Tim Tebow will never be a good NFL QB, he is a horrible passer with decent elusiveness and alot of heart. Not a great combination. He is a slower, less accurate version of Vick (which i didn't think was possible). The Broncos need to go back to Orton as quickly as possible, not that it will matter in the end but he has a better chance at being their starter of the future. He can at least complete passes.


Why on earth would you go back to Orton now? They know they're not going to the playoffs now, so it's better to play Tebow and see what he can do and make an assessment at the end of the season. Tebow's already won as many games as Orton this year anyway.


Because Tebow is not an NFL QB, he would be better off in the Arena league, if its even still around.  

But Orton has proved in the past that he can win,  he is a decent QB.  The Broncos are just a bad team,  they keep trading away or getting rid of all their good players.  And surrounding Tebow with talent isnt going to help him out,  all it will do is hurt the other players trying to be developed. 

Orton last year threw for 3700 yards with 20 TDs and 9 INTs.  in 13 games.  The fact that they went only 3-10 in those games proves that he isnt the problem and never was.   Those numbers come to 4500 yards and 25 TDs and 11 INTs if stretched to 16 games,  those are damn near Pro Bowl numbers.

What happened against Miami was a fluke, and Tebow is a joke in the NFL.

That last statement is just hyperbole. He's started 5 games, two this year, which he's 1-1 in. I suppose you're just going to ignore the Chargers game earlier this year where Orton was mediocre at best the entire game and Tebow started moving the ball down the field and kept the Broncos in the game. I do agree that the Broncos are bad. They have an awful defense, just traded away their best WR, and Magahee got injured as well, but the Tebow "he's not an NFL QB lulz" argument is nothing but hyperbole at this point.

Also, Orton is not signed through this year and Tebow is, so why wouldn't you see if he can improve over the course of a season?
