great stats here....thanks
I think people confuse the correlation of Tebow in 2011 with the causation. Essentially he led a Broncos team that is 23-5 since he left with a 35+ year old Peyton Manning to an 8-8 record and a playoff victory over the a Steelers team that is 13-15 since and set miss the playoffs for a second straight season.
The fact is he was unable maintain a roster spot on a team with the worst QBs in the NFL the Jets and then Belichick saw more value in players such as Mulligan being on this roster. I think if players like Boyce, Bequette and Beauharnias clearly indicate that Belichick will use a spot on the 53 man roster if he is able to see some long term upside, he apparently did not see any in Tim.
The ironic thing about 2011 is that it is probably the thing that prevents Tebow from assuming his ideal NFL position as practice squad QB.
Let this be a lesson to all those complaining including myself in Hightower thread the 25th overall pick could always be worse
