Tebow goes to...

now that Tebow's been upstaged by Manning, what is his future? I tried to include every team with a shaky starting QB situation, even if some of these are obviously longshots.

frogbs, Monday, 19 March 2012 18:18 (thirteen years ago)

I'm taking Jacksonville with 90% probability.

Johnny Fever, Monday, 19 March 2012 18:19 (thirteen years ago)

Miami or backing up Manning, I think.

polyphonic, Monday, 19 March 2012 18:19 (thirteen years ago)

I'm voting JAX too but honestly, who knows with this league

frogbs, Monday, 19 March 2012 19:06 (thirteen years ago)

taking his talent...elsewhere. anywhere, plz. (and i will watch, because it is compelling and lol).

obv i want him gone, but externalities aside, would he be a great backup to manning? no backup will be able to run mannings offense really, and here you have a dude who loves the ball in his hands, trusts his feet, and will go out there and run around and through ppl.

low-rise concentration camps (Hunt3r), Monday, 19 March 2012 19:10 (thirteen years ago)

I think Manning might not be too thrilled about having Tebow hanging around, and ultimately if that's the case then Tebow is gone or else Manning wouldn't have agreed.

polyphonic, Monday, 19 March 2012 19:13 (thirteen years ago)

solid poll, frogbs

3hunn O))) (J0rdan S.), Monday, 19 March 2012 19:13 (thirteen years ago)

think he goes in a cave now, for three days? so oakland?

bnw, Monday, 19 March 2012 19:14 (thirteen years ago)

jacksonville seems.... too obvious, i feel like things just never work out exactly as they would seem.

i feel like maybe the dolphins would have interest but i also think they're aware that they'd be seen as utterly desperate if they traded for him, and as such they may just lay off of him

so i voted cleveland... which makes very little sense but he's not too dissimilar to mccoy? feel like they'd just draft another QB instead, but i don't know.

staying to back up manning makes some sense cuz you'd have to be a complete fool not to have a serious back up for a guy coming off of SPINAL FUSION SURGERY, but i don't think they would want to deal w/ the controversy, even tho you know tebow would be a foot soldier

3hunn O))) (J0rdan S.), Monday, 19 March 2012 19:16 (thirteen years ago)

contemplating tebow's future always involves some magical thinking poly xpost

low-rise concentration camps (Hunt3r), Monday, 19 March 2012 19:17 (thirteen years ago)

if jacksonville can get him for a four or something, they should do it -- aside from the ramifications of tebow going back to north florida, gabbert was an absolute utter disaster last year

3hunn O))) (J0rdan S.), Monday, 19 March 2012 19:17 (thirteen years ago)

gabbert SUUUUUX, i have to magically think jax is the place

low-rise concentration camps (Hunt3r), Monday, 19 March 2012 19:18 (thirteen years ago)

well we've seen what happens when you put Tebow in a regular offense built around a good passer. what's interesting about this (and bad for Tebow, obviously) is that you kinda have to change your whole offense to accomodate his "skills", which is why I don't think he'd be a good backup for Manning at all

frogbs, Monday, 19 March 2012 19:19 (thirteen years ago)

gabbert is the worst rookie qb i've ever seen outside of jimmy clausen

granted jax's WRs last year would've embarrassed an arena football team but....

3hunn O))) (J0rdan S.), Monday, 19 March 2012 19:20 (thirteen years ago)

well i think the thing w/ tebow is that everyone in denver is a holdover from last year, so i guess they could probably go back to something resembling the tebow offense in a pinch

3hunn O))) (J0rdan S.), Monday, 19 March 2012 19:21 (thirteen years ago)

miami imo

these pretzels are makeing me horney (Hungry4Ass), Monday, 19 March 2012 19:22 (thirteen years ago)

I don't really see Denver practicing two offenses, but you never know. If he stays I'd think he would get used in some TE sets or occasionally be used as a fullback? I dunno Denver really has the possibility to do some goofy things offensively now but I'm not sure if they'll want to, especially if Jacksonville is going to offer them a 3rd or 4th for him

frogbs, Monday, 19 March 2012 19:25 (thirteen years ago)

broncos line already has big enough challenge learning how to pass block tbh

low-rise concentration camps (Hunt3r), Monday, 19 March 2012 19:26 (thirteen years ago)

i think they'll trade him just bcuz the media frenzy of having tebow AND peyton at the same training camp would be totally suffocating

