Why did this team sign Tebow?

[manxman2601]

its not a creepy hatred, Its a dislike based on fact.

Tebow is not good enough as a QB to make the 53 man roster
Tebow is not a better running then any of our current Rb's
Tebow needing his own offensive scheme hurts our rookie WR's and TE

Nobody has show man a Valid positive to Tebow being on the team, outside of the Standard BB praising him, just like he praises all of his current players while talking to the media.

They have, you've just chosen to ignore them.

Creepy..... You realize 5.xx yards per carry would mean he gets a first down every two plays right?

You realize that later in his first preseason game with the Patriots he had the 11th string oline out there, not really hard to figure out why his #'s went down.

With brady and mallet in the Running plays averaged 11 and 10 yards per carry.

if by ignore, I've shown why those reasons are incorrect only to then be called a "creepy hater".

 

[SDI_Gator]

Tebow is not good enough as a QB to make the 53 man roster (not your decision)
Tebow is not a better running then any of our current Rb's (fair point, but he isn't a rb so..)
Tebow needing his own offensive scheme hurts our rookie WR's and TE (you know this how?)

Re: Ahhh...Sweet Infestation!!

Christ, even Christiancat, the dude who has Tebow pinups hanging over his bed, just typically says he hopes Tebow develops into a solid backup for Brady.

I really wanna know where all these blind devotion posts wrt Tebow are because so far they seem like the only exist in the head of people who think he is worse than Hitler.

Hahaha, well said.

So Brady and Mallet averaged more that 5.xx yards per carry from the qb position? Your trying to discredit Tebow's running by saying the ypc average went down? Just because they ran extremely well in the first half doesn't diminish the fact that Tebow ran well. You can discredit his throwing ability all you want, but to try to discredit his run stats is just sad.

I don't believe you've shown any such thing to be honest. As for "creepy hater" well I don't approve but I noticed you moved swiftly past my critique of your "blind praise" comment. There's been plenty of hyperbole but most of it comes from "your side". As have most of the insults.

With brady and mallet in the Running plays averaged 11 and 10 yards per carry.

Your ignoring the significant impact a 51 yard and a 62 yard run would have on these numbers with such a small sample size.

Intellectual dishonesty at its finest.

The two big runs by Ridley and Blount sorta skewed that statline, no?

 

[Fawn Lebowitz]

Could anyone name one position on the team that Tebow wouldn't be last on the depth chart?

They'll be wailing "not our beloved Timmy" on the way down...

[TT "terrorist" Disclaimer: I apologize to anyone who takes offense that I think this great guy / horrible QB should be cut forthwith].

two big runs that are possible because the defense is unable to put 8 men in the box because there is NO threat of tebow completing a pass(30%)

Why are you ignoring the fact that Tebow is EASY to game plan for BECAUSE he is a horrible passer?

Why are you ignoring the fact that when Tebow took over for the bronco's they went from somewhere around 24th in the league in rushing... to NUMBER ONE in rushing. The read option and Tebows legs had a HUGE part in that. Once again, discredit his throwing till your blue in the face... I won't argue about it, but to say he's not an effective runner is just inaccurate at best.

Why are you ignoring the fact that BB is one of the greatest football minds and he thought he was worth signing?

the same reason he thought Kyle Eckel was worth signing. Giving a good kid a chance to come in an learn before being cut because they are not talented enough to make the 53 man roster.

That's like 0 for 7 for you now Sunshine. I'm on the Astronomical calendar, not the Julian.

Anyways, we can call it a night and I'll pick back up and continue your severe beating tomorrow at some point.

Right, then why didn't you refer to the Gregorian year 2000 as 2001? What year is it now in your system? Why would anyone other than an astronomer use this system? Why do you? Do you really think anyone is buying your BS?

Bull**** artist (but not a very good one) or just pathological liar? Which is it?

Century - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Astronomical year numbering, used by astronomers, includes a year zero (0). Consequently, the 1st century in these calendars may designate the years 0 to 99 as the 1st century, years 100 to 199 as the second etc. However, in order to regard 2000 as the first year of the 21st century according to the astronomical year numbering, the astronomical year 0 has to correspond to the Gregorian year 1 BC.

Who gives a crap. If you don't want to talk football go away.

How do you know this? You don't. All we know is that BB showed an interest before he was drafted as did, obviously Josh McDaniels. All you know is that the Patriots have installed specific plays that benefit Tim Tebow. All you know is that Tebow has spent a significant amount of time on the practice field with offensive specialist coach Brian Daboll.

Tebow might very well not make the 53 man roster, but the above does not suggest them bringing him in knowing he'd never make it.

Okay, So once again Ill try and say this slowly.

Of all the QB's who run the read option offense(newton, rg3, russel wilson, colin Kaepernic) tebows ypc is second to last, tebows ability to throw is dead last, tebows total wins is dead last.

"But but, tebow isnt a starter!"

Well you just brought up that he WAS a starter, so using those starter numbers hes almost last in every category that matters.

I'm pretty sure both BB and McD knew this was Tebow's last shot in the NFL, and I think thats part of why they picked him up for the league minimum with zero guarantees. Nobody wanted Tebow, because everyone knows hes basically worthless as anything but a way to sell tickets to people who don't really care if their team wins or not, they are paying for a chance to see Tebow.
