So, if Tebow wins because of his faith, when he looses does it mean the other team beat 'his faith.'
Another way to look at it is; if Tebow wins because God is on his side- when he looses does that mean the other team beat God? or just that God was not on Tebow's side that time...
Though I gotta imagine the receiver played some small part in that final play.
um no.
so many people, so naive on doctrine. no wonder christians get a bad name.
Tebow isn't saying that God is making him win because God likes Tebow the best or because Tebow worships God. Tebow is merely thanking God for the success that he has had.
It's not about which team God likes the most its just a game of football- the team that plays the best wins. But, instead of Tebow being conceited and taking credit for everything he expresses his thanks to the God who created him and gave him the ability and opportunity to be a great football player.
In the end what's so wrong with someone being humble and giving thanks to God (who you may or may not believe in) for their abilities?

Nothing---and for many who truly don't believe in God and are secure in their beliefs(or unbelief), Tebow doesn't bother them.
But many are insecure with themselves, so Tebow being so outspoken really bothers them, and they like being a**holes about it.

Very much. Yes.

But--
In the Lions/Saints game, the Saints never punted. The Lions NEVER stopped the Saints. Not once, in the whole game (two fumbles, which the Saints did themselves).
Can ANYONE stop Drew Brees?
Not Brees per se. But the Saints? Well, you have your answer.
Pretty bad, but I would say not yet unproven. . .don't forget he started a few games last year, in addition to all his starts this year. . .
The Bronocs should be a much better team next year. Their defense was decimated, and Tebow will get a full off-season under Elway working on his weaknesses as the Broncos fully assimilate a new offense. However, if nothing else, he upped his trade value with his game against Pittsburgh.

In that case, John has a ton of work to do. -
http://tinyurl.com/7boy9qmI don't think Elway was ever necessarily sold on this guy, but the Pittsburgh game opened a few eyes. As I said earlier on this thread, I wasn't ready to anoint Tebow the second coming of Elway just yet after last week - that it may have been a fluke. We can't possibly know yet, but Tebow is much better out of the pocket. I still like the idea of having a pure pocket passer with Tebow lined up in the backfield. Tebow may have upped his trade value, but I'd like to keep him around to see if he can improve, and he's good for morale. But I'm definitely not sold on him either. All yesterday's game really proved is that the offensive line needs to get a whole lot better. The defense was banged up and porous going in.
