I'm not a Brady fan by any means, but gimme a break!

That "swell guy" was drafted in the 6th round; he didn't have hoards of rabid fans chanting for him to start over Bledsoe, he didn't make his faith a polarizing issue, he just learned the system his coach put in place and did his damn job.

Tebow is a byproduct of the media, plain and simple. If that's not the case then every athletically gifted option QB in college footbal would have a place on an NFL roster as a QB.
