Remove Tim Tebow from the cover of the NFL: The Magazine inaugural issue

Remove Tim Tebow from the cover of the NFL: The Magazine inaugural issue

The Issue

Tim Tebow is a media-hyped quarterback who is unworthy of the recognition of being the cover athlete for any respected sports magazine, particularly since the true authors of Denver's recent winning streak (against poor competition) is an unheralded defense spearheaded by one of the game's truly dynamic rookie talents in Von Miller. The cover athlete of a collectors' edition magazine should be someone who will still be in the league three years later, not a marginal tight end masquerading as a quarterback on the good graces of a front office that would jump at the chance to trade him to any team willing to take the hype-machine off their hands.
