Time to sit at home for Denver Broncos’ Tim Tebow - Part 1
How things ended up for one man from the Denver Broncos was pretty odd and strange. It was never being expected that way by his fans or teammates. All along the season a mad sensation prevailed everywhere. It was surrounding the Denver Broncos’ quarterback,
Tim Tebow. He stayed in the news all along the season.
Many kept commending the quarterback and newspapers were full of Tebow news. Hype had been generated in the media with many pointing out to Tebow time and a lot of exaggerated accounts of his so called heroics and performances existed.
Where did all that go away? Was not the hero supposed to lead his team to the Super Bowl?
All that fame that Tebow boasted of went down the drain as did hopes of Broncos to reach the Super Bowl.
Tom Brady and the New England Patriots came out this Saturday to deliver a massive blow to Tebow and there was no way how they could survive the Patriots onslaught.
Tebow’s failure does not go down merely to this one game. He had been failing much before that but there was no way his fans could see to it. They were driven with the optimism that Tebow will make it. So, when he finally failed to make it, there would have
been lots of broken hearts and angry tears.
That goes very much on account of his failed performance when he could not come up to the mark when his team very much needed it.
What many of his supporters failed to realise was the simple fact that the National Football League (NFL) has many better quarterbacks out there in on the field and Tebow surely is not one of them.
And Patriots’ quarterback, Tom Brady is certainly one of them.
And not to forget Kyle Orton of the Kansas City Chiefs off course who also turns out to be Tebow’s former team mate.
Tebow’s shortcomings earlier on went unnoticed as the craze around him continued to generate intensity.
Tebow was a failure and the reason why his team lost while playing against the Buffalo Bills and the Kansas City Chiefs.
The loss to Bills was more of a shock as it was sustained at the hand of the weakest team in American Football Conference (AFC)-West. And all that was made possible by Tebow himself.
Tebow went on to forfeit four interceptions in a game in which he completed less than fifty percent of the total passes, 13 of 29 passes for 185 yards.
Two of the interceptions went for touchdowns helping the Bills surge way ahead to win the game 40-14.
The Bills' quarterback proved to be the better one that day going for 196 yards, while completing 15 of 27 passes without any interceptions.
The failure was missed by the fans and the Broncos coach John Fox too who seemed content on calling Tebow’s failure just a “couple of misreads".
Even Tebow rather than stand up to accept his responsibility tried coming out clean.
"My confidence is just fine", Tebow said in an attempt to distract attention from his poor show and on to the next game against the Chiefs.
"I have to do a better job of not giving them opportunities. I tried to make something happen, and I tried to force it". Tebow said.
Tebow succeeded and the Tebow hype continued because his fans wanted it to.
To be continued....
