Re: The NFL Thread
Its absolutely baffling. Everything you said was correct. Simply because he doesn't have the most accurate arm and plays an unconventional style, no one wants to put their job on the line and give him a chance. It's a shame. Like you said, if Brady Quinn can start in this league for a team, surely SOMEONE could give Tebow a shot.
I think the real problem is that he is too famous and loved to be a backup quarterback. If he goes somewhere as a backup, the starter has a target on their back the minute he steps foot in town, and it becomes a media circus. So he either needs to go to a team that is willing to start him, or change his position.
I wish him the best of luck.

Re: The NFL Thread
Honestly I think the Jets were stupid for misusing him this year. Tebow could be deadly in the wildcat if properly utilized. As for his future as a quarterback, I'm not sure what will happen. He's a great athlete, but he's a shit quarterback. I'm sure some team will take a chance on him. It's confusing, but his window of opportunity is definitely shrinking.

Re: The NFL Thread
But he's a "shit quarterback" that wins football games AND puts buts in the seats. If that's not worth a look, I don't know what is. Now the JAGS want nothing to do with him. He'll easily pay for his entire contract the first year you have him and there's no one you can draft this year that projects well into the NFL, but they don't want him.transformers2 wrote:Honestly I think the Jets were stupid for misusing him this year.

Has there ever been a QB that's been asked to change positions after taking a "shit team" to the divisional round the year before?

Re: The NFL Thread
The Jaguars had the lowest payroll this year and its owner has been speculated of lying about his value. So of course they'll want nothing to do with Tebow. They can't afford him.
Speaking about payrolls, I really cannot see the Chiefs having a success story with the #1 pick. Either they'll trade it or they'll use it but the pick ends up holding out because the Hunts won't fork over the money. This is what's keeping the franchise back. Not Pioli, not the coaches, not even the awful Matt Cassel contract. This team won't go places until a price tag is put on them.

Re: The NFL Thread
Draft picks are slotted now.... Price won't be an issue.

Re: The NFL Thread
But signing bonus are. The top pick is going to want a big one but the team won't settle until it's too late.
Also, you know that they will pull some shit to avoid spending the minimum cap (since that goes into effect this year).

Re: The NFL Thread
If Tebow's cut by the Jets, he'll be extremely cheap, so that won't matter.
Financially everything will be fine with KC's pick. They'll be in contact with a few top pick potential picks and you're going to pay the whole first contract anyways, so the signing bonus won't matter.

Re: The NFL Thread
Good point about Tebow W, though I'm still not sold on him as an NFL quarterback. He had a lot of luck on his side last season with the Broncos as well as a blossoming defense and an excellent kicker in Matt Prater that won him a lot of games. That being said, He would definitely bring an audience where ever he goes. He absolutely deserves another chance and given the right coach, he could do something in the league. The Jaguars are stupid to at least not give him a chance. I mean Chad Henne wasn't completely horrible after Blaine Gabbert got hurt (who in my opinion is the biggest bust not named JaMarcus Russell in recent memory), but their quarterback play is definitely an issue and they need to someone take full advantage of the great starting receiving duo that have in Cecil Shorts and Justin Blackmon.

Re: The NFL Thread
I've probably said this before but Gabbert should have never been a first round pick. In college, he was a weak replacement for Chase Daniel and never had the passion that Daniel did (this is why Gabbert never won a bowl game in college). To further show you why he was a bad pick, his replacement in college won a bowl game in his first year as starter (with a lot of the same players in Gabbert's last year, no less).

Re: The NFL Thread
Prediction: Tebow will end up on the Cardinals, make a shitzillion dollars, and tear his ACL in Week 3.... of preseason.

Re: The NFL Thread
I don't understand how no one's talking about how someone can watch a teammate kill another teammate and ruin his life while drunk driving and within two months is driving drunk. Another Cowboys defensive lineman... Wasn't Stallworth a Cowboy when he killed someone the same way?

Re: The NFL Thread
Stallworth was in Cleveland (where careers go to die) when he did that.

Re: The NFL Thread
Am I the only person who finds it puzzling that the 49ers got it close after the power outage? Something tells me that Jerry Rice's claims that the NFL fixes the Super Bowl are not as farfetched as it seems. Because when you think about it, a big city and/or whoever owns the stadium should be fully prepared for an event such as this one. Why would the electricity suddenly go out for 35 minutes with the Ravens up by 22 and by the end of the quarter, become a five-point game?
