In pre season, 2nd and third stringers make plays to make it hard for a team to cut them.

Shocked.
@SI_PeterKing: Conveniently, I will have Chip Kelly and Tim Tebow sections in MMQB tomorrow.
**** this thread.
Hard to judge Tebow performance w/ so many poor shotgun snaps, quick protection breakdowns. But not bad for 1st action in 2 years.

****, why can we have Skip Clueless free site? Just wish that asshole would drop the n word just once so he could join his buddy Cowherd.
**** this thread.
This.
Can this abomination be locked and sent to hell?
we'd lock your threads, but no one reads them anyway
Just watched the highlights on NFL.com.
It's hard to believe how much Sanchez has regressed. Not that he was great to begin with, but still...
Matt Barkley may have the best game of their QBs that played, and he was only marginally better than Sanchez.
Tebow...is still Tebow. Always has been, always will be.
Chipper better hope Bradford will be his savior.
Although the score looks lopsided, it was much more a matter of Indy's defense, starters and immediate depth, being putrid than it was outstanding QB play.
I watched the first 2 posessions of HOU v SF the other day, just for kicks. It did not disappoint. SF was flailing. They made Hoyer look great at QB!

Yep Tebow is still Tebow and I still shake my head at the coverage of the guy. He looks like a guy throwing a hand grenade than a football and somehow people still think he is the second coming of Unitas, Montana, and Favre all rolled in to one.
Name one other than Skippy who thinks that...
The delusional Tebow fans.
Tebow seems to be extremely dedicated. I would hope he used much of that dedication to revamp his throwing mechanics.
I take it the results are in and his mechanics still suck?
The guy works with so and so who is supposed to be a QB guru and works with another guru and STILL his mechanics stink? Why can't the dellusional Tebow fans get it that he stinks?
people of faith have a hard time disbelieving their anointed heroes? that's all I got for ANYONE that still believes Tebow is an NFL QB.
Holy Helen Keller!!! Tebow's career completion percentage is 47% in 35 games. That's not even good enough to be called awful.
As I was looking up Timmy Turnover's stats I vaguely remembered a guy from the 70's that was widely considered the worst QB to start multiple seasons. I knew he was a Bills QB because I remembered OJ Simpson setting an NFL record single game rushing record of 270 yards on Thanksgiving in Detroit and the Bills still got curb stomped because their QB threw for 10 yards. I think I remember the announcers making fun of him by the 3rd quarter.
Gary Marangi. So there you go. Timmy is so bad he can spark a memory of the worst QB play you've ever seen. Even if it happened 40 years ago.
Tebow is nothing special to be sure, and yet some of the guys I've seen out there playing in the NFL like Ryan Lindley, I honestly think Tebow might be better than some of those really awful guys.
That said, I think most GMs weigh Tebow's ability to be say a 2nd or 3rd stringer against the crazy cult following he has and decide that his ability isn't worth the hassle from the cult followers.
From an ability standpoint, if Brian Brohm and Spergon Wynn could play in the NFL for a couple of years, then Tebow can as well as he at least had something to fall back on in pure running skills as well as throwing an okay deep ball. He was every bit as bad as Brohm or Wynn at the short to intermediate stuff though and maybe worse.
Chilli,
Coincidence you mentioned that Bills QB as last week I ordered the top 100 players NFL films video and I just saw the Simpson piece (he came in at #40) and it mentioned that game. The QB was something like 4/17.

Except he can't. The fact that it is even a discussion is a prime example of mass delusion in full swing.
