When you look back at the body of work in his truly first year of QB-ing its impressive. Does he need to improve throwing the ball, of course. But everything ive seen says he can do it by just what he has done this year alone. Hatters still gonna hatte no matter what.
Is it overkill by the media? Of course, when is it not these days?
Does Tebow get too much of the credit? The QB ALWAYS gets too much credit or too much grief when things are going good or bad. Its the nature of the position. The real hero of that game hands down was D. Thomas with 4 receptions for 204 yards, 1td and one hellava stiff arm.

To Tebow's credit, he did give his props to Thomas.
But Thomas wouldn't be catching that 80 yard pass if they hadn't established the run so well...and Tebow was a part of making that running game go.
