And, that isn't the first time the comedian has tweeted about the publicly religious quarterback. Before the Dec. 18 Denver Broncos New England Patriots game, Maher wrote, "If Tebow beats Tom Brady tomorrow, I will tweet "Jesus is king". No pressure." 

Tebow didn't comment on Maher's jab, but he did tweet about the game.
