    I guess you are just so used to being wrong that it doesn't phase you any more.

    I'll take that as proof that you have nothing of value to say. Would have been helpful to us all if you had just admitted that a few posts back, but better late than never.

    It certainly seems to me that if a QB of shall we say questionable passing accuracy is told to never, ever, throw an interception, he might throw more incompletions as a result. When in doubt, don't aim at the human beings.
     
  6. To Michael's point above - the Broncos were 1-4 with Kyle Orton to start the season. Orton threw the ball much more but still only had 8 TD passes but also had 7 INT's. It was the INT's the did the Broncos in those games. Tebow doesn't throw INT's.

    I also doubt Tebow is forcing passes into tight areas, as would other quarterbacks who think highly of their Farvian arms.

    Can we make a list of the worst things that can happen on an offensive play?

    I will start with...
    Interception
    Fumble
    Sack
    Holding
    Clipping
    Intentional grounding
    Offsides
    Pass interference
    Hands to the face
    Facemask
    Chop block


    What am I missing?

    Going backwards is the worst thing you can do on a play from scrimmage. I don't know the answer to this, but how many times does Tebow go backwards on a play?

    Who knows? Maybe Tebow never wins another game? But if this keeps up, there has to be a reason, and the defense is only part of this equasion.

    The worst thing that can happen on a football play is the universe spontaneously transforms into an eternal hell dimension of infinite pain and suffering.
