Proof (in my mind) that Rex didn't want Tebow

    So he acknowledges that Tebow can't be happy with the way they've handled him and admits he wouldn't let him pass. Interesting.

    from what it looks like from some of the articles that published more extensive quotes the disappointing part was in reagards to the failure of the wildcat and not getting chances to be on the field. The no-throw part was because Rex is still concerned about unnecessary shot to Tebows ribs and giving jags fans a thrill is not worth the chance of further injury. Just the way I read it. Personally I don't think there is or was a conspiracy theory

    Fox didn't want to let him pass either.

    Funny how two coaches seem to be avoiding it like the plague, and the Tebowners (who DON'T see him work every day, and only pay attention to the hilights of the one out of a dozen plays he does right) insist the guys (who DO see him work every day) are full of it.

    ...and why WOULDN'T a competetive guy like that be disappointed with spending 98% of his time on the sidelines? He says all the right stuff to the media about helping the team any way he can, but we should all know damn well that he thinks he should be out there. For once I'd like to see him admit it rather than giving the typical canned answer to the media that he's uttered whenever he's not starting. OF COURSE he's disappointed.

    I disagree. If Rex was really concerned about Tebow's ribs and didn't want to expose him to that, he should have left him deactivated for the next week.

    ...and besides, what would Rex care? There are 3 games left. Playoffs are a longshot at best. Tebow hasn't figured much into the game plan up to this point, and likely doesn't in any road to a playoff spot. Signs are pointing to Tebow not being on the team next year....

    Probably should have just left him deactivated. One might argue that they wre in his home town, but somehow I'm doubting Rex gave a rat's ass about that. All Tebow did was sit on the bench anyway. He could have done that in street clothes.

    Except when his garbage game plan didn't work and they asked Tebow to throw in the 4th quarter. Then you have Tebow with the highest QBR in the 4th quarter of any NFL QB.

    Sanchez 12/19 for 111 yards last week. Rex didn't exactly let him throw either. Fox wasn't exactly an offensive genius in Carolina either. Peyton Manning is the reason they have an offense this year in Denver. He has no option but to listen to HOF Peyton Manning (the real Broncos HC) in regards to the offense.

    Would also point out that Rex isn't Belichik, i.e. during "mop up time", none of our QBs would be out there flinging the ball around.

    A lot of quarterbacks look better against prevent defenses. I will give tebow props for exploiting it though, since not every player that has played QB has. Orton found new and creative ways to lose. Still remember that game against the jets during the 4-12 season where he was driving downfield, looked like they had a shot to win it. After all, they drove down the field not long before. Low and behold, he drops the snap, jets recover... game over.

    That canard has been busted so many times. The Bears weren't in a prevent defense, neither were the Jets.

    That you continue to lie about it is very telling.

    :lol:

    Let's go ahead and look at Tebow's highlights for those games. Here is the first 55 minutes of the Tebow led offense against the Jets:

    [​IMG]

    Only 7 3-and-outs, and 8 punts. Pretty standard for Tebow. He redefined shitty quarterback play.

    Now here is the first 55 minutes of the Tebow led offense against the Cutler-less Bears, before Marion Barber so graciously gave us the game:

    [​IMG]

    Again, another 7 3-and-outs, plus a 4-and out. But this time, on top of his 8 punts, he added a pick and a lost fumble. Rock solid job of shitting the bed, Tim.

    But, but, but... the Denver defense didn't carry Tebow! He engineered comebacks!!

    :lol:

    What a fucking joke.

    Run Run pass on third and long will do that to you. they were getting 2 yards per attempt rushing vs the jets if you take out Tebow's numbers, yet they ran the ball almost 60% of the time.

    The bears was a rough one though,it is a bit disengenuous to highlight the pick as that INT was the first in 6 games, but it was boring football for sure. PFF.com gave him a positive grade for that game, so there were obviously other things going on during that game, they say there were 5 dropped passes, so I suppose that should be taken in to consideration

    Yeah, busted.... in your own mind maybe. Myopia must be a beautiful thing.

    Don't take my word for it then. How about someone that was on the field? WWhat the hell would Brian Urlacher know? :grin:

    http://content.usatoday.com/communi...roncos-qb-tim-tebow-hes-a-good-running-back/1

    Urlacher suggested the Bears were able to shut down Tebow when they were playing with a single safety deep and only started relenting yards when they switched to their patented Cover-2 look late in the game while trying to protect a 10-0 fourth-quarter lead.

    Hmmmm, If you don't mind, I think I'll take HIS word for it over yours. They changed things up, backed off to limit the big play... pretty much what happens in prevent.

    Prior to the change up... (according to the same article.)

    Asked specifically about Tebow's passing proficiency -- he was 3-for-16 for 45 yards with an INT through three quarters before going 18-for-24 for 191 yards with a TD down the stretch and improving to 7-1 as Denver's starter --

    Yep, bad move. Don't go into prevent (or something like it for "Mr. technicality" here...) They let him off the hook. If they would have stuck with what worked ALL DAY, they would have won 10 - 0. just like KC.

    Yes they did. Called plays that always left it 3rd and 8.

    ...and why do you suppose they did that?

    I think it was because they had even less faith in his passing.

    Yeah, sounds like a good :lol: opportunity until you look at the whole game and not the cherry-picked stats.

    Tebow went 18-24 passing for 191 yards and a TD after the 3rd quarter.

    So... :lol: to that.

    Yeah, because the bears backed off into a prevent type of game. Urlacher admitted it, why not you?

    Urlacher "admitted it"? :rofl:

    Let me school you on the concept of an admission. It benefits Urlacher to make up an excuse. If Urlacher had "admitted" to playing normal defense while getting schooled, then that qualifies as an admission. An excuse is not an admission.

    But furthermore, who's fault is it that the vaunted Bears D and coaching staff played prevent, if that is what in fact happened? They knew very well that the 4th quarter was Tebow Time. Should have smartened up. Only when Tebow is the QB do you hear such absurdities as, "the other team was in prevent, therefore the win doesn't count."

    Nothing cherry picked about it. I stated that both drive summaries were for the first 55 minutes. You know, 92% of the game.

    This is just a guess, but I wouldn't be surprised if Tebow had more 3-and-outs in those 2 games than the Broncos have had this entire season.

    since when did "cover 2" become "prevent"... those are two vastly different things.

    A win is a win is a win. It absolutely still counts as a win. The fact that it had very, very little to do with Tim Tebow is something entirely different.

    And as far as 'Tebow Time' goes, it no longer resides in just the 4th quarter. Tebow Time happens all game, every week. It just happens on the bench.
