Even in your post, you tacitly assert I am rooting for him to fail.  I never said I am rooting for him to fail.  If I thought his failure would lead the Tebow cultists to finally give up their vigil, I might root for his failure, but I have found over the years no amount of fact will ever dampen the enthusiasm or devotion people have for Tebow.  I do believe, however, given the totality of the circumstances, he is more likely to fail at making the switch to TE than not, if the measure of success is developing enough competence in the position to:  a.  make the team and; B actually upgrade a position of dire need to objective observers, not merely to the satisfaction of Tebow sycophants.

This really makes me laugh.  But only because it's factual.

There's always an excuse/reason.  Always.  And I don't want to harken back to a prior post, but it's Twilight Zone-ish the length that Tebow cultists revert to.  I don't recall in my 65 years on this earth, the depths of this fanaticism.

I just don't, and probably never will, understand it.

My thing is it transcends excuses.  There are often mitigating factors that contribute to a QBs lack of success in a given area.  The Jets gave Sam Darnold next to no help either from coaching or in terms of surrounding talent.  But the cult of Tebow never even acknowledge the failures.  Tebow cultists can look at his stats and say QBs who have thrown multiple times more TDs than Tebow and have double digit higher completion percentages, etc. somehow can't hold Tebow's jock strap.  That's the thing that gets me. 

It's as if they all fell for some sort of bizarre Jedi mind trick and ae bound and determine to try it out on everyone else.

Thank you.

I don't know about that.

I DO know, however, that in terms of football ability, either as an NFL QB or TE, Tebow isn't, despite what his sycophants tell you.
