People hate Tim Tebow more for the coverage he receives than for the person that he is. And that’s unfair. Some people hate Tebow because he seems too good to be true, and that’s even sillier. Jeremy Lin is starting to receive the same kind of treatment.

Eli Manning not only put together the best season of his career, but he showed a flair for the dramatic with multiple 4th quarter game winning drives. Six in the regular season and two more in the post season.

Eli Manning just finished up the ’11 season throwing for nearly 5,000 yards, and he has his team on the brink of another Super Bowl title. In 3 playoff games this year he’s thrown for 923 yards with a 61.8 completion percentage and 8 TDs to only 1 pick.

San Francisco 49ers quarterback Alex Smith has seen his fair share of ups and downs since being the National Football League’s first overall draft pick in 2005. San Fran’s top decision at that time was between Smith and current Packers QB, Aaron Rodgers. That alone is a tough comparison for Smith but, while Rodgers had the chance to sit and learn for a few years before stepping into a talented offense, Smith was pressed into action as a rookie on a bad team.

Mark Sanchez’s QB Rating, yards passing, TD passes, and completion percentage has slowly crept up since his rookie year, but evidently it’s not trending up fast enough for some.

2011 might go down as the worst year in the long history of the Chicago Bears. A history that dates all the way back to 1920 when the team was known as the Decatur Staleys. With the loss to Green Bay on Sunday Night football the Bears have hit a ‘not in 91 years’ all time low.
