All those QBs have higher completion percentages that Tim. The simple fact is Tim got a BUNCH of chances, more than most QBs with his highly limited talent, and he simply did not prove to be up the task. Tebow worshipers need to get over it, he was not an NFL caliber QB, he proved it over course of 5 years working with 4 teams. The will is there, the talent is not.

“All those QBs have higher completion percentages that Tim.”
Still, Tebow has an above average win record as a starting NFL quarterback, plus a playoff win over the champion (at the time) Steelers.
Most NFL quarterbacks that have played the game can’t say that.
But Tebow’s presence in the NFL was a circus. People talking about the game all week; news cameras and microphones; people buying T-shirts; people going to the games and filling seats and talking out loud in the stands. It was real disrespectful. It was just too much - a real circus.
I will agree with you that he’s no Johnnie Manziel (0-0 in 2015) or Colin Kaepernick (1-10 in 2016). But if you can say with a straight face that Charlie Whitehurst (0-1 in 2016)or Cody Kessler (0-8 as a pro) was a better pro QB, we just have different standards of ‘better’.
