With the 5th pick of the 2012 NFL draft, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers select....
I have a hard time watching Skip Bayless talk...
….the guy doesn’t know football from his own arse…
I know he probably doesn’t believe half the sh*t coming from his own mouth and its simply for ratings, but the guy spews nonsense 24/7.

Let's make some rules here for a Tim Tebow drinking game...
1. Everytime Tebow drops back…sees the first WR is covered and takes off running…take a shot.
Every Touchdown pass Tebow throws, drink the whole bottle
Time to shamelessly plug my book and short story!
a bottle of beer or hard liquor ?
cause one is fun and the other fatal!

Has he been giving circumcisions with his teeth again?

I want Tebow to win
I want chaos. I want confusion. I want Denver to erupt in Tebow Madness for the next 3 years.
Time to shamelessly plug my book and short story!
I'm with you buddy.
I’m a Tebow guy anyway but the chaos would just be so much fun. And I don’t want to get ahead of myself, but imagine they go to NE and win next week? Psh. Madness.
Was a bit short.
Would have been big otherwise.
was talking about the one that was slightly over thrown.
…the WR wasn’t running. He led him nicely in my opinion.
The Steelers should use John Clay

Adrian Clayborn doesn't like Tebow
“Adrian Clayborn
Seriously what did they teach him for four years at Florida! Not how to throw”
Thought I just saw
Deckers knee end up at the line of scrimmage.
by IceyPirate on Jan 8, 2012 5:21 PM EST via mobile reply actions
The officiating is shaky at best...
….I think his elbow is down…which means he is down. His knee bent the wrong direction….there goes Tebow’s favorite target
Shouldn't be a catch
Went to the ground and didn’t hang on to the ball. That hasn’t been a catch all year long.
Holy Tebow long pass, Batman!
With the 5th pick of the 2012 NFL draft, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers select....
Wow who says Tebow can't throw the football.
I’m kidding he has been awful but those were good throws he made.
If he can hit a few more of those
The Steelers will have to back off, which will open up the run.
what you say?
No way, say, say, tebow is going to lose anyway!!!

It's even uglier in the postgame thread at ESPN
Lots of very smug Saints fans rubbing salt in the Falcon fans’ wounds.
With the 5th pick of the 2012 NFL draft, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers select....
I went to a Bucs/Saints game in 2003
…at the Super Dome. Their fans were cool as hell. They were there to party and have a good time. I think when a team has success they end up getting a lot of band wagon folks who are just plain d*cks. Also, the internet is a breeding ground for people getting brave and talking trash.
They're freaking out because Tebow might get a playoff win before Matt Ryan does.
lol, I never thought of it like that but it’s priceless.
I want to see tebone get blasted...
Yo, blast that fool..

Tebow defeating Roethlisberger
would have a nice kind of good triumphing over evil vibe. Who wants to cheer for Rapistberger?
With the 5th pick of the 2012 NFL draft, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers select....
If the Seahawks can beat the Saints last yr
I wouldn’t be surprised if the Broncos beat a banged up Steeler team.
any given Sunday....any given Sunday
…as a franchise all you can do is get your team to the playoffs, then hope for the best. See Packers last season. 6th seed.
Steelers are stacking against the run and daring Tebow to throw it.
They’d better back off. Their secondary is their weak point anyway.
Someone needs to tell Roethlisberger the winners
get a drunken bathroom stripper party followed up by an all you can eat buffet.
They are killing Mularkey on their blog.
In case anybody still thinks we should go after him.
Part of why I don't want to go near that guy.
But that game wasn’t entirely his fault.
One man's trash....
But yeah they’re roasting him over there. Your O-Coord is always the most hated man on the team, and the backup QB is always the most popular.
Hating Olsen is justified though.
I don’t remember seeing many chanting for Josh Johnson posts during the season
It's just a saying.
Really what I’m saying is just because the Falcon fans want to burn MM at the stake doesn’t necessarily mean he’s a dunce.
That being said, I don’t want him as our HC.
Pats v. Packers
thats my Super Bowl prediction. (which normally means we will NOT be seeing the Pack v. the Pats in the SB)
Their defensive gameplan of "stopping the run = win the game" has been torn to shreds.
They are in panic mode now.
Indeed.
If they score here, they can change things after half time.
Or have that happen.
That’s cool too I guess.
What happened? Sorry no cable

