Is Tebow seriously the real deal?

I totally can't figure out Tebow.

His detractors say that he's not a typical quarterback, he doesn't have the mechanics, and that the college game doesn't translate to the pros.

His supporters say that all of that doesn't matter. Wins are all that matter. And geez, he sure is winning a bunch of games, a couple of ugly showings notwithstanding.

So who's right here? Does Tebow have a future in the NFL as a quarterback?

I know elbow, and Strongbow and longbow.
What's a Tebow?

He'll never be the quarterback of the Dallas Cowboys.

He's not going to last more than 4 years playing the way he does either. If he can develop into a pocket passer as he ages, he may survive longer than that. I don't see him finishing next year as the starter though. I could be wrong. It happened once before.

He was wrong once before. But I think he was mistaken.

As much as I don't want to admit it, you are probably right.

I believe that answer has been clearly outlined in the thread tag since this thread's inception.

So, um...you should know, dude.

My team made him look pretty good today. Pitt could maybe handle the injuries or the awful referees but not both. They really missed Ryan Clark and his absence gave Tebow the opportunity to get his confidence back.
