Why would Sanchez want him there? He has crappy throwing stats like Tebow, but wins less games.

Yeah, but it is Peyton Fricken…. oh yeah… nevermind. It’s just Tim Tebow.

Jets promised Drew Stanton they wouldn’t add another QB

_______________________________

1) They didn’t add another Quarterback… they added Tebow….

2) Stanton would ask for his release? Because so many teams are lined up to get a shot at signing Drew Stanton?

There is srill ANOTHER QB on the Jets roster. Alabama National Championship winning QB McElroy. McElroy played real well in preseason but got hurt in the final preseason game and was put on IR. He would have started lasr season as the Jrts #2 QB.

Sanchez was terrible all year long and won’t last much longer there.

I bet they release McElroy and he goes on to have an outstanding career somewhere else. I would find that quite humorous.

And John told Teebow he earned the right to be the starter at the injunction of training camp….. Then came Peyton

well they told the truth they didn’t get another quarterback…you can’t consider tebow a quarterback because a quarterback knows how to throw and complete a pass…which tebow clearly can’t do

Mike Tannenbaum has gotten too much of a pass over the past few years. Granted, the team has performed well in the playoffs and gone on one of the best runs in Jets history. But the truth is that the Jets have lousy depth all over the field, an offensive line that completely collapsed last year (and needs at an absolute minimum to replace Wayne Hunter, not least because RTs in the AFC East will now have Mario Williams lining up against them twice a year), and one of the slowest teams in aggregate in the league. If the Jets disbanded and a draft were held of their players, think about what the order would be. Obviously Revis and Mangold are top shelf, then D’Brickashaw and Harris. Then who? Probably Sione Pouha, or maybe Cromartie. Otherwise there just isn’t a lot of talent on this team. Every team has a wide receiver like Holmes, a tight end like Keller, a running back much better than Shonn Greene, a quarterback….

And now we learn that Mr. T lied to Drew Stanton, inducing him to sign with lies about a backup role. Where have we heard this before? Pete Kendall, Chris Baker, Laveranues Coles, and surely the list goes on. All of this adds up to a very shaky franchise, and a very overrated GM.

“La Canfora also said that Mark Sanchez doesn’t want Tebow in New York.”

Hey Drew, there’s always the “Tanya Harding Method” of getting to the top of the depth chart.

Tebow brought in to bring some stability to the locker room instead has the exact opposite effect. Who would have predicted that?

So what’s the problem? They didn’t add another QB, they added an H back.

Does anyone understand why players don’t trust the front office’s in sports? Tannenbaum…the next jackass GM like AJ Smith….

Liar Liar pants on fire. I would ask for a trade or out of the contract. Only problem, that promise was oral and not in writing so he has nada going for him to annul the contract.
I wouldn’t want to be anywhere near that circus they call the Jets. It just gets better and better.

Tebow will have to talk with Rex about his languare in the locker room too. Like time-outs for being a potty mouth.

What’s the difference, players do this to ownership every year.. Except it’s in a legal binding contract.. I sign and play for five years for this much money…. But oh yea,, after I have a really productive 3rd or 4th season I’m gonna cry and demand more money than what I agreed too.. And if u don’t pay me more then I won’t play….. Sorry Stanton,, kick rocks…..

Yes, he is in the biggest market of the country, but that’s not going to help him when he’s the third string quarterback and never takes the field.

By: johnnycash19

Man I feel bad for him. He is a pretty decent back up and like people have been saying he only left Detroit to be a #2 not #3.

The worse part about it, Stanton might actually be better than both the QB’s ahead of him right now.

By: steelerdynasty2010

steelerdynasty2010 — Thu, 22 Mar 2012 12:52:59 +0000

he’s not a rookie, so he should know better. it’s a business, and the player personnel landscape is constantly changing so sometimes the team strategy for personnel changes. they didnt bring him in to start so why would he believe they were going to honor that promise if in fact they even actually made it.
and of course Sanchez doesnt want him there. he saw how the fans got Tebow a job in Denver. he’d much rather have a non-threat like brunell behind him so when rex “threatened” to replace him as the starter, he could have a nice laugh about it on the sideline.

So the Jets lied to Stanton? How ’bout that. He should have stayed home in Michigan.

This is why YOU NEVER MAKE PROMISES TO GUYS ABOUT THEIR ROLE. Ye gods. People hate BB but he doesn’t do that and it’s a big reason his players have respect for him. DON’T BS YOUR PLAYERS!!! That’s one of the biggest thing they hate.

Mike T and the Jets have a long history of lying to players to get them in the door. They should cut Stanton loose, but I know they won’t… at least not until it is too late for him to get onto another team, because that’s the kind of person Mike T is.

There’s a very good chance Drew Stanton asks for his release or a trade.”

————————————————————-

No way. He’s a career 3rd stringer who has brutal accuracy. He’ll be happy to have a job.

Can Tebow play RT? No? 4 QBs is cool though.

Haha..and he believed that. Drew Stanton, next.

Yeah, that’s the ONLY reason he left Detroit, as it should be. The Lions haven’t filled his slot yet, I hope they cut him loose and he comes back home.
