You conveniently ignore that the only shot Tebow had in the playoffs, he led his team to a win against the tough Steelers D, and the next game against the Pats the Broncos D let up 35 points in the first half and rendered Denver's chances in that game hopeless.
Its most certainly NOT a fact that Tebow couldn't take a team to the top though.

I didn't ignore anything. I said he could win regular season games and even win a playoff game, which he has done. I don't think he is good enough to take his team to a Superbowl unless that team is down right loaded with talent in all other areas. And as we all know few teams are perfect in every area. There are always going to be weaknesses. I for one don't one the QB to be one of the biggest weakness on my team and Tebow is more a weakness than a strength.
What BS? I said he isn't accurate. That is just fact. He only completed 46.5% of his passes. That can't even be categorized as average.
He had 11 starts last year and produced 217.2 yards per game. That too is not even considered average. Keep in mind, that is 217.2 yards including passing yards and rushing yards. His passing numbers were 157.2 yards per game. This is a passing league, so that isn't going to cut it.
You don't need to have the best QB in the league to win championships. If you have a very good all around team then you can get by with someone who isn't the top guy. Still you need a guy who is better than average and at least in the top half of the league. Tebow was not one of the top 16 QBs last season. If you don't have that then you better have an all time great defense to cover for his lack of production. As you pointed out and put all the blame on, the Broncos didn't have an all time great defense last year. The result was a blow out
And it is ridiculous when someone says that when Tebow gets a chance he produces as a way to insinuate that he isn't getting a chance now. He gets a chance every time he goes to team meetings and straps on the pads during practice. Those are his chances to show something to the coaches and staff. He fails.
