What would make you think that Tebow would have had no real value as a backup QB? Did you not see him in 2010 when the Donks would send Tebow into the game in short yardage & goal-to-go situations in place of Kyle Orton and employed him as a dual-threat runner & passer? What would make you think the Donks couldn't deploy Tebow in that same manner behind Manning? I suspect what you are suggesting is born out of being an Elway sheep, thinking Elway could do no wrong. Look what has happened from 2016 on to the present with the Donks. It has been nothing but abyss & are you going to con yourself into thinking Elway had no hand in that? |

And, I’ve discussed all the Tebow I care to discuss really. I don’t recall many, if any, people being too shocked with the move. Appears you want to have an Elway is terrible conversation. There are plenty here willing to entertain you. He was not a great GM and made quite a few errors in the draft.

Wouldn't call it "hope" as I have no desire for the Steelers to be good. I just remember when Russ looked like he was on a Hall of Fame track. Was surprised by how bad it went in Denver. If he bounces back to being who he was in Seattle it kind of unlocks a new level of dysfunction for Denver, which is hard to do at this point.

PIT was doing well before he got the start and they beat a … what was he called a few weeks ago… a “washed Rodgers” and Jets team in PIT. Nice win, but I’m not about to think Denver made a mistake in letting him go.

You're right that it's a very small sample size so far. He'll need to really get and keep rolling to fully shake off the stink of the past two years. |

Garbage, garbage, garbage, rainbow ball to Pickens. Garbage, garbage, garbage, rainbow ball to Pickens. Wash, rinse, repeat. We'll see what a few more weeks brings. |

Just like 2023, just replace Pickens for Sutton.

![]() Look at where Elway ranked all-time at retirement and his accomplishments. Look at what Elway did with Reeves vs Phillips and Shanahan. Reeves was uber conservative and wasted a lot of Elways early years. That’s all that I will say about that topic. Tebow was an interesting experiment and few players have the passion and leadership that he had, but he was not starting QB material.

Believe me, I have looked at Elway's so-called "accomplishments" & the most glaring one is that no QB in the history of the Super Bowl that played in multiple SB games STUNK UP THE FIELD worse than Elway did in the SB. Quite an accomplishment, right? Don't try to sell me the copout of Reeves being responsible for Elway being a turd -- it was Elway responsible for that all by his lonesome. How do we know this? Because Roger Staubach, Danny White, Craig Morton, Phil Simms, and Chris Chandler all did just fine under Reeves. The statement about Reeves being "uber-conservative" is nothing but a parroted LIE, and all one has to do is look at SB 22 to see an example on the Donks 1st Offensive series (as well as a whole slew of other games from that era). |

Similar in the sense that the defense is carrying them, but the scores are not like they were in the Tebow season.
