Re: Why did this team sign Tebow?
To be the successor to Brady
I remember callling some months ago, some of you were saying it was crap.
I realized how much similarities there are between Steve Young's situation and Tebow's situation. Both were left armed QB's who were criticized for not being able to throw the ball effectively in there former teams, both had strong arms and talent though, both got picked up by a team that had a legendary coach and multiple super bowl winning quarterbacks who aged like wine, etc.
the only difference is that SY wasn't nearly as popular as Tebow.
What evidence is there that he can play any other position let alone play it well enough to displace guys who've been playing it for a decade or so? Why do you think he hasn't been willing to? Maybe because he knows he sucks can't catch etc.?Neither are quality QBs, for a backup I really want Alex Tanney if the Cowboys foolishly cut him.

Tebow, while not a QB, is definitely a football player. I have a feeling he could be very useful playing multiple positions if he's agreeable to it.

It's like he has his own cult. "Little Timmy can play any position". Sure he can.
Forgive me, but (although I feel the same way,) one sure-fire fan meme is the "[name of player] [name of player] [name of player] how can we lose?" analysis.
I loved the early 2000s... the magic of thinking it would just be fine in the end. We'll at some point (boo hoo) look back fondly some season, at the days when we really started worrying once it was the playoffs. Damn we (still) got it good.
On the other hand, I really really have had enough of losing super bowls by less than a TD to the freakin' NY Giants.
It would be nice to put the universe back the way it's supposed to be for a few years here.

Why are people surprised about this? It was assumed before the game that he wasn't going to get playing time. It's very simple, if Belichick thinks we need a third QB on the roster, he'll make the team. If not, he won't.

The thing is, the list of QB's that are at home or retired that are better then tebow is is absolutely huge. Even the immortal scott zolak could have walked on the field in tebows place and got more then -1 yard in game 2 without even seeing the playbook.It's very simple, if Belichick thinks we need a third QB on the roster, he'll make the team. If not, he won't.
If the patriots performance since Kraft arrived is not good enough for you as a fan, then you really should find a new team.
Clearly, the Belichick-Brady era has been one of the very best in the history of the NFL. The 2007 season was magic and one play away from being the best season in the history of the NFL.

Haters gotta hate. :rocker:
Brady and Mallet go down with injuries in Week 17. Tebow somehow pulls a Jeff Hostetler out of his arse and goes on a Super Bowl run. Watching the Tebow hate