The Broncos need to keep letting Tebow run it on short yardage...
So they can set up the jump pass in goal line. Really pisses defenses off.
Wow Steelers are really falling apart
surprising for a battle tested team.
Steelers didn't respect Tebow's arm, and he burned them.
Who would have thought?
Oderint dum metuant
I agree Cowher.
Ben needed to rest more. I have no idea why they kept him in that Browns game.
if the Broncos can dominate the number one defense like this, what will they do to the Pats
by bucfanlostiniowa on Jan 8, 2012 6:23 PM EST reply actions
Heh
That should be fun, if it happens.
Though to be fair, this defense is missing some guys. Missing Ryan Clark really hurts – Polamalu’s gambling has been hurting them.
I dont see them beating a healthy pats team in NE

by Bucfan on Jan 8, 2012 6:35 PM EST via mobile up reply actions
yeah, Pats beat Broncos easy..IMO
…its all about home field advantage so far these playoffs…Home team is 3-0 and leading a 4th.
Steelers need to show some life here soon
As you can always expect come from behind victory is when you least expect it.
Settling for FGs on first two drives looking bigger now

Tebow was secretly cloned and given different names in order to make the team
Time to shamelessly plug my book and short story!
You wonder what if they had shut down Ben the last few wks
maybe he would have been more affective and less gimpy.
They wanted that first round bye, hoping to rest him then.
Cant blame them with that thinking.

I take a healthy Ben on the road over a banged up Ben at home anyday
most teams think get homefield but the Steelers are capable of winning in anywhere
Home field has a three-point effect if we can believe Vegas (probably)
I think a healthy Roethlisberger vs injured Roethlisberger provides a much bigger swing.
Every commentator is really bad
infusing their egos and interpretations on the game. Barely paying attention at all.

Jason LaConfora says
League sources continue to indicate that Mike Sherman is well-positioned to be named the next head coach of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, a decision that could be announced this week.
As you can always expect come from behind victory is when you least expect it.
Yeah, he said that before it was clear that Phillips and Childress were going to interview
So I’m not buying that. You don’t interview someone on Friday if you’re about to sign Sherman.

yep, Denver has a great team..O line playing well.
…its almost a shame Tebow (not his fault) gets all the attention. Their kicker is awesome too…got no recognition for kicking two 50+ yarders a few weeks back.

Tebow's completion % is 50%, and Ben's is 51.7%.
Tebow has much better stats than Ben overall thus far.

Yes, I thought the Steelers D would be much better than what they have shown.
I think their defensive ineffectiveness is due to their gameplan, not execution. No pass rush for almost the whole game.

If it was a 14 point deficit, then I do think it is too much for Ben.
Denver knows the Steelers are going to pass it, and Ben isn’t mobile enough to avoid the pass rush.

They've managed to turn him into a 4-3 SAM LB and use him as both a pass rusher and an impact player against the run
That’s really impressive.
Tebow has passed for over 200?

Well Tebow is still playing, and has more playoff games under his belt.
Doesn’t mean he’s better though, but he didn’t play bad at all. Happy for the kid, I hope he does well.
Where the heck is Keyser?
Tebow threw for 3:16 yards.
Anybody else creeped out by that?

I wish the Bucs had anyone on their team that is as passionate about the team as Tebow is.
Seems like we have a bunch of guys that are just collecting paychecks.
Now that's a football game
Forget the religious sideshow. Sunday’s game was what every football fan dreams of. A rookie QB going against a three time SB champion with few thinking he had a chance. I told my wife it’s a classic David and Goliath set up. I figured Tim would leave badly bruised, beaten but all the better for it.
Then came that pass. Every football fan, regardless of team loyalty, understands what that pass meant. It was a perfect play call, a perfect pass to a receiver who had been hot all night with Tebow hitting him in stride. Forget his religion. Forget his critics who pander to the cynical side of our nature. That was a quintessential American moment. An underdog, fairly criticised for his throwing prowess, comes out in OT and wins the game. I don’t care what your religion or non-religion is. That was football at it’s purest and finest.
