Pride would mean he really does believe in himself, and he'd be willing to go prove himself in the arena league.


Arrogance is more hubris and is shown by his fear of playing at a level lower than the NFL. He's not a good QB and he doesn't have the skills to be an NFL QB, so his insistence that he's good enough to be one and only in the NFL is arrogance.


As was pointed out by others it's not like other players that were doubted didn't go play somewhere else to prove their ability. Those were confident men of pride, Tebow doesn't have what those guys have.


I allowed for the possibility of pride as a label because some here might really believe he is good and just think it's pride.


You're welcome.
