But there are some that will contend that he didn't get the right opportunity and if he gets a chance he will win every Superbowl until he retires.....ok I exaggerated a little but he could sign a contract stating he (Tebow) would have to pay the team $100 million if he plays a single down at QB and fans and media would still ask the question.

Not signing him simply because of the media issues he brings isn't a good idea either.
I agree, we're not nearly the joke we could be if we had Tebow.

Quoted for Truth, lol!
There is no role, anywhere, for Tebow. Not enough talent to be an NFL QB, and average in every other respect. He's short and slow for a modern TE. Too light for ILB, way too small for OLB.
Fullback is about the ONLY position, but then again, you're now putting him into the offensive backfield, which is going to fire up the media circus -- and you just do not pay the kind of money his "name" demands for that position, or for an experiment.

Give him a one-year "show me" with a base of $1 million and a $5 million kicker if he takes less than 1% of the team's total offensive snaps at QB.
On second though...still not worth it.

Whatever happens, no one can take that playoff win against the Steelers away from him. 10-21, 315 yds, 2 TD / O Int - plus 50 yards rushing with another TD. He outplayed Roethlisberger that day and he crushed the Steeler Nation. Good times ...

Only if we cut our other TE's so that we don't have anything better, taller, or faster.

I've been fair about Tebow. I honestly feel like he kind of got screwed in New York. Sanchez was a terrible QB.

Everyone is tired about hearing about Tebow and doesn't want to talk about him, yet there are 53 posts (and will be many more) about him on a message board dedicated to a team he has never played for.
And people wonder why he leads SportsCenter.

I'm pretty sure I saw 10 posts about Tebow on PFT this morning and afternoon alone. That is not an exaggeration.
I don't get it either.

Because his career is kinda a microcosm of life in America.
The vast majority don't want the powers to be to keep doing this one thing over and over and throwing money away at something that *everybody* knows isn't going to work, yet, they continue to do it, and because a very small, uninformed, minority applauds it every time, they think it is something good. For inexplicable reasons, the media is constantly painting this thing as a positive, which really just proves that the media doesn't know a damned thing about anything. And the cycle just keeps repeating. Most people screaming "just let he thing die already", but the media and a few misguided people with money keep thinking that there's life to be found, yet.

If there was a way to sue BSPN concerning the relentless coverage I'd do it. He's not getting a job right now due in large part to the media circus that would follow him to his next team. And that's a shame.

People watch when Tebow is talked about, then complain about too much Tebow.
ESPN's job is to make money. People watching TV makes money. People watch Tebow coverage. Tebow = money.

J/C I just can't help but wonder if ,somewhere in Philly, Chip Kelley is looking at ESPN, rubbing his chin and going "Hmmmm..."  Tebow's probably not fast enough for his idea of offense, but he certainly knows the read-option stuff well.

If the Browns sign Tebow, Ill be ecstatic.
Tebow would be a nice Developmental Quarterback to have, and I think he could be a pretty good Quarterback If he improves that accuracy, which could be done with good Coaching.
I mean, hell, Chud Is a great Quarterback mentor, he made Derek Anderson look good, he also worked well with Cam Newton, who we all know Is a pretty good Quarterback. Tebow and Cam are actually pretty much the same players when It comes to Playing Style (Power Running, Deep Passing)
So If Chud worked with Cam, I BET you he could work with Tebow, and make him a better Quarterback then what he Is. And If we can sign Tebow to, well, lets say, a 3 Year 3 Million deal, then why not? 1 Mil of Cap Is nothing, compared to the Cap the Browns may have, which Is around 25M?
But truly, the point that I'm trying to make Is, 'WE NEED TO GET THIS GUY' !!!

Intoducing for The Cleveland Browns, Quarterback Deshawn "The Predator" Watson. He will also be the one to choose your next head coach.

If Tebow didn't have the media implications I would be happy to have him as our 3rd stringer. When you are down to a 3rd string QB you are only going to succeed with a gimmick offense anyways. It also helps I don't honestly believe a 4th-7th round"standard" qb can ever be groomed into an elite pro-style qb.

Look, If the Browns had a solid option at Quarterback, then I wouldn't mention signing Tebow.
But since we don't have a solid option at Quarterback, then why not? you do realize the Weeden Is considered a joke In the NFL right now do you?

Every QB on our roster is a better option than Tebow, and so is every TE.
Heck, other than Marecic, name a player on our roster that Tebow could seriously displace.

I realize you don't answer a question mark with yet another question mark. We addressed that issue with Campbell who is actually NFL QB material for the vertical system that Chud runs.
Bringing in yet another question mark at the QB position who is under contract for about the same money as Weeden and Campbell just makes no sense at this juncture IMO

I know I say I dont want Tebow but thats because of the circus and distraction he would bring. I dont think he is a bad football player at all. He is a gamer. He might not look pretty while playing but last time I checked he took Denver as far into the playoffs as Peyton Manning did he not? (NO, I am not saying he is as good as Peyten so don't read into that.)

I'll give Tebow credit he took advantage of High School level mistakes. Whether it was a sell-out blitz that gets picked up and allows him to sneak out the back end for a big gain on the ground, or a safety blitz that leaves his receivers in isolation against slower corners, allowing him to float passes to them when they're wide open. I mean yeah, any QB could do that but ALL HE DOES IS WIN GAMES!
