    Ok, well Tebow has thrown much better balls than that one, but the point of me asking you if you were a Steelers' fan is because you said "unfortunately" they played that defense which "allowed" the throw. That indicates that you were wishing he did not complete the pass.

    Interesting note about that pass... it was a busted play. Royal admitted later that he ran the wrong route. Tebow gets lambasted for not being able to go through progressions (which is completely false, BTW), but if you watch the video, he goes through all the receivers and spots Royal open in a place he shouldn't be, but still nails it perfectly. That is why I don't think people should get so caught up over him missing Stephen Hill last week. 99 times out of 100, Tebow makes that throw.

    I'll throw in that throw he had in the game tying drive against the Dolphins last year -- it's almost too good it's so good. But man, he threw it -- time was running out, it was time to lay it in there and take a chance, and he put where only the tight end could catch it.

    I don't have a video of just that throw -- it's at 1:47 of this video, which actually breaks down the whole drive.

    You cant be serious...

    That was one of the lamest ducks Tebow has ever thrown, coupled with one of the greatest catches of the season, by any player.

    Ignore the fact that the announcers were blowing Tebow all game. Nice spiral Tim.

    Yep, doesn't matter if the ball's on target, noooo. The important thing is that it's a pretty spiral.

    Still claiming that he didn't hit DT in stride on the OT TD against Pitt ? Or have you given that one up ??

    If you don't watch that video and see the several outstanding throws Tebow made, then you really have a problem. Why don't you just come out and say that you hate Tebow for whatever non-football reason you have and stop pretending it is about the way he plays.

    BTW, Peyton Manning does not throw perfect spirals. Does it really matter? Tebow throws a more consistent spiral than Peyton Manning. But Peyton Manning gets the ball where it needs to be. So please stop with the rhetoric about lame duck wobbly passes.
