The NFL is less interesting without Tebow Time this season. I hope the Tebow blacklisting ends soon!

This Tebow bashing is amazing – if you had a team with all players that had his heart and leadership, you’d have a playoff team for years.

Give me Tim Tebow anyday over that gutless, lazy, and spineless QB we have in Washington – a loser of the first order who can’t lead anyone out of a tunnel if given the chance. Tebow may not be a great QB, but he has one talent that Griffin will never have – he can lead a team to win and make them believe in him – Griffin runs a two minute offense in four minutes and has no sense of urgency and can’t complete any pass over 30 yards in the air with any regularity.

Whether or not the source of the quote remained anonymous does not make the statement any less true. Tebow is terrible.

As far as who said it, it really doesn’t matter. But since the j..e..t…s jetsjetsjets are not likely to make the playoffs at this point, Rex has little to risk by letting Tebow start. Sure, Tebow has shown unimpressive skills, but does that matter if he leads them to wins?

It seems pretty apparent that Rex has lost control of the team entirely. He isn’t making the situation on field better, and the players feel like they can say and do anything they want. It is time for the owner to step in and make a statement. Usually, when you lose you get quite and keep it in house. I say put Tebow in and give the fans what they want.

LT has turned into Tiki Barber with the mouthful of junk coming out of his mouth.

How about LT score a touchdown on 4 and 1 in the biggest play of his career of the AFC Championship(with these same Jets).

Backup QB! Who the hell cares! The power of the media is unbelievable.

LT is a horrible announcer. Judging from his time in SD/NY, he’s also a horrible teammate.

This season is already lost for the Jets and now it’s two seasons with a locker room that’s a mess. Rex should bench the defensive captains for not taking care of business in the locker room. And if it was one of the captains, I’m taking the C patch from the jersey and suspending for another game. Rex needs to get control of this team if he’s going to remain the coach.

Rex Ryan likes his players to speak freely and talk trash.

But you can’t put that genie back in the bottle when they turn on one another.

There’s a reason good coaches keep their players’ comments under wraps. Rex is not a good coach.

I’ve been a die-hard Bears fan since I was 5 years old. Am just as much of a fan when they’re 4-12 and 13-3. But I must say, if the Bears were to ever fall into a circus like this Jets team has going on, it would be hard to remain a fan. Time for a coaching change.

Sounds like a coach who has lost all conrol. Instead of making Tebow the scapegoat everyone had better look at themselves first. Sounds like the dirty laundry neesds to be thrown out

Bart Scott: “If anything, I hope I showed him I was a leader and I never try to be a distraction.”

Well, if you’re never trying to be a distraction, then I guess it just comes naturally for you, Bart!

@Joetoronto

Never really understood the LT bashing. Throughout his career he was a model teammate and citizen, definitely never “quit” on the team. If youre referring to the playoff game against the patriots in 2007 then youre out of your mind. I guess not playing with a partially torn MCL when you have one of the best backup RBs in the entire league is quitting on the team.

You hire a loudmouth punk for a coach, you bring in loudmouth punks for veteran leadership on your team, what did you expect to happen?

The comments sound like the type of thing about 2/3 of the Jets locker room would say.

Wow. Not exactly “The Patriot Way” down there
huh ?

So who thinks is was Woody who wanted Tebow
from the start and Rex never wanted him at all ?

This could be where the split comes.

Sparano Interim head coach by Mid-Late Dec.

Been sayin it since August.

Who cares who said what!! Sanchez isn’t taking the jets anywhere and neither will Tebow… Start McElroy, and maybe well find a diamond in the rough

Before the season everyone assumed it would be a circus year for the Jets. Now it has come true! It’s so great to see as a Patriots fan. I got worried after the first few weeks that they would hold it together, but fortunately they in shambles.

Without a doubt, the Jets are now the #1 whiner, crybaby, circus franchise in all of sports.

Everyone on earth knows it was Antonio Cromartie who made them. How could such ignorant comments come from anyone else but him?
__________________________________

While Cromartie is ignorant, the comments were not. They were extremely accurate. Tim Tebow is a terrible quarterback by NFL standards.

Asking the old detective question of “who benefits”, I’m starting to think “anonymous” is Rex Ryan. What can be better for Rex then everyone talking about a back-up quarterback who almost never plays instead of the Jets lousy 3-6 record.

So now, when asked why he signed with the Jets, Scott says: “It seemed like a good idea at the time.”

Since this story about Tebow is going nowhere (and let’s face it, about every stories from the Jets are useless), I’d like to propose a “Let’s not talk about anyone or anything from the Jets” Thursday for the rest of the season.

This way, everyone will be happy.

“I think the anonymous person is probably some smoke in the air or a fart off somebody’s [butt].”

The collective IQ of the Jets’ locker room just increased by 40 points.
