He may have fallen out of favor in New York, but Tim Tebow has a major fan in Hollywood. With the quarterback receiving flak for the rumor last week that he refused to take the field for the Jets – a rumor Tebow shot down yesterday – Josh Duhamel has come out in support of the former Heisman winner. ESPN analyst Merril Hoge has been especially harsh toward Tebow, recently saying he’s as “phony as a three-dollar bill” and asking fans in Denver if they care any more that he no longer plays in that city. In response to that final question, Duhamel unleased on Twitter. “@merrilhoge hey merril. Josh Duhamel here,” the actor wrote. “Wondering you’re such a jealous bitch about Tebow? He’s 10X the player you were.” Ohhh, slam! For the record, over a seven-year career, Hoge ran for 3,139 yards and 21 touchdowns; while Tebow has thrown for 2,422 yards and 17 scores. But Tim Tebow has never been about the numbers. So, you tell us, football fans: Would you want Tebow starting for your favorite franchise? Yes, he’s a proven winner! Yes, he’s really good guy! No, he’s a terrible quarterback! View Poll »
