I got these stats from an email a friend that lives in Denver sent me.
In their first 8 career starts:
Team W-L:
Elway = 3-5 Tebow = 5-3
Passing Yards:
Elway = 1,041 Tebow = 1,281
TD-Int:
Elway = 3-10 Tebow = 10-4
Rushing Yards:
Elway = 92 Tebow = 550
Rushing TD:
Elway = 1 Tebow = 5
No, no one is saying Tebow is or will be better than Elway. It’s just amusing how “the worst QB” in Denver history has done better in his first 8 starts than the best QB in Denver history (who also happens to be the same guy that publicly bashes him and gives him backhanded compliments).
