Sports radio and now the pregame shows are fixated on Tim Tebow and how he should or shouldn't be the Jets starting QB. I've said before, I don't understand the love or the hate surrounding this guy but the reality is he causes a hurricane of emotions.

That said, why in the world would any team add this guy to their roster? He's just good enough in spots to cause you to think he is the answer, but he'll never be good enough to win the big one. All he does is create problems due to the media circus that surrounds him.... which IMO isn't his fault.

New York, Ryan, and Sanchez all deserve each other. Adding Tebow in the mix is just a spoon to keep the sauce constantly simmering

I don't think Sanchez was ever going to be a "superstar" QB, but he could've been a step above the Flacco/Romo/Cassell-tier of QB's. Now that Rex has worked his 'magic', he'll be lucky to be in the league in another 3 years.
The only reasons to sign Tebow are 1: you want the media circus, and/or 2: you want your existing QB to fail. The problem with number two is that if it works, then you have to start looking for a new QB...because you know Tebow isn't going to be the answer.

Like Timmy said, Sanchez was never going to be a superstar, but he would have been in a better position to succeed had management not brought the circus to town.

Couldn't be happening to a better team though....somebody has to be the laughing stock of the NFL. The Queens apparently decided to take a year off from that role.

Picking a fight, eh? I wouldn't consider every QB that lost their last game a winner. I would consider QB's that find ways to win, "winners". It's not all on the QB, but you can't argue that TT was 8-5, and probably won 2-3 of those games last year when they shouldn't of.

3 is quite possibly tickets. The Jets have quite a bit of trouble selling tickets because they priced out their more traditionally blue collar fans when they opened up the new stadium...they're still having trouble. They have commercials all the time around here for tickets.
