There might not be a bigger story in the NFL this season than Tim Tebow. Since taking over as the starting quarterback of a 1-4 Denver Broncos team, Tebow has led Denver to five wins in its last six games and put the team in the middle of the playoff hunt.

But that’s only part of the reason why Tebow is the talk of the NFL. Tebow is such a polarizing figure that just about any casual fan has got to be intrigued by him. Fans seem to either love him or hate him and just about everyone has a strong opinion on him.

I find myself fascinated to see how each Broncos game turns out (and its only partially because he’s on my fantasy team). Prior to Tebow starting, the Broncos were one of the more boring teams of the year. Now the Broncos are near the top of the list of games I want to see each week.

So what exactly makes this guy so fascinating?

He Sucks but Somehow Still Wins
Any one who has watched Tebow play a few quarters in the NFL can see he is not your prototypical pocket passer. That’s really a nice way of putting it though. Plain and simple: the guy sucks…but somehow is unstoppable.

His arm is awful and he throws like a girl. When he throws a pass, it’s like you’re watching a game of Nintendo’s Duck Hunt. You look at his final line and it’s never pretty, but here we are, heading into week 13 and the guy is 5-1 since taking over as the starter! He turned a, 1-4, unwatchable team into a playoff contender.

Tebow is like the ugly guy we all know that somehow manages to get laid by beautiful women. No one can figure out how he pulls it off, but he keeps going home with women way out of his league, while you go home to your right hand. No matter how many times you see it, you are still amazed he did it.

Some people resent Tebow because they feel he was given this opportunity due to his wild popularity out of college. There probably is some truth to that. If he were to go to an open NFL tryout under a different name, he probably wouldn’t make it past the first cut. But because he is Tim Tebow he was drafted in the first round. Nevertheless, he is showing that he may be worth that pick…even if it’s in the most unorthodox way possible.

His Faith
Tim Tebow isn’t shy about expressing his faith and his relationship with Jesus Christ.

Christians love what Tebow represents. He is a great role model for young children, he says and does the right things and works extremely hard to get the most out of his talent.

He even claims to be a virgin and is saving himself for marriage…Which really is a shame. Without trying to sound gay, the guy is an adonis. His body looks like it was sculpted by Michelangelo. Meanwhile, he’s been a starting quarterback for the Florida Gators and now the Denver Broncos. He must have women throwing themselves at him constantly. The fact that he is a virgin probably makes women want him even more. I really don’t know how this man can resist all this temptation. He could be living every man’s dream, banging a different supermodel every night.

Maybe that’s why he’s so good at football though. He takes all the built up testosterone and channels it into football. Maybe he’s not distracted by the constant allure of sweet pussy like most men are.

Others hate that he is shoving his religion in your face all the time and probably think he’s full of shit. He’s constantly talking about God in interviews and just about every time the camera pans to him on the sidelines, he is down on one knee praying. He does it so much that it’s actually inspired its own web site.

Regardless of how you feel, he is must-see TV for football fans. I personally am rooting for the guy to succeed (and again…not just because he’s on my fantasy team). He makes football even more exciting—whether you love him or hate him—and there’s certainly nothing wrong with that.
