    He proved that by having one of the best years of his entire career as a Viking, after he left the Jets.

    I don't suppose it ever crossed your mind that both of those decisions (Favre & Tebow) might have been made because the Jets coaches/front office had less than full confidence in their QB situation at that time....hmmmm???

    I could agree with that if the QB they picked up was a better QB than the one they already had. But that is not the case w/ Tebow.

    Hello, I am not a huge fan of Tebow. I think the sky is blue.

    *Sits and waits for Tebow fans to challenge color of the sky as blue*

    That remains to be seen, it is hardly settled fact, no matter how many times you want to try and say that it is. We will see by the end of the season whether or not Woody's decision was one that helped the Jets more than it hurt them. We also may (or may not) have a more definitive answer at that time as to who is the better QB.

    By the way, not that you need reminding, but Tebow holds the head-to-head win record against Sanchez.

    If you don't like Tebow you have no interest in blue sky, you like to sit in your one bedroom studio in Newark and suffer with Grey, Gotham skies.

    Generally when we say something is blue we mean what dye or filter is in the material that only reflects or transmits blue light. In the case of water and the atmosphere (and for that matter the feathers of a bluebird) neither is the case - there is nothing reflecting the blue and absorbing all other colours (like a paint) or only passing blue light (like a piece of blue glass)

    A bit of background:
    The white light from the sun is a mixture of all colours of the spectrum. Each colour of light ahas a wavelength. The visible part of the spectrum ranges from red light (wavelength =720 nm), to violet (wavelength =380 nm), with orange, yellow, green, blue and indigo between. The human eye reacts most strongly to strongly to red, green and blue wavelengths. This gives us colour vision.

    The explanation:
    Light passing through a clear fluid with suspended particles is scattered. Some wavelengths like blue are scattered more strongly. The first person to notice this and experiment with it was John Tyndall in 1859. So he got to name the effect the Tyndall Effect. He made three important observations:

    •From the side, (the way we see most of the sunlight in the sky) the beam can be seen by the blue light it scatters.
    •The light seen directly at the end (looking towards the source) is red. This is the way we see the sunlight at sunset.

    •The scattered light is polarized. This is why polarized sun glasses make some parts of the sky seem darker.


    Some early researchers, Tyndall and Rayleigh, thought that the blue colour of the sky must be due to small particles of dust and droplets of water vapour in the sky. Later scientists discounted this, and proposed that oxygen and nitrogen molecules are the cause of the scattering.
    In 1911 Einstein did the math to prove that the molecules could cause the scattering. Technically the molecules scatter light because the electromagnetic field of the light waves induces electric dipole moments in the O2 and N2 molecules.

    (tongue firmly in cheek)

    By the way, Sanchez out performed Brady in the AFC Divisional Round in New England while Tebow got destroyed in the same game a year later.

    When your not getting called out for not knowing anything and pretending you do.

    After all John Fox and Elway are still employed in Denver.

    not taking anything away from Sanchez, but comparing how he did against a team the year prior is kinda apples and oranges. Bothe teams went 0-2 Vs the pats last year IIRC

    By the way, Ben Roethlisberger beat Tom Brady last year and then got beat by Tim Tebow in the Playoffs. We can play this game all day.

    My point was that Tebow won the only "head-to-head" match-up with Mark Sanchez. Did you have a point?

    That's funny, because the sky is not blue.

    If he was better he would probably cost 15 million a year unless it was through the draft and there was no way they could have two of them at that price. Actually that's not true, there are probably a lot of QBs better than Sanchez that aren't making near what he makes but in Tannenbaum's eyes...well that's a different story.

    Nor is Tebow a real QB, so it balances out.

    If Rex had any balls he'd cut Tebow.

    If the Romans had any balls they'd crucify Christ.

    No. Bowlen and Elway brought Manning to Denver because it was the only way to get out from under Tim Tebow. Elway did not want him QBing the Broncos any more because of the way he played at the end of last season. Yeah he beat the Steelers but he looked absolutely pitiful against everybody else down the stretch and Elway knew that Tebow's 15 minutes was up.

    You guys made him go get Manning to get rid of Elway though. He was damned if he did and damned if he didn't otherwise. With Tebow the Broncos are capped and probably suck but the Tebow-ites keep chanting anyway next season. Without him they might well wind up with a bad record as the next Qb failed. Manning was the only solution, since even the Tebow-ites couldn't say Tebow should start over him.

    When Tim Tebow was at Florida he was in his perfect place. He was better than all the other athletes around him and he played against boys. Since he hit the NFL the reality has emerged. He plays against men now and he's not better than all the other athletes when he's at QB. If he really wants to be better than all the other athletes again he better find a position that he can do that at. QB isn't it.
