Those Tim Tebow jokes were funny until you had to start Brian Hoyer in a playoff game.
The Texans QB was elementary at best in Saturday’s 30-0 loss to the Chiefs, finishing 15-of-34 for 136 yards. As if that wasn’t bad enough, he turned the ball over four times … in the first half.
Playoff QBs Who Aren't On Tim Tebow's Level Yet
Miraculously, head coach Bill O’Brien didn’t look elsewhere after halftime.
Despite a 9-7 record and an AFC South crown, it was only a matter of time before Houston’s QB by committee ran out of luck. The combination of Hoyer, Brandon Weeden, Ryan Mallet, the guy that changes your oil, was never going to be enough in the playoffs.
Proof Tim Tebow Will Never Play In NFL Again
Earlier in March, ESPN nearly pulled a prank, claiming the Texans were going to sign Tebow on a segment called “Overreaction Monday.” Naturally, it led to a few fire alarms being pulled in the Lone Star State.
Our TV in here just said the Texans are signing Tim Tebow. Need confirmation. What year is it???

In hindsight, it probably wouldn’t have been the worst idea in the world.
I'll never understand how Brian Hoyer has a starting job but Tim Tebow is a free agent. Hoyer losing this game for the Texans.

The @HoustonTexans better make a run at every available QB this offseason. You're telling me that Tebow couldn't do better than Hoyer? #NFL

I wanna know how QBs like hoyer and ponder have jobs and Tim Tebow doesnt, He's not your ideal NFL QB but he's way better then these stooges

The more I watch awful NFL QBs like Hoyer, Keenum, Gabbert, Cassel, Foles, etc. the more criminal it becomes that Tebow doesn't have a job.

I take back what I said. Hoyer is actually the worst QB to ever play in a playoff game. Tebow > Hoyer #ChalkUpTheLoss

Make fun of Tebow all you want -- and you certainly can with his limitations at QB -- but at least he managed to win a playoff game.
As for Hoyer ...well, don’t expect Hoyer to get a chance to win his first-ever playoff game anytime soon.
