Stats will serve him well in the NFL. Just ask Vince Young (who you imply is the standard bearer).
I was really only referring to td/int ratio (thats why i copy/pasted the specific blurb). i just provided the link to the article to show it wasn't a bs stat. obviously, a running qb will be towards the top of that list. i also don't remember ever mentioning anything about vince young and never pointed to the entire article, or list, for proof that since tebow has been great in college it will carry over to the nfl. but true to form, you stuck words in my mouth.
all i'm saying is that, according to you, he is a horrible passer who has no chance of ever amounting to anything, yet he has a better td/int ratio, qb rating, etc., than some very successful nfl qbs, including mcnabb and peyton.
I know, i know- it's because of a system, other players, urban meyer, the economy, etc. anything but the fact that he can move the ball effectively through the air.
i guess i'm old fashioned but i think numbers, in their purest, unmanipulated form, paint a pretty good picture. better, anyway, than that of a handful of opinions saying tebow will be a failure because his throwing motion is unorthodox (btw, there are a handful of ex-nfl qb's, along with current scouts and coaches, who feel strongly otherwise. sorry, don't feel like grabbing a link, so that has to be false, too, i guess).
and before you go sticking words in my mouth again, i am in no way implying that tebow will be better than peyton. all i'm saying is that he's been a pretty damn good passer so far (in the SEC, mind you) and there is no reason to believe he has
no chance of being moderately successful in the nfl (oh wait- except, ofcourse, that his ball doesn't look pretty enough as it's flying through the air).
