Tebow is a talented athlete with a good attitude who has done nothing but win when given a chance. Why did the Jets even get him if they were never going to utilize him. I'd Put him somewhere, look nat MICHAEL rOBINSON THE fORMER PSU QB did for Seattle last week. He was a QB but is now an FB and a valuable blocker and short yardage guy.

Tebow is also a capable leader and would fit in well in Phila or Tennesse.

I would say this and I am all about giving young QBs every attempt at bettering themselves through playtime, Blaine Gabbert is horrible and never was any good. What does Jville really have to lose, they can't lose any more games then they did last year. Then again lets follow the NFL monkey see monkey do rule and instead of trying something different we will just suck forever cause we will never step out and take a lead and always follow.

Say Tebow went to Jville, there would be no way he would lose more games then they did this year. Say he wins 4,5, or even 6 games I guarantee they would have sold more tickets earning the team more revenue giving them more money to throw at a superstar or even keeping a young franchise QB that they pick up in this years or future drafts.

The NFL will always have the same teams contending for superbowls because there are too many followers and not enough leaders controlling these teams. Take the Patriots they had a long stretch of crappy teams then bellichick comes and runs the team different then any other team in the NFL and boom they are the team that all teams try to duplicate. Except they can't because bellichick is a leader not a follower.

Like I said in another Tebow thread...JAX would be wiser to build their own through the draft than take on this project.

After watching Tebow last year, it is easy to realize that the defense won the games. Mike Golic on Mike&Mike in the morning said it the best way that I've heard about. In the NFL, you have to score 22 points to expect to win the game. If you hold the other team to less than 22, as a rule, they WILL LOSE. If your team doesn't score 22, you should expect to LOSE that game.

Take a look at last years Broncos scores for the games Tebow was the starter.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2011_Denver_Broncos_season 

Look at how many times the Broncos won the game, but failed to score 22 points. Miami, KC, NYJ, SD, Chi were all wins with less than 22 points scored for the Broncos.

The DEFENSE won the games for the Broncos...

Tebow sucked for most of the game, then when he was presented with as many opportunities as any QB could expect to get in a game, he got lucky at just the right time and got credited with the win.

Additionally, if you cater an offense to utilize Tebow's talents (running around in the backfield and having receivers run to areas where he can find them, instead of receivers running routes and the QB staying stationary), and he gets hurt, what QB is going to step in and be productive? Vick is the only one I can think of that could play a similar style. There may be others, but none come immediately to mind.

As a GM, would YOU be willing to stake YOUR JOB on Tebow, and maybe Vick, succeeding?

What about the Coach? Mularkey got ONE YEAR to prove he could win in the NFL as a Coach. What Coach in his right mind is going to take the job, with all the pressure to produce, and WANT Tebow as his QB? Not me that's for sure...

Build through the draft, with a couple of FA's to fill stop-gap positions.

Trying to rework the entire offense to fit a single player is just stupid...

So, Tebow has won an OT playoff game in Denver, and Peyton has not-matter of fact, threw interception that set up FG. I know his mechanics are awful, but the guy wins.

Peyton won the AFC, Tebow backed into the Playoffs. Big difference.

BTW, don't look at it as a quote, look at it as an idea that pretty much works out. Check it for the team you root for and see if it pans out. I've found that it does.

The Broncos won their division both this year and last no matter how you want to look at it.

It is an interesting concept but I am a believer in each game is its own. I mean stats like that are cool to look at but really can change depending on the style of team. With the pass happy league it is now there are more possessions per game and scoring drives take less time. Teams used to run the ball to slow the game down and keep it out of the hands of a superior QB on the other team and now you just don't see 80 yard drives that were dominated by the run.

Either way If my team won by scoring 22 then I am happy but I am none the less happy if they win and only scored 10
