    1000% correct., right on the money response.

    Here is my crazy question. Assume Tebow becomes a bonafide threat and consistent runner with the occasional throw to keep the defenses honest. Could he be a full time fullback/2nd TE for us?

    Can we either move this piece of shit thread to the Tebow forum, or just shut the whole fucking thing down?

    it does not matter who starts. unless they fix the o-line, especially right tackle, both of them are dead meat.

    We crucify him the same way the Jews did Jesus Christ

    Sanchez may be traded in the scenario posited by the OP. The Jets would have to pay part of his salary. And the Jets will be looking for a new franchise Qb, unless they think they can go with McElroy. It won't be Tebow, though. He will be worse than Sanchez.

    x2.

    Tebow won't start. That's not his purpose. Not unless Mark gets hurt or plays like a teenage girl.

    Yes the first games are tough, but any game can be lost. So Sanchez can struggle at any point and still win, do you still put in tebow?

    Sanchez is a much better qb and if you are doubting that then you either dislike Mark or live for Tbo.

    Scenario:
    Playoffs 4th qtr with a minute remaining ball at our 30, and we are down 3+ points...
    Who do you think between tbo and mark can score 6 with that much time realistically...

    Only Bcuz hypotheticals are cool...

    Agreed. Just a bad record isn't going to sink Sanchez. A winning record could save him, though. I just don't see the Jets going to Tebow if Sanchez plays even to his average performance level and/or they at least remain in playoff contention until late in the season.

    interesting.....

    well the guy is a football player and can carry the ball. maybe there is a place for him as that hybrid FB/TE guy.

    having both sanchez and tebow on the field would even get belichek a bit anxious.

    u would need a separate guy as ur true backup QB then.

    Using history as a guide, we trade Tebow for a 4th round pick to anyone that will take him off our hands.

    Tebow is not just a football player, he is an amazing football player. Worth what the Jets gave up in that respect.

    I would have been scared shitless about the guy coming in with Schotty as OC, because that guy is a moron.

    But if you had asked me... "You're bringing in Tim Tebow as a situational player, like Brad Smith. Who do you want your OC to be?"

    I would tell you 100 times, Tony Sparano. Any other kind of situation, I'd tell you a different name.

    I wasn't high on Sparano until the Tebow thing happened. He is not a QB, but he could be the best thing to happen to this team in years.

    If tebow starts, that is the worst case scenario.

    Worst case scenario....

    Sanchez goes on to become Drew Brees - type QB for another team.
    Jets realize that TT can not be a permanent started and end up without having neither a starting QB nor sufficient picks to get one.

    If the oline sucks again this year and gets Mark sacked more than 2 times per game again then we'll be in the same situation as last year, but with faster receivers and more depth in TE. Hopefully that will be enough to overcome it, but it doesn't prevent Mark from getting hurt. I think the oline will be more solid, but we'll have to see. I still don't trust Hunter, but I do trust Slauson to rebound from his injuries and Ferguson to return to form. In Ducasse we trust!

    I can dig it. I'm not saying that it will work, but I think that this is the best shot for it to work . NY media jackals and all.

    And if it does work. Holy shit.

    You are living in a dream-world. No hypotheticals needed, real live NFL game action from last year.

    Scenario:
    Tight game.

    Sanchez throws a devastating pick six.

    Tebow drives his team 95 yards for the game-winning touchdown in the final minute.

    I think you will remember this real game very clearly.

    Your "real" scenario is a fantasy that won't ever play out unless Sanchez tears his rotator cuff throwing that devastating pick six.

    Tebow will be used to add other dimensions to the offense that are outside the bounds of a generic offensive gameplan. He'll be the new gadget guy so to speak. They won't stick him in the game in place of Sanchez unless Sanchez is single handedly killing the Jets. Killing the Jets so bad that they would've put in McElroy had Tebow not been on the roster.

    Tim Tebow doesn't get away with the terrible bullshit excuse for QB play that he did with Denver fans and media in NY, no matter the current lame-ass hype. That is a fact that you are not capable of understanding.

    My "real" scenario played itself out on an NFL field last season. It played itself out with Tebow having a much worse team behind him than Sanchez.
    In the NFL the QB gets all the glory and all the blame. Sanchez leash is getting shorter, if the Jets have a rough start with the tough schedule he is most likely toast, Rex aint gonna put up with another implosion around Sanchez, he is running out of equity himself from those playoff wins.
