Tebow - makes all underdogs PROUD. It's funny to see the prognosticators and experts squirm and look silly because they can't explain it. There will always be those who will hate because they don't understand or it doesn't make sense to them . They will point to the stats because thats all they have and I will point to the scoreboard. Tebow's spirit is only one of a million stories that happen everyday whether at home, school or work that prove the human spirit is greater than size, ability, talent or money. Sometimes the victory goes to those who want it more and believes in BIGGER ways. I'm sure Tebow is going to lose along the way, but for the time being. this is fun. Journey put it BEST - Don't stop Believing.

Just think about it. It would have been a nice story after 1 or 2 comeback wins. The odds of doing what that team is doing, and more importantly how they're doing it is unreal. The situations they keep digging themselves out of is just ridiculous. And they do it almost every single week. It's crazy.

Bobby Hebert says its divine intervention.

Idk but he has to be feeling heat from people he works with. But I'm sure it draws ratings.

nothing hodge says is wrong. He says tebow needs to improve in order to continue to be a successful passer in the NFL and if you don't agree with that you are dumb. That being said hodge does seem to go out of his way to not give tebow credit and seems to really be annoyed that he keeps winning and that is why he has taken so much heat and he deserves it but tebow still does need to improve as a passer

Blame being in the south and having played against the guy a few times only a short while ago.

And blame sports news!

this being said, he is on a winning team, i don't think he is the reason his record is 7-1 though

Some people are missing the point. Yes, he was a highly touted high school QB, Heisman florida QB and 1st round draft choice. But the point is - most experts think he could never make it and win in the NFL because he is not the typical QB with the x's and o's. But he has proven them wrong and he does not quit.. His teammates are living off his energy, enthusiasm and faith. No, he doesn't make the kicks, plays defense , etc. But he is their leader and that's what matters the most. Tebow is the TRUE underdog in the NFL who is leading his team to the playoffs.

I am loving the Tebow story. If you don't see what is happening here, I can't help you. EVERYONE said he would fail in the NFL. But, he is pulling out miracles every week.

Haters gonna hate.

I am just loving what I am seeing. The whole nation is being caught up in this.
