No you have it backwards, the other guy is better!

For all of the ones that the Steelers don't win, and there will be more than 4 of those, guaranteed, I can't think of a finer individual than Tim Tebow to win 4 of them.

I am sorry, but Bradshaw could throw way better than Tebow has or ever will. Sure, Terry was erratic at times early on, but his mechanics were always excellent. He was the first player drafted overall in 1970 for a reason.

He wasn't erratic at times early on, he was erratic most of the times for the first 5 or 6 years of his career. I don't know about you but I had the good fortune to have seen all of his games during that era.

Besides, being able to lead a team of men, to inspire them and have them put out maximum effort for you is far more important in a quarterback than passing mechanics ever were. And Tebow has that in spades. Bradshaw had it. Sanchez doesn't.
