Patriots Sign Tim Tebow

[Brock Samson]

So a 3rd QB never pushes the 2nd guy? Also if Brady plays for 4 more years is Mallett just going to sit around an be a backup that long?

So we all agree Tebow is QB 3. Who are the better QB 3 options out there?

Plus as you indicate he is extremely mobile and since many teams have a mobile QB he makes a great scout guy. For cheap dough. The pats need that with all the mobile QBs in the league.

And if the "circus" gets unbearable (which shouldnt happen on this team) they can cut him.

You don't like the guy and that is perfectly legit. Dosent mean the team isnt in a better position with him on the 90 man roster at this point.

So he basically serves no purpose on this team since Edelman can run the scout team for mobile QBs and we don't need a QB3. Cool. Still can't wait to see what Bill does with this kid. Maybe he's just here to satiate Gronk.

Here's a good one.

Maybe Edleman should worry about getting healthy, running routes, catching, passes, and returning punts first. You know, his job.

Also, I suppose Kafkla served no purpose as well. With that 90th spot on the roster what position would you have gone after?

 

[Bruins29]

Anybody would be better.

And anybody can say that. Give me a name.

Edelman has been a longtime scout QB, simulating Tebow, Kap, Young, eye multiple times.

Look in your phone book.

Shouldn't be hard to find someone better.

Wallace Stanzi Nassib Hoyer Wilson ... (Pryor, lol). Seriously, it's so completely ridiculous to be defending Tebow as 'the best 3rd QB in the league' that we should really just stop.

Yes, I know. I always figured he was QB 3 in an emergency. But he has a lot to do in other areas and isnt even healthy. So what does it matter what he did in the past? Right now he cant do anything and may not be here in a month or two.

I love the guy.

Uhuh, and why exactly are they better? I don't seen to recall any of those guys doing anything notable.

He just shed his walking boot

His purpose is a guy competing for 3rd string QB.
We may or may not have that spot on the 53 man roster.
We will be cutting 37 players you know.

 

[Brock Samson]

It's even better from this angle.

 

[Bruins29]

I know, I read it and was happy to hear it. I want him focusing on WR. I think he can be a solid contributor there.

 

[Brock Samson]

Right. A position the team doesn't need and often doesn't carry.

We may or may not have that spot on the 53 man roster.

Uh, that's what I've been saying... (more along the line of "probably won't have").

We will be cutting 37 players you know.

Well you learn something new every day, I could have swore we carried 90 all season. The owners are gonna to be stoked when they find out about all the money they will save!

They can throw a spiral?

 

[ausbacker]

If Tebow plays better than Mallet then Tebow should play should a scenario come up that warrants it. God Forbid. I just want to win, I dont care who is on the team.

I would rather have a guy like Tebow on the team than some jerk off who has to talk about how its "not about the money" when it is indeed all about the money. Or another locker room disruption.

Tebow is the polar opposite of Brady and Mallett. I would find it very difficult to believe that his style of QB play will see him beat out Mallett.

 

[Froob]

Never will understand why someone would root against a player on our roster.

 

[Deus Irae]

It's because of the circus that he brings with him.

This thread is evidence enough that he's a major distraction.

Plus, lol at the idea of him being an upgrade over anybody.

The only "circus" on this thread is from the posters who are attacking Tebow for no good reason while claiming that Tebow will bring a circus.


In other words, YOU are the circus. If you don't like the circus, stop posting on the topic.

Kurt Warner threw wobbly spirals all the way to three superbowls, winning one.

Clearly a tight spiral is not a prerequisite for any sort of success in this league.

So why are you whining about one of the 45 players fighting for the last 8 spots?
