Sam Bradford vs Tim Tebow: Where Are They Now Edition



                                           Tim Tebow                                                       Sam Bradford
                                                      

 I know its just the beginning of the season but I wanted to start making my comparisons. However, both Sam Bradford and Tim Tebow can proudly say that they were the star quarterbacks in their college careers. Bradford leading the Oklahoma Sooners and Tebow leading a highly publicized career with the Florida Gators. So who has it better?
  • Tebow can proudly proclaim that he was the first sophomore to receive  "The Heisman Trophy" but Sam Bradford was right behind him and was awarded as the second sophomore the receive "The Heisman Trophy". - Tebow
  • Their last season playing in college Tebow had a record of 21 touchdowns as opposed to Bradford's mere 2. - Tebow
  •  However, they both ended their careers with a total of 88 touchdowns- X
  • Bradford was the first pick of the NFL Draft  to the St. Louis Rams and Tebow was the twenty fifth pick to the Denver Broncos.- Bradford
  • Bradford is the starting quarterback for the Rams with a 1-3 record and Tebow is the third backup quarterback for the Broncos with the same record of 1-3.-Bradford 
 Although it looks as if it is a tie, I say hands down Bradford has it better because he is actually playing in the game. I don't know if Denver's decision to make Tebow the THIRD backup is an attempt to develop him and better prepare him for football on a professional level. I mean, I'm sure they are calling themselves learning from the Tennessee and Young experiment, and protecting their investment for long term profits and all but I have been waiting for years to see how Tebow will play in a professional environment. I hope they make some changes soon because WE as AMERICANS need to see this boy play under pressure.

  1. You have to remember Bradford did not play a complete game last season at Oklahoma. He injured his shoulder against BYU and reinjured it against Texas. This is the reason he only had 2 touchdowns last season at Oklahoma.
