As Expected, Tebow's Terrible

Since the Skins are so bad on every dimension that matters, perhaps a brief diversion is in order. Today Tim Tebow has thrown for 100 yards and 1 TD. Oh, to be clear, this was to the Detroit Lions defense. To his own offense he has thrown for 84 yards and 0 TDs. (Note. This post was written at the beginning of the 4th quarter; Tebow added some yards in junk time).

Two weeks ago this blog took a stand: "Tebow has no chance this year to be an effective QB." Sure enough, last week Tebow played terribly for 3 and 1/2 quarters. But he completed two passes late in the game that helped the Broncos come back to beat the absolute worst team in the league (Miami Dolphins), and somehow this led some to feel that maybe Tebow could do well this year.

Well, this week through three quarters Tim Tebow is 8 of 20 for 84 yards, 2 fumbles, and a pick-six interception. The Lions have more yards receiving off Tebow throws than Tebow's Broncos. Tebow is not just terrible, but Terrible. Heath Shuler terrible. Ryan Leaf Terrible. JaMarcus Russell Terrible.

Oh, but Tebow has GREAT intangibles.
