Tim Tebow sucking it up

[Nukleopatra]

Would you please stop posting that Tebow shit in a Klaus Nomi thread?

I never thought Klaus Nomi would ever take first billing over Tim Tebow.

You guys really make me proud.

This from the ESPN Insider rumours section:

It's being widely assumed that Tim Tebow's best shot at NFL success might be in an offense that is willing to use him in an innovative way, as his performance down the stretch of Florida's schedule confirmed that he has limitations on his abilities as a pocket passer (see KC Joyner's full breakdown in the Draft Lab). Could he be a jolt to the New England Patriots' offense? It's a rumor that's been floating around all season, and it's back, courtesy of the Boston Globe's Albert Breer.

Breer asked an anonymous NFL scout what the perfect landing spot would be for Tebow in the NFL, and the response was "New England." It makes a bit of sense, given the fact that the Pats have a well-established vet in Tom Brady, so Tebow could develop at his own pace; moreover, the Pats are in need of an offensive overhaul, and adopting some plays geared towards Tebow's strengths could be part of that overhaul.

Tebow's recent struggles at the Senior Bowl notwithstanding, there's a chance the Pats use one of their three second-rounders on No. 15.

I think that would be a good fit for Tebow and the Pats, but Jacksonville will take him. It's all about the $$$$$$$$$$$.

EDIT: Hell, if the Bucs are smart they'll take him at 3. I know it sounds crazy, but Tebow will sell tickets. As things sit now, Tampa will have blacked-out games next season. That's a franchise killer. Again i say Tebow will be the next "A-train".

Why do you think Tebow will sell tickets? I know he's popular, but he is not going to improve the Jags as a team whatsoever. He will say little to no playing time at QB, FB, or HB in his first year.

He is not going to be winning any games for them. Maybe the first couple games sell out, but if the Jags go 2-6 in the first 8 they'll be in the same position that they are in now.

 

[Tailback U]

But you realize that he won't even see the field?

You know what sells tickets? Winning games.

Drafting busts who will bomb last time I checked doesn't exactly get the turnstiles flowing. Except in Detroit, who just seem to be a city of masochists who enjoy pain.

Why would the Patriots blow a 1st or 2nd rounder on a gadget play QB who will see the field 3 or 4 times a week when they have much more glaring needs, especially after the way they got shat on by Balitmore. Tebow isn't going to get them past the hump.

 

[Tailback U]

That's exactly what I'm saying. Winning sells tickets. Jags fans are stupider than Al Davis if they are going to buy season tix simply because the Jags draft Tebow.

 

[NAHSTE]

Winning sells tickets. LOL at Tebow selling tickets. They'll just watch old Florida games on TV if they want to see Tebow.

 

[Nukleopatra]

Jacksonville isn't far from Al Davis status, when it comes to drafting.

But Tebow at #11? l o l.

I'm not saying it won't happen, but........... l o l.

 

[Tailback U]

You calling him a bust is as silly as me calling him a starter [at QB]. We don't know.

I never called him a bust - though I think its likely - just said that he isn't going to see the field much this season.

Dude.

Again: MOST TICKETS ARE SOLD BEFORE THE SEASON BEGINS. TEBOW IS MONEY DOWN HERE.

Jacksonville an Tampa are in deep financial shit. They desperately need to sell season tickets and luxury boxes and corporate partners. For better or for worse, TEBOW IS A SUPER-STAR. $$$$$$$$ IN THE BANK. In case you haven't noticed, this recession is really bad. Companies are trying to survive in the short-term -- they'll worry about the long-term later. Tebow = quick fix.

get it?

And if Jacksonville were smart, they'd simply install a Tebow-friendly offence.
I always felt Atlanta made a mistake in Michael Vick's prime trying to make him something he wasn't (a precise west coast QB).

 

[Shayn•Da•Pain]

I'd personally like to see Tebow play for Miami. I'd really like to see what that looks like with Tebow in the wildcat, specifically with Brown and Williams. Very interesting subject. I think any team could have him if they want. I think a team will take a chance on him in the 2nd to 3rd round if they expect a talented HB semi-QB skills, but if every NFL team expects him to play QB I don't think he'll get drafted day one. 4th to 6th round QB potential. Only Barkley's golf swing is uglier than that throwing motion.

 

[Juggernaut]

his swing isn't that bad...


lol j/k

So in other words your saying the Jaguar and Bucs fans are all retards? I mean seriously, especially in this economy, who buys season tickets just to watch a QB which every talking head on TV, on the radio and in print is saying will not make it in the NFL unless he sits on the pine for 3 or 4 years, and even they are saying at best he will be an average starter.

 

[Nukleopatra]

Tim Tebow is like the second coming of Jesus Christ in Florida, I'm not sure why any of you are arguing that fact.. The state of Florida would fucking love to keep him there, and Jacksonville's owner has already admitted to having a major man-crush on the guy. However, he isn't worth the #11 pick, so I would be shocked if they end up taking the guy. I mean, I would be ''Oakland Raiders select'' type of shocked.

Whoever does end up taking the guy, will be have a ton of media, more than usual, and a new fanbase - and yes, they will sell a few more tickets, at least for a while. Arizona, possibly? If he ends up in Philly, I may actually kill myself. He isn't even worth a first, though, so this draft will be very very interesting.

 

[Realist]

Tebow would definitely sale tickets in Jax but after the 1st half of the year, if Tebow isn't playing(or stinking it up) and Jax has a losing record, Jax would probably be back to blackouts...

LOL, a Jags player posted this on their forum:

So im at a bank trying to cash a check, and the bank teller starts up some convo about how Tebow will save the jaguars. And the hole time, when i asked him what does tebow bring to the game that the jaguars dont already have. yes i can understand the intangibles such as leadership etc. but as a football player, what does he bring that will take the jags to the next level??? he couldnt tell me. so let me drop a quick top 5 for all u fans. this is my top 5 things you should know before you assume Tim Tebow will the tebow jesus in teal town.



5. He cant throw. PERIOD.
4. He cant read any coverage other than probably cover 2 or man cov. PERIOD (the only cov. in college lol)
3. the QB wildcat WILL NOT WORK IN THIS LEAGUE. PERIOD
2. He doesnt know how to take a snap from center, nor is he even comfortable enough to.
1. HE CANT THROW. and thats really something you either have or not, never seen a qb who couldnt ever throw, just all of a sudden beable to throw just because hes now in the NFL.


now if u want to say, tebow will save the Jags TICKET sales... sure, he may beable to help them alot, until people realize this aint gator country no more lol. by the way.... GO BUY SEASON TICKETS!!!!!!!!! Ill be Damned if i have to come out for pregame warmups to a COMPLETELY EMPTY STADIUM ANYMORE!!!!!!!

And, here comes the Jags' forum version of bigwill33 the super mod:

Love and agree with your take Uche, however, Tebow threads belong in our College Forum.

I'm moving this there now.

 

[dave]

Bigwill sucks.

Who is he here?

Thanks for destroying MM, fuckface.

 

[Rayman]

Thread derailed.

 

[NAHSTE]

Bigwill sucks.

Thanks for destroying MM, fuckface.

I don't think bigwill is here, at least I hope not, I was just making fun of that mod on the Jags forum for being a super-mod and moving an NFL player's thread. Edited my post for clarity.

Tebow's release makes Byron Leftwich look like the damn Flash...


Tebow = NFL Wedgebuster
