BB, you have to agree, RichRod's an ass.

Great post, I agree.




That was easy, you didn't quote one of my posts.

Guess what Florida fans....the national beat(off) writers are starting to anoint Tebow as the "best ever"....

The last time this happened, Texas beat the supposed "Best team EVA!!!!!" in USC.

And the time before that, Oklahoma lost to Kansas State and LSU back-to-back.

And Miami before that in 2002

Fine starting FB

He led the team with 8 rushing TD's. I agree he didn't "lead" the team to the National Title, but I think when you list his resume you have to say he was an important factor in two National Titles.

Almost all of those were dive plays at the goal line.

Never said he was Percy Harvin, but he was their goal line guy. Can't discredit him because thats what they needed him to do.

Sure you can,when you're looking for a reason to discredit someone.

Jehuu Caulcrick rushed for 21 td's in '07. Just sayin'.

Nothing wrong with the observation, but there is one word in that post that stretches its intended definition a tad beyond the breaking point, no?

 

[NFBuck]

Tim Tebow? Never heard of him.

Texas?? Thank God!

Now, if you'd said Charleston Southern....

Glad someone's else sees it. He's a good kid but the Ned Flanders act gets old quick.

The over bearing religious [censored] is annoying. The 4 million "lets go's" a game are annoying as [censored] if you play with a guy like that. Being the coaches boy and an absolute ass kisser is even more annoying than the incessant "lets go's".

I guess it goes back to Stablers quote about leaders who are milk drinkers and leaders who are whiskey drinkers. Just something about the overtly religious milk drinkers I don't like or trust.

I completely agree. I'm sure he's a nice person and all, but he hams it up. It reminds me of the Ben Stiller part on Happy Gilmore. It's almost as if he is turning his image into an enterprise.

Stewart Mandel uses fantasy football scoring to compare Tebow to other QBs of the past 25 years.

His rankings yield these scores (combining 3 charts of his):

01. 983.38 Pat White
02. 898.20 Vince Young
03. 859.28 Colt Brennan
04. 843.90 Matt Leinart
05. 831.00 Tim Tebow (still in college)
06. 828.55 Eric Crouch
07. 826.59 Graham Harrell
08. 793.09 Colt McCoy (still in college)
09. 781.58 Danny Wuerfful
10. 772.30 Ty Detmer
11. 766.61 Chase Daniel
12. 740.51 Peyton Manning
13. 736.56 Tommy Frazier
14. 695.97 Ken Dorsey

The scoring methodology is in the quote below. Sorry, Jax, but he didn't include Brad Smith.

With one year left, Tebow well positioned to become all-time best
...

So here's what I did. I looked up the career statistics of every Heisman-winning quarterback or Heisman finalist who has played for a national championship team since 1984 and applied the most widely used statistical formula out there: fantasy football scoring. Anyone who's ever played in a fantasy league knows there's a standard scoring system used by most leagues:

- One point for every 25 passing yards or 10 rushing yards
- Four points for every passing touchdown; six points for every rushing touchdown
- Minus-two points for every interception thrown

In addition to these five categories, I added completion percentage. Once I obtained the raw score, I multiplied it by the most important category of all, career winning percentage (as starter), to come up with a final "greatness score."

Cont'd ...

Well if Stewart Mandel says it, it must be true. I take it all back.

Pat White is clearly the greatest QB of all time and I agree that Eric Crouch and 11 others were better than Tommy Frazier.

I also agree that Crouch should be 6 spots higher than Peyton Manning in any list of QB's that is ranking them from best to worst.
