    Tebow to sign with Philly....

    Looks like Tebow is signing with Philly tomorrow. Good for him and mad respect for Philly for giving him a shot. He'll be a hell of a backup in that system.

    That said, I'm going to miss him on SEC Nation. He and Tess were the only two that made the program watchable. Wonder what Big 7 athlete will replace him? You know they won't get someone from one of the non-Big 7 schools. Hopefully the new guy won't be as bad as Spears, although it would be pretty hard to be worse.
    It's the roller coaster of hope that this program keeps us on that makes it hell being a State fan. - CadaverDawg, 10/15/22

    Yep. I think the Tebow Media Circus, which he's done nothing to encourage other than by trying to play football, is the big reason no NFL team has given him a chance the last two seasons. You can't tell me Jacksonville, Oakland, etc. couldn't have used a QB with a playoff win on his resume.

    So is Bradford the starter right now? If so, gotta figure tebow will see the field since Bradford is made of glass

    One would assume, 7. But I think Tebow may actually be the best fit for Kelly's system.

    No one hates Tebow for being a Christian. They dislike him for the disproportional amount of media attention he gets compared to his NFL skill level. Get over your persecution complex.

    That said, if there is any place in the NFL he can make it, it is Philly under Chip Kelly's system.

    Why would you dislike him for something he doesn't even control?

    I hope Tebow is the reason they win the Super Bowl this year and he rides off into the sunset with John Elway's wife or daughters if he has any. All of his daughters.

    Eagles vs Broncos super bowl? That would be awesome if tebow is the starter. I don't see either making it though

    I don't dislike Tebow at all, but at the end of the day he is a 50% or worse passer. I'm judging him against NFL QB's.

    It's interesting to me how much attention Tebow gets when you have guys like Kaepernick, RGIII, Cam Newton, and etc. in the league. And what about all of those option QB's at Nebraska in the 90's that were really good runners but not all that great at passing? Why weren't they getting the same treatment that Tebow is getting now?

    The Libs aren't going to like this at all. This could get ugly pretty quick.

    Tebow was a starting NFL QB for one year, not even a whole year, and he led his team on a ridiculous tear that culminated in a playoff win. Those are things that absolutely happened so he is a little more than just some ho-hum player that's never accomplished anything.

    And yes I do realize he's not that great of a passer...which made his ability to win even that much more remarkable and speaks to many other things he does do well.

    And there is absolutely zero doubt that people love to hate on Tebow and overly criticize his game because of his out spoken religious beliefs...and he has a somewhat cult following for much the same reason.

    Tebow is polarizing. He's the media's wet dream. He has modeling good looks and is pristine clean off the field. He's a virgin still and he's probably the most successful hardcore religious athlete of all-time. He does missionary work and public speaking in prisons. He does countless acts of humanitarian work. He's too perfect. That's why people hate him. Nobody can be that perfect. He is though. It's not an act. Tebow is the perfect person to take on this struggle. It points out failures in our society and he is making all of us better by simply being himself and going after his lifelong dream. Nobody has had to endure more doubters and critics telling him to quit than Tebow. He hasn't complained once. Anyone else would of quit.

    So it'll be Bradford, Sanchez, Tebow, and Mark Barkley as the QBs on the roster. Bradford is the obvious number 1 but it'll be interesting to see the backup battle.
    I honestly think Tebow fits Kelly's offense well, and I hope he can prove the doubters wrong. I read somewhere that he's been working on his throwing mechanics and he is much improved. We shall see.

    So it's Tebow vs Barkley for final spot. Tebow should win that battle.

    Pretty sure Sanchez is gone. He was a free agent after the season. Tebow is immediately #2.

    Yawn. Tim Tebow has 42-26 approval among "very liberal" people and 43-14 among "somewhat liberal" people. Also 41-19 among Obama voters and 44-17 among self-identified Democrats. (citation). I'm certainly in the plurality.

    But I guess it's more fun to make up a persecution complex, isn't it?

    No, Philly signed Sanchez to a 2 year deal.
