Kirk Cousins vs Tim Tebow

...........HE TOTALLY FLAUNTS IT. I understand a small point to the heavens or a "Gotta thank god for being here and this opportunity" in an interview.

Think back 10 years. Super Bowl Winning QB Kurt Warner was and still is EXTREMELY active in christian activities.

With Tim...he happened to be on the most popular team of the half century, at the most popular position, very attractive, and reportedly celibate throughout college. Won two championships and a heisman, arguably the best college player ever.

If that's not lame stream media fodder then I don't know what is.

I don't know if Kirk can lead a team through an entire season, but he has shown the ability to play in the NFL.

To answer OP:
Tebow has a lot of media attention because he's outspoken about his beliefs , but more importantly he was one of the best college football players of all time, and his commercial with his mom during the superbowl gave him a lot of attention.... Then He got drafted in the first round which shocked pretty much everyone, which caused more attention. Nobody uses a first round draft pick on a player without some sort of plan, especially as QB, so everybody wanted to see what McDaniels had in mind, I mean Orton clearly wasn't cutting it. Now Tebow is back with the man that drafted him, maybe in pre-season we can see some of that plan..On a side not I think the whole "tebowing" thing is lame, he wasn't the first player to ever kneel after a score.

Now if Kirk Cousins was drafted first round by the Jaguars/cardinals/Bills/Jets he would get a lot of attention, not to the Tebow level most likely, but if Skip backed him he'd be all over ESPN. I think even if he talked about his religion, his college resume wouldn't gather much of a Media hype.

Now if Tebow went into the 4th round or later, I don't think the hype would have ever gotten to the levels it has gotten to.
