Probably the most balanced thing I've read on this. The circus will be gone. The Patriots are about football. Period.

I hope they give him the chance to continually drive that ball right down the Jets’ throat.

This is why I said the Saints or the Patriots were the best shots he had: one would ignore the circus while no one would notice the circus around the other.

And with Tebow on the bench behind Brady, it’ll be his perfect opportunity to get better.

The thing about Tebow is that, despite the fact he's not a lights-out quarterback, his leadership skill is way off the chart. ESPN (maybe?) miked him during a Bears game a while back . . . and you can see it.

Those of you greybeards out there who've played Squad Leader--he's a 10/+3.

Robert Kraft, the owner of the Patriots, is a liberal and has donated to Obama. This is good opportunity for Tim Tebow to witness to Kraft. Perhaps Tebow’s Christianity will serve as an example for Kraft and he’ll renounce his leftism?

The Circus will always be there. But Belichick won't put up with it the way Ryan did.

Obviously, Tebow is now with an adult organization, unlike Rex Ryan's Jets.

Tebow never really got a chance but then I’m not a really big footbal fan. I know he was absolutely phenomenal in college. I tend to think he is persecuted for his faith which shows, like in every other institution in American society, that Leftists are in control.

Living in Pittsburgh (such as that may be) I am a citizen of Steelers Nation. I hope the Steelers play the Patriots in the super bowl and after Brady gets knocked out the Patriots come from behind to win by three TDs.

As a lifelong Jets fan ... I hate the Pats with a passion ... but ...

I agree :-( ... I would love to see that too.

Yes. Belichick is the better coach and will make better use of Tebow’s abilities

That might be the worst career advice I've ever seen in my life.

Kraft is Jewish, and for Tebow to try to evangelize him when he's the guy signing his paychecks would be just about one of the dumbest things he could possibly try to do.

I can’t see the Pats picking up Tebow as a QB. The entire Pats passing system is based on short to medium timing routes which demand an accurate QB with a quick release who can made quick reads. This is not Tebow’s strong suit.

Unless the Pats trade him, Tebow will have to outplay strong-arm Ryan Mallet for 2nd string QB.

I heard he's going to be a tight end, not a quarterback.

Agreed. Tebow a) has the proper level of respect a Christian should have for the Chosen People and b) has too much class to disrespect his boss in that manner.
