Because a Tim Tebow-led offense isn’t sustainable long term. You’re not going to win a lot of games—particularly with a first-place schedule as the Broncos would have had in 2012—with a quarterback who can’t complete even 50% of his passes.
Actually, they did. They lost in the divisional playoffs both years. The difference is that Manning was able to earn the Broncos a first round bye, and Tebow couldn’t..Also, if we’re comparing Manning to Tebow, how long was Manning out of work after the Colts released him, and how long was Tebow out of work after the Jets released him?

He got Denver to the playoffs with a bad team in a pathetic division. See Matt Hasselbeck and the Seattle Seahawks, 2010.
