His stats for that 'good' year in Denver:

Started 11 games - had a 72.9 QB rating - completed 46% of his passes - 1700 yards - had avg of 132 yards per game - threw for 12 td. All numbers are fair to poor for an NFL starter.

I wish him luck but he's going to have to get much, much better to make it in the NFL.

As much as I love Doug Flutie his NFL numbers were equally bad - even when he came back to the NFL.

At Denver, he did seem to do well in crisis situations in pulling his team from behind.

Still believe there is something else going on with Tim Tebow. Shattered self-confidence, team dynamics, etc. that is keeping him from doing better in the NFL.
