Maybe Chip just now realized he traded his only wr worth a shiat and is converting the offense to the Wishbone.

this kid is a gamer, he's a baller, he's a playmaker and a shot caller

You must have forgotten about Jordan Matthews.

Tebow Tebow Tebow .

If tebow has improved himself then I don't see why he doesn't get a chance. If not then he needs to kick rocks and do something else or pick a different position if he wants to play in the NFL

All joking aside, everytime I see a team run the read option all I remember are how everyone said it could never work in the NFL......

[Voltaire 4,556]

Tebow isn't so bad that he should be out of the league.

 

I think Cleveland should get him so he can be bestest buddies and road game roommates with Johnny Manziel. Ideally, they could help each other with their personality quirk problems.

It doesn't work, because it gets your QB killed. It's a gimmick that can be used as a surprise a few times a game.

I can think of at least 3 starting qbs id rather start tebow over and there has to be around 10-15 backup qbs id roster Tebow over. Considering jersey sales and exposure, he would prob be the best 3rd qb in the league on any team.

 

Lets not even consider the fact that he led a team to a winning season and a playoff win, wich guys like Hoyer, Sam Bradford etc couldnt dream of doing.

Tebow can help Manziel overcome his meth addiction. And in return, Johnny Football can help Tebow lose his virginity.

 

Win win.

In all seriousness - I don't see how Tebow could be any worse than what we have in Weeden. He flat out sux - have no faith in him at all as our backup.

Guess what? NFL GMs are not idiots. These guys jobs depend on finding players to help their teams win. If they think there is even a chance a guy can help them win, then that guy is in the league. It's why Leonard Little stayed in the league despite killing people. It's why Rice and the guy from Carolina will be back in the league this year. Tebow's not in the league because teams don't think he can help them win. If you believe otherwise you really don't know football.

good point

 

he's also a little better than romo

NBC Washington's Dianna Marie Russini reports there's an "80 percent chance" the Eagles will sign free agent Tim Tebow if they can trade Matt Barkley.

ESPN's Chris Mortensen has reported the Eagles are trying to trade Barkley for a "late" pick, something Russini confirms. If football czar Chip Kelly has serious eyes for Tebow, it's unclear why he wouldn't just release Barkley and his $592,500 salary. He must genuinely believe there's a market for Barkley's services. We find it rather hard to believe. There will undoubtedly be more Tebow updates as the week rolls on.

it's tebow time in philly

[Djgb13 2,338]

I hope tebow does get a second chance at it. It really is pathetic people gave him grief just cause he's a Christian. That being said I know tebow took a step back after his days in Denver. Lost speed and arm strength seemed to get worse. I don't blame Denver at all for getting Peyton when they had the chance.

I haven't noticed Tebow getting griefed for his Christianity.

 

What rankles me (and, I suspect, many others) about him is his dogged insistence that he is some sort of elite quarterback - when he truly is not. Seriously, not. And yet, he demands that teams and staff bend over backwards to accommodate his delusion.

 

I dunno. He impresses me as more of a fame-seeking self-absorbed git, than as a religious dude.

I realize this is a tangent, and I dont mean to hijack the thread, but I need your help.

 

Now, I just learned this word for the first time recently and your use of it doesn't register in my head. It seems Tebow is totally 180 degrees opposite of the first git I came across: this kid causing tens of $dollar$ worth of damage in a dollar store.

 

What am I missing?
