tim tebow...

I remember when Michael Vick came out of prison a few years ago and the so-called experts said he wouldn't be an effective NFL quarterback anymore.  He was too far removed from the game and his style didn't mesh in the NFL.  Many had to eat their words.  Vick is the most exciting player in the the league and a top five quarterback.

Tebow isn't Vick, but their styles have some similarities.  I think it's too early to tell if Tebow will be an decent QB in the league.   My goodness,  the Niner Alex Smith was also coached in college by Urban Meyer and up until this season he was generally viewed as a bust, especially since he was the number one pick in the 2005 draft.   Having Jim Harbaugh as his head coach has helped Smith flourish this season- his seventh year in the league.  I don't think Denver head coach John Fox and offensive coordinator Mike McCoy are good fits for Tebow's talent.  

It's all about wins.  Tebow is 1-1 as a starter this season.   Denver plays at Oakland this Sunday.  After the Raiders got shellacked by the Kansas City two Sundays ago, they need a win over the Broncos.   And hopefully, the Raiders sell out, so I can watched the game on television.   Tebow is good TV...
