My MiL is a Cards fan, but wants to go to Jacksonville just to see Tebow play. The Jags will miss out on some Tebow-worshiper money if they don't keep him on the 53 and I assume they know that.

uninja Posted August 17, 2021 Share Posted August 17, 2021 That 'block' he executed during the Jags/Browns preseason game may have been one of the saddest and most amateurish attempts and inline blocking I've ever seen in professional football. Look for the Pat McAfee bit on it, he savagely lays into Tebow and deservedly so. Watching Tebow try to block is a perfect example of how hard it is to do properly and how unappreciated the skill is.

Rc2catch Posted August 17, 2021 Share Posted August 17, 2021 (edited) Beane is asleep at the wheel. We are all about position flexibility. A tight end who can sub at quarterback. We can keep 7 defensive ends AND Taiwan Jones. Trade Trubisky for multiple 1st rounders. This gives us so much room on the roster for activities Oooh dang I forgot the Knox haters..

NoHuddleKelly12 Posted August 17, 2021 Share Posted August 17, 2021 Just remember as you’re readying your slings and arrows for dancing on Tebow’s vacated roster spot, one Kelvin Benjamin was also on an NFL roster to start this TC year, and was let go for allegedly non-football related reasons. Bonus: isn’t Nate Peterman still in the NFL too? I for one applaud Tebow’s effort, he’s a good dude on and off the field. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Freddie's Dead Posted August 17, 2021 Share Posted August 17, 2021 Why all the Tebow hate? All this guy ever did was want to play football and baseball. It may have been smoke and mirrors, but he actually won a playoff game as a QB 10 years ago. By all reports, a good guy and a good teammate, lives clean, so why the hate? Rae Carruth didn't get this much hate. I don't understand it. 5 3 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FilthyBeast Posted August 17, 2021 Share Posted August 17, 2021 If anything Tebow was a great short term leader and helped a lot of these young guys out in Jacksonville during the offseason but there's a reason 31 other teams had zero interest in him despite the proposed position change.

The Frankish Reich Posted August 17, 2021 Share Posted August 17, 2021 (edited) My Tebow post-mortem (and I really do think this is finally the end of his professional athletic career): He was a victim of his own early success. He was handed the QB role for a floundering 2011 Broncos team with a great defense and, well, Kyle Orton. And then the team went on a most unlikely winning streak, characterized by great defense and, well, a really good running game (Willis McGahee - yeah, really - and the kind of production an 11-on-11 run game will get you). And yes, they did win a playoff game using exactly the same formula, and they won it by Tebow and Demariyus Thomas hooking up on a 9-in-the-box slant that went for an 80 yard TD. It was the legend of "all he does is win" Tebow in Denver. Elway had the good sense to let him walk when Peyton Manning became available. He was clearly one helluva football player just as clearly as he wasn't anyone's idea of a franchise QB. It was too late to turn him into a TE/RB/Special Teams/Goal-Line QB guy. There was too much history, too much "legend," he was too polarizing for that. Rex Ryan tried (as usual, not too hard) and couldn't figure it out. Coaches were scared to use him at QB instead of more boring mediocrities because who knows? You stick him in at QB for, say, the post-EJ Manuel 2014 Bills and maybe he goes all 2011 Broncos again and then you've got yourself a QB controversy with no Peyton Manning waiting in the wings. Hell, if Rex had started him in 2012 instead of Mark Sanchez (6-10, 13 TDs, 18 INTs) it's likely his Jets would've squeezed out a couple more wins. So a very good and useful NFL player (just not a starting QB) never really gets an opportunity until he's too old and his old college coach comes calling. I didn't like Tebow in college ... that good clean living Christian boy thing was all a bit too much for me. But he grew on me in Denver. He just seems to really be that corny, that real in his understanding of himself and his beliefs. I wish him the best, and part of me is a little sorry that we never got to see what a creative coach in the right situation (Sean Payton?) could've done with him on the football field after that wild 2011 ride was over.
