NFL's Biggest QB Battles ⚔️

Michael Vick: Philadelphia Eagles QB Is the Anti-Tim Tebow

Gary DavenportNov 13, 2011

Denver Broncos quarterback Tim Tebow and Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Michael Vick are two of the most polarizing figures in the National Football League, with most fans having strong opinions on both, be they positive or negative.

However, outside of that, and both players' ability to move the football with their legs, the two signal-callers share very little in common—and in fact, in many respects, the two are polar opposites.

Their public images could not be more dissimilar, as Tebow is often held up as an example of all that is good and right due to his public piety and "aw shucks" demeanor, while Vick is still working to repair his image done in by the imprisonment from his involvement in a dogfighting ring.

The differences extend onto the playing field as well, with the most glaring being their respective arms. Michael Vick may not be the most accurate passer in NFL history, but he does possess a cannon for an arm and has shown to be more than capable of making any and all throws.

Tebow, on the other hand, completed all of two passes in Denver's Week 10 win over the Kansas City Chiefs (yep, you read that right—completed two passes and won. Go figure).

Should Tebow ever complete more than 60 percent of his passes in a game, I'm pretty sure that will be the ninth sign of the Apocalypse.

The two also carry much different personas into their respective locker rooms, as Vick is a $100 million superstar veteran viewed as one of the Eagles' leaders (which may be part of their problem, but that's a story for a different day).

Tebow, meanwhile, is a second-year pro still working to prove that, despite the legion of naysayers, he's capable of being a solid starting quarterback in the NFL.

You may love them both, or you may hate them both, but there's no denying that most football fans are fervent in their beliefs regarding Michael Vick and Tim Tebow—even if they're based on very drastically different assumptions.
