33 year old Tebow is trying to make a comeback to the NFL as a TE. Should be interesting.

Yes they did but he didn't understand why.Threedee":1lnenazj said:hawks85":1lnenazj said:33 year old Tebow is trying to make a comeback to the NFL as a TE. Should be interesting.
Didn't everyone tell him to switch over to TE about a decade ago?

Can you name another QB that was treated like that? Nah, thats just pure hate...plain and simple.
If they did that to an African American QB, it would be called racist.
If he earns that TE spot, he earns it. May the best man win!

You mentioned “division” recently in another thread.
Then you comment here suggesting “racist”/racism and “hate”.
Do you have an agenda?

He threw a total of 8 passes for 39 yards that season as the backup QB for the Jets. I think you'll have a hard time finding anybody to agree that he was having a successful season and was pulled because of hate.
Maybe look at the larger sample size of his previous 2 seasons where he maxed out at a 50% completion rate. Or understand that there's a lot more that goes into evaluating a QB play than completion percentage.
Listen I get that whole debate but you’re way off on this one. Tebow was just not that good of a NFL QB. I really liked him and wanted him to succeed. But he just wasn’t that good. He won Denver some games and who knows what he could have done with a team with a great defense and great running game. But being a great QB isn’t one of them.Spohawks":2pi0h1tx said:He was brought in and completed 75% of his passes for the Jets, and then the Jets pulled him...WHAT????

Are you concerned about his passing yards? Its the coach who dials up the play.
Be real and answer this question.
You are being interviewed for a NFL Head Coach position and the GM just wants to know if you know the basics...
GM: You got a QB thats completing 75% of his passes and has not thrown an interception or given up a fumble...do you keep him in there or do you pull him?
You:....

Me: Pull him, because anyone with eyes can see that the dude can't hit the broadside of a damn barn downfield, and he has a ridiculously bad throwing motion that takes like a full second to complete.
Also, immediately fire anyone on staff who seriously suggests the completion percentage within a sample size of 8 passes obligates us to leave Tebow in, despite his sub-50% career completion percentage - which makes perfect sense considering his unbelievable lack of accuracy and poise as a quarterback.

There is over 4400 uses of the word racist in .Net history...and you picked me of having an agenda, but let the others go. Attack the post not the poster.

GM: We think he has talent but he needed some fine tuning...so we coached him up and we were right. He went from 50% to 75%. What is the use of coaching up a player to the point of kicking out All-Pro level stats and then bench him??? Sorry Coach 787, you are not a fit for our team.

So maybe the Seahawks shouldn't have "pulled" Geno Smith last season? The guy was completing 80% of his passes with no interceptions or fumbles. Far better than that Russell Wilson guy that they kept rolling out there.

Come correct with the stats, then we can talk...Geno had a fumble against the Jets.