3hunn O))) (J0rdan S.), Monday, 19 March 2012 19:27 (thirteen years ago)

miami's the best possible destination because you get to enjoy a full season of tebowmania but also get that #1 pick at the end of it to draft barkley.

these pretzels are makeing me horney (Hungry4Ass), Monday, 19 March 2012 19:28 (thirteen years ago)

denver already calling around, supposedly

Roberto Spiralli, Monday, 19 March 2012 19:31 (thirteen years ago)

Why does everyone think Matt Barkley is the obvy #1 qb pick in 2013? I mean, I get why. But WHY?

Johnny Fever, Monday, 19 March 2012 19:32 (thirteen years ago)

because QB is the most important position and matt barkley is the best college nfl-style QB

3hunn O))) (J0rdan S.), Monday, 19 March 2012 23:58 (thirteen years ago)

Barkley put up big numbers in a shitty year for the Pac-10, but then again so did Luck.

seems a lot more likely if Al Davis were alive, but yeah I can see it

frogbs, Tuesday, 20 March 2012 13:51 (thirteen years ago)

there's literally 0% chance he goes to oakland -- b/w palmer and pryor they've already given up three high draft picks for QBs, there's no way they're giving up anything for tebow

i think they have the least amount of draft picks in the league over the next two seasons

3hunn O))) (J0rdan S.), Tuesday, 20 March 2012 13:58 (thirteen years ago)

Oakland would be fucking hilarious.

Tebow going to the Jets would be only slightly less hilarious ... should that happen, though, and if you hear of a large explosion somewhere in northern NJ that day it will be exploding in rage.

well, the jets shafted Chad Pennington in a similar manner too ... threw him overboard for 2008's shiny off-season object Bret Favre ... although in Chad's case his career really WAS near an end.

so this is SOP for the Jets. dunno why Sanchez expected any better.

mark sanchez sucks, also the jets have an irrational belief in him per their extension of him, so they're not shafting him

mark sanchez sucks, but he's 'led his team' to two afc championships, which is a good bit more than tebow has done

championship games, of course

sanchez is never going to be a top nfl qb, tebow is never gonna be an nfl qb

ESPN will still find ways to attribute victories to Tebow even if he doesn't take a snap or appear on the field at all next year

Bo Jackson Overdrive, Thursday, 22 March 2012 04:09 (thirteen years ago)

while i'm not blown away by sanchez at this point, i'd be willing to give him another year or two before totally throwing him to the wolves. that, of course, depended on the Jets not being a Mickey Mouse operation and as the day's events have clearly shown (shit, as the past several decades have shown) the Jets are just a Mickey Mouse operation.

“Tony likes to use the wildcat, and Rex is a big proponent because of how hard it is to defend a good one,” a source said.

“[Why] bring Tebow in when we need to bring in more weapons for Mark Sanchez?” cornerback Antonio Cromartie tweeted after news of the trade broke on Wednesday. “Let’s build the team around him.”

Where else would a defensive back feel comfortable blasting a fresh-off-the-presses trade? Cromartie didn’t realize that Tebow is every bit another weapon for Sanchez, even if it means he’s taking some snaps when Sanchez isn’t on the field.

A change-of-pace offensive package, and a 6-4, 240-pound bull to run it, shakes up the Jets offense and makes it easier for Sanchez to operate. It also should help put points on the board.

“What we’ve become is a diverse, dynamic offense that’s going to make it more difficult for opposing defenses to defend,” Tannenbaum said Wednesday night.

And if Tebow’s arrival, complete with his nation of devotees, puts a little pressure on Sanchez, maybe makes him look over his shoulder a bit, then that’s a positive, too. Tebow wasn’t acquired to be the starter in New York, but his presence creates the illusion of a contest.

The jury remains out on the USC product. He has done some great things – winning four road playoff games, showing poise beyond his years and displaying a canny ability to lead late-game comebacks.

Tebow may not fit into the “let’s get a [expletive] snack” franchise at first glance, but that’s mostly because he is unlikely to seek out the spotlight. Even during his magical run as a starter in Denver he rarely did more than one media session per week and spent his time concentrating on game plans, not sideshows.
