16. Tebow is a quarterback.

A successful quarterback. An award-winning quarterback.

Since 2011, post-season NFL wins:

Tim Tebow - 1
Mark Sanchez - 0
Sam Bradford - 0

I am neither a Gator's fan (Roll Tide!) or an evangelical (Hail Satan!), but Tebow is one of the best options QB's to ever play. He has great heart and an absolute iron-clad will to play - quarterback.

In a league plagued with bad press and criminals like Hernandez and Rice, why is Tebow so vilified for being a good guy?

The shit Ryan did to him at NY was despicable. Tebow took the 'coaching' advice, and:

After he was cut by New England just before the 2013 regular season, 18 months ago, Tebow went to meet with Tom House on the advice of Tom Brady. House, who pitched eight years in the big leagues and also served as an assistant baseball coach at USC, runs a business tutoring "rotational" athletes on mechanics. It's attracted a host of NFL quarterbacks, including Brady himself and Drew Brees.

"What amazes me is this young man, with no job prospects, has prepared just as hard as he would if he were the No. 1 quarterback for an NFL team," House said over the phone Monday night. "He's busted his butt. He spins the ball better than he did and he's much more accurate than he was. I think he's ready."
