If all you're talking about is winning, then how is it a bad choice? You have Sanchez starting and throw in your wildcat offense, It would create that much more work for the DC of the other team.

Imagine having to do your normal preparation for Sanchez and then have to add prep for Tebow? If Tebow can move the ball when being used as a starter, he should ABSOLUTELY be able to move the ball as a "fill in".

[Chidi29]

Makes sense. The team lost Brad Smith and are looking for another WildCat player. Tebow fits that bill.

Yes, Sparano is now the Jets' OC. 4th round for Tebow. Look how quickly they said "See ya" to Timmy Teblow. :chuckle:

[NCSteeler]

It doesn't make sense because they don't have a clear cut strong starter. This just begs for a situation where they find Sanchez having a few struggles and the Tebowmania will ensue and it will be nothing but trouble. Sanchez doesn't have the strong leader mentality ti will take to endure that and in a year or two they will be trash searching for another HC and another QB.

Oh, and kudos to Elway for one of the greatest escapes in NFL history. He saved the Broncos bigtime.

[venom]

Now the Jets have 2 Quarterbacks that can't throw

[fansince'76]

I don't think Tebow wearing his religion on his sleeve is going to play well in the Big Apple at all.

This is really the correct way to use Tebow. If you use him to confuse and deceive about 10 or 15 plays a game, it works for the same reason Kordell Stewart worked in that role. If you put him in as the starter, he'll suck for the same reason Kordell Stewart sucked - that type of crap is no longer confusing if you do it every down, so you're left with just a below-average QB. Will be interesting to see where they go with this.

[polamalubeast]

Tebow + QB controversy + biggest media market in America = Amazing

[XxKnightxX]

Talk radio will suck here now - God help me .

Jody Mac , Michael Kay and Don the Fat One LaGreca are gonna beat that to the ground.

[steelerdude15]

I mean, Sanchez is better than Tebow.

:chuckle:

[ShutDown24]

If Holmes thought playing with Sanchez is rough, wait until the fans pressure Rex into starting Tebow a few weeks into the season. That team is going to have the worst chemistry of all time.

As far as the move from an actual football standpoint, the Jets made an awful deal. Sure, he'll run the wildcat. But Joe McKnight can run it fine. I don't see how you use 4th round pick to acquire a wildcat quarterback. Tebow isn't there to run specific packages, he'll be the starter at some point. It's a shame too, I thought we might get to see Drew Stanton have a chance this year.

[GodfatherofSoul]

A 4th round pick (and a 6th?) to motivate a lazy starting QB might be worth it.

[O'Malley]

A 4th round pick (and a 6th?) to motivate a lazy starting QB might be worth it.

I don't think anything will change the fact Sanchez sucks... Now they just have two crappy QB's and a loud mouth coach... I'm just waiting for the next Super Bowl prediction from Rex..

[Godfather]

If you have a mediocre quarterback, you don't trade for Tebow. The fans will be screaming for him as soon as Sanchez throws his first pick.

But as long as TT finds a way to win, I'm glad to see him in the AFC East...

[venom]

The Jets and Broncos deal may have a hangup in it according to Adam Schefter . If the deal is nullified , its possible that Tebow goes to St. Louis . It has to do with money going to Denver



The same money issues in Tim Tebow's contract caused complications for Jacksonville trying to complete trade. Now Jets facing them.



Tim Tebow has $5 million worth of recapture language, meaning Jets would have to pay back money to Denver. Jets might be unwilling. Complex.

[polamalubeast]

Filed to ESPN (1): Denver and Jets have encountered hangup in language in Tim Tebow's contract that could nullify trade.

[suitanim]

Between the two guys, the Jets just might be ab;e to muster the equivalent of slightly-above-average QB play.

This wasn't a bad deal. The 4th probably would have been a project QB anyway.

[venom]

The Jets never read Tebows contract - They have to pay the Broncos millions for Tebows bonuses- Typical Jets stupidness

[polamalubeast]

Broncos source says Jets agreed to Tebow trade -- and it's their fault for not thoroughly reading contract. They contend trade should stand.


http://twitter.com/JeffDarlington/statuses/182563267036708864

[polamalubeast]

Denver never asked for the money back, the contract was written that way, and the Jets must not have looked at the fine print of the deal


https://twitter.com/michaelombardi/status/182565962053197825

[Count Steeler]

Heard there may be a problem with this trade. Apparently not a done deal just yet.

But Tebow + Rex + Sanchez + Santonio = 3 guaranteed Super Bowls. When will Rex say it?

