All the college accolades in the world don’t mean squat once you get your first paycheck. Just as true for football players as everybody else in the world. Once you’re a pro it’s your professional accomplishments that matter. And Tebow’s professional accomplish basically add up to completing a few passes while his defense kept it close, except in the games when the defense couldn’t keep it close. 4 training camps, 3 teams, 4 coaches, always 3rd on the depth chart.

The same reason we don’t call people that finish pre-med “doctor”.

It’s pretty much how it was for Tebow’s UF predecessor, Danny Wuerffel. Great College career, not such much in the NFL.....Lot’s of great college QBs don’t pan out in the NFL...and look at the great NFL QBs that nobody really thought about in college, Tom Brady is one who immediately comes to mind.

Tebow has a winning NFL record and a playoff win. In the games where he played well, which was the majority, he did an exceptional job of ball control and scoring efficiency.

His denver stint was just a ploy to keep his twiitterers going.. he should have bulked up and become a fullback.
