And now he has one of the best LT’s in the NFL protecting his blindside.

Saying Peyton is brittle or injury prone is like saying he’s short and fat…….just 100% wrong.

Yeah, Peyton Manning, Alberto Pujols, Prince Fielder now Tim Tebow all have ‘A Mystery Team’. This is just a writer saying making this up because they know in this day and age you do not have to qualify anything.

I said it once and I will say it again. We are in the worst age of sports writing /journalism ever.

Anyone with a blog or column can say ‘unnamed source’ (sourch is themself) or ‘mystery team’

He is definitely a competitor and plays with a lot of emotion and fire and for the most part, he is a winner everywhere he has been. It might sound crazy but maybe we could shape him/turn him into something that has been missed for a long-time–the A-Train, Part II? I don’t know, I can see it, but maybe I really should do something about my insomnia and sleep more…yeah that’s it!

And as far as Manning goes, I told my co-worker this morning that I’d be surprised to see Manning just make it through a season, let alone to the post season. I’m saying he makes it to four or five games max before landing on IR. Broncos’ fans should probably not get too excited just yet.

Tim Tebow is a terrible quarterback. He needs to realize he can’t play quarterback. He is worse than Rick Mirer. Tebow should switch his position to running back.

….a ll the dumb ass sheep posting this garbage. I’ve forgotten more about football than you’ll ever know. Tebow can be successful at QB if given a shot by someone who actually wants him.

Becase of the amazing defence played by God all he has to do is point to the ball and it falls from the sky, or he just has it fall into his own hands and he takes it to the endzone without any effort. The best part about it is that he plays in sandles.

there is no team in the nfl losing money.

thus, this idea that a team needs to bring tebow, or any player to fill seats is totally asinine.

research has clearly shown only two things fill a stadium:

1. a winning team.

2. masochistic, idiotic fans that support bad teams.

PFT is just listing them because 2 years ago McCarthy said it would be fun to develop Tebow. Green Bay is already developing Harrell and Nick Hill. They will probably take someone like WI’s Wilson or BSU’s Moore in the late rounds. Tebow would be too much of a circus for GB.

In all seriousness, I hope NE steers clear of the trainwreck and its groupies.

Elway is extremely ungrateful for what Tebow did for him last year, and when Manning gets crushed and taken out again they are going to be right back where they were, at the very bottom. I really hope Tebow goes to a team that will help him grow as a QB, and appreciates what he brings to the team!

The media goes off something McCarthy said before the draft and we all know you can’t listen to anything a GM or coach says before the draft. Now if anything Thompson is just screwing with the rest of the league to drive up the price. You are crazy if you think Thompson will give up a draft pick for Tebow, he has no use on the Packers. You don’t take Rodgers out of the game to run a gimmik play. He has had something like 1 or 2 INTs in the redzone his WHOLE career. Don’t need help on that side of the ball. Can he rush the passer?

If they take Tebow they give up a pick. They need all the picks they can get. Right now they have a DE suspended for 4 games, a DB who they resigned who wouldn’t make most other teams, a missing pro bowl center, no defensive end in sight, a receiver who is past his prime and won’t retire and this team is thinking superbowl? No way.

Right now they are a worse, not better team, that last year and need a powerful draft to get back to where they were. Not improving.

Hopefully, when one is having a bad game, the other shows up in good game form, 49ers will potentially always have a good QB.

Maybe he would bring that rah rah rah back to the team.
Sanchez needs someone breathing down his neck so he doesn’t forget he’s a few interceptions from being replaced and his money is not guaranteed.

Three year deal with outs for the GM and coaching staff if he doesn’t produce I’m sure.

1. Miami ran the wildcat years ago with a different team and coach. They are trying to replicate the offense in GB which is about as far from the Wildcat as I am from being and NFL QB.

2. Starting Tebow would be worse.

3. The home state argument is the only thing that makes sense (cents) for either of the FLA teams giving Tebow a shot. Although short lived. Once Tebow begins to lose games, the fans will show up not to support, but to boo.

From a football perspective, it doesn’t make any sense for Jax or Miami. It makes sense for him to go some place where they want to develop him not exploit him.

Now Manning picks his team, and forces the only thing worse to happen…24/7 Tebow updates.

#1. The org and the fans are used to the wildcat offense, they ran it pretty well until teams were able to pick up on it several years ago.

#2. They can’t get any worse at the QB position than they have since Marino retired.

#3. It’s his home state and the fins desperately need the attention and revenue for ticket sales generated by Tebow.

IMO they do not value the draft. He has demonstrated a 3rd string NFL arm with some wildcat skills. I cant imagine Denver can expect more than a 5th rounder…if he gets a higher draft pick than that consider it a done deal!

Not very funny, but I think the Raiders could use a new QB as they are going to tire of Carson Palmer and his pick sixes.

Give the starter a rest. Sure, his stats may suffer, but if you’re a contending team, you may increase the chance your starter will be around for the postseason.

I wonder about this myself….if you are loosing or winning, throw in the backup QB for a few snaps to give him some experience. Coaches never do this and they seem like the world collapsed on them if the starting QB is injured and goes out for the season. The NY Giants was just lucky back then when Phil Simms went down, Jeff Hostetler was able to fill in and win a superbowl for them. Most of the time, if the starting QB is out for the season, the team’s season goes along with it.