[polamalubeast]

The fact the Jets tweeted out the trade without having fully understood the wording of Tebow's contract, as DEN asserts, not good for JETS


https://twitter.com/JasonLaCanfora/status/182566821294112769

[polamalubeast]

More craziness filed to ESPN: Jaguars are back in the mix, seeing if they now can pull off a trade with Denver for Tim Tebow.


http://twitter.com/AdamSchefter/statuses/182567318398844929

[tube517]

LMAO Jets. Big dummies.

[fansince'76]

All this fuss over a dude who will be selling insurance in about 3 years...

[polamalubeast]

Tim Tebow trade now is expected to come down to either Jaguars or Jets. Jaguars making play to get the player they failed to land earlier.

https://twitter.com/#!/AdamSchefter/status/182576861228957696

[polamalubeast]

Maybe the Jets never read Santonio's contract? Or Sanchez's extension? This is all starting to make sense now ...

Getch' yo' popcorn ready. :pop2:

[zulater]

The Jags need to make this make this deal. He'll sell out that stadium.

The Rams are NOT interested in Tebow. Shefter is an idiot. They're looking for a backup QB and have contacted the teams that were interested in Tebow to see who might become available.

[SteelerFanInStl]

The Jags need to make this make this deal. He'll sell out that stadium.

Yea, if all you care about is selling out a few games. Those fans will run away as soon as they lose a bunch of games, which they will with Tebow. They've invested too much in Gabbert to just turn around and bring in Tebow.

[SMR]

I do. The Jets are retarded that's why it makes perfect sense to me. :lol:

And they have Big Mouth Ryan as their head coach!

When will it ever end?.......

[SteelGhost]

Maybe....just MAYBE Sanchez's will have to workout harder now that he has "competition" :lol:

[polamalubeast]

Tim Tebow is being allowed to pick the team he wants to go to. He picks the trade. Jets or Jacksonville.

[steelreserve]

What I was most amazed to learn by reading this was that Sanchez's contract extension was for 3 years and $40.5 MILLION.

I mean, what's going on these days? Is there a new rule that says you have to pay your QB $10M+ even if he's not that good? Used to be a guy like that would be making a about a third of that, with a chance to hit it big if he ever, you know ... DID something to prove he was worth being paid like a franchise QB. Then you see things like ... Kyle Orton for $9M, Alex Smith for $8M, Matt Cassel for $11M. Seems like now they just pay everyone like a franchise QB and out of some hope that getting paid like one will make you improve into actually being one.

[polamalubeast]

Twitter broke for me

Adam Schefter

Denver says it will do the trade that is best for its franchise. Jets or Jags.


https://twitter.com/AdamSchefter/status/182626976165675009

[polamalubeast]

Denver is trading Tebow to Jets. More now on ESPN.

Well, if the media is to be believed, there are at least 37 franchise QBs in the NFL, and 20 of those are in the top 5. :chuckle:

[polamalubeast]

Just heard from John Fox, Tebow to Jets FINALLY done


http://twitter.com/JayGlazer/statuses/182631492957110272

[SteelGhost]

Yep it's on NFLN now

[ShutDown24]

I just don't think the head coach is strong enough to handle all the chaos this move is going to bring. I wouldn't mind having the player, but everything that comes with him? And a fourth round pick? That's a lot of baggage for a gadget player.

[SteelerEmpire]

Like they said, the 1st bad pass Sanchez throws this season their fans are gonna be yelling to put Tebow in. Gonna be fun to watch.

[BigNastyDefense]

I won't be shocked if there are "Tebow" chants in training camp. Now they have three shitty quarterbacks on the roster.

[GodfatherofSoul]

If you have a mediocre quarterback, you don't trade for Tebow. The fans will be screaming for him as soon as Sanchez throws his first pick.

But as long as TT finds a way to win, I'm glad to see him in the AFC East...

I think that's the point. They want someone nipping at Sanchez's heals.

[JayC]

i rather watch tebow than sanchez at quarterback. can't wait until sanchez is benched

[steelerdiva]

Somewhere Fireman Ed is working on a new Tebow chant :lol:

[st33lersguy]

At least they get a quarterback that is productive for one quarter rather than zero quarters

[Count Steeler]

Hey fansince76, are the women of Denver in a swoon this morning? Timmy Tebow has left the building.

Tebowmania moving to the Big Apple. Can't wait for the circus to begin. Of course, the ringleader will be none other than Rexy himself.

[tube517]

i rather watch tebow than sanchez at quarterback. can't wait until sanchez is benched

It depends if Rex likes Tebow's footwork
