Germans? Searched and didn't find anything, but I've whiffed on searches before. Anyway...

quote:

“Can you believe ’15’?” one Detroit Lions defender asked after his team’s 45-10 immolation of Tebow and the Denver Broncos. “Come on – that’s embarrassing. I mean, it’s a joke. We knew all week that if we brought any kind of defensive pressure, he couldn’t do anything. In the second half it got boring out there. We were like, ‘Come on – that’s your quarterback? Seriously?’ ”


quote:

“As long as he felt our pressure,” said Lions defensive end Cliff Avril(notes), whose third-quarter sack/fumble/recovery/return produced one of Detroit’s two defensive scores, “he was gonna make crazy decisions.”

Lions destroyed them but not because Tebow sucks, but because they have a worse Oline then Tulane.

They could have said that about pretty much every player for the Broncos. Seriously the whole team just sucks.

Clearly they hate Tebow for his faith. Anybody who criticizes Tim Tebow's on field performance hates him and wants to be proven right. John Fox and John Elway are purposely sabotaging Tebow with their scheme so that he can fail and they can be proven right and John Elway's star will not be eclipsed in Denver.

So what does that make the Miami Dolphins? Why doesn't somebody come out and call Rex Grossman embarrassing, didn't he quarterback the Redskins to 0 points last week? Did the Saints call the Colts embarrassing after what they did to them?

Seems like a lot of no-name Detroit Lions are jealous.

As bad as Tebow played, he still had more fantasy points than Drew Brees and Philip Rivers

Ok yes NFL QB. But this o-line bullshite is annoying. Orton was only sacked 9 times with the same o-line. Tebows been sacked 13 times. The problem is that tebow needs people to be wide open vs slightly open

No he cannot play College, but to say he's a terrible QB in general is stupid. He was one of the best college QB's ever, but he doesn't transition well into the next level like a lot of black college Qb's don't.

Those guys can complete more than 40% of their passes when teams aren't playing prevent or have the backup defenders in the game...

This...

I am a fan of a team that may as well be considered the new Oakland Raiders

Josh McDaniels KILLED this team when he took over. Just clearly dismantled it from head to toe

I think we can all agree that Tebow is just another in a long line of Florida QB's who just are not good in the NFL. They are Kings at Florida, but that just doesn't translate to the NFL.

The Lions have been an awful team for the past 15 years, and many of them played on the worst team in NFL history a few years ago.

They need to shut the frick up.

The Lions were a nice story early on. I hate these frickers more as every week goes by. They act like they have won something.

I hope they come back to Lions reality soon.

And their history of QBs before Stafford was abysmal...so they should know.

They have the most cred.

Yeah, they do seem like a bunch of douchers after their comments over the past few weeks.
