Somehow, over the course of my time at a rival SEC school, through Tebow's drafting and time in the NFL, I have done the unthinkable. I am a Tim Tebow fan.
Now, I am not one of those raving lunatics that thinks he is an awesome quarterback. I don't think that in terms of the throws that most NFL quarterbacks can make that Tebow is on the same level. I question his accuracy, his throwing motion, and a few other things. However, that said, Tim Tebow is a winner.
It does not matter what happens, what his stats are, or if he ever plays another down of NFL football for the Denver Broncos. Tim Tebow, is quite simply (and I suppose always has been) a winner. During the Broncos overtime victory of the Steelers today I found myself going absolutely crazy when Tebow launched the football to his receiver on the first play of overtime, and going wild as the Steelers were sent packing by the subsequent touchdown.
More than anything else, what I would love to have today is videos of all the Tebow naysayers at the beginning of the season, follow them through the winning streak, then the losing streak, and then the playoff victory, enjoying a chuckle at the wildly varying inconsistencies in their view of Tebow's potential as a NFL quarterback. It really is phenomenal how quickly people can hop on and off the bandwagon.
All of that said, Tebow is a winner, and I am a fan. I'm looking forward to the next game against the Patriots, at the very least just to see what everyone has to say before and after the game.
