BlackDynamite Posted November 15, 2012 Author Share Posted November 15, 2012 Woody forced him! I'm sure it was endorsed by Woody, for the finances of it. But I don't think he commanded them to bring him in. Woody is not Jerry Jones.... BD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smashmouth Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 The entire concept of using Tebow as a wildcat QB is ridiculous. As a matter of fact Tebow may be the worst person to run the wildcat in its short history. For Tannenbaun to still push this issue just shows his general lack of football knowledge Why ? Because hes slow and the Wild cat is generally run by fast/quick players ( WR's RB's) who can get to the outside quickly and simply out run a defense. The only reason why he was able to run the ball effectively in Denver was because he was the full time QB. Its obvious the Jets do not want Tebow throwing down field because most of the time he actully runs the wildcat he does not stay back in the pocket long enough to even get to his first read, He usually just takes off running usually directly behind center almost always between the tackles. I dont even think the WR's run patterns I think they right into blocking mode making it even more difficult and ridiculous. I do not think Tebow is comfortable running the wildcat either. As a full time QB when you drop back to pass you usually have a good portion of the defense cleared out and if Tebow breaks one tackle or sees a huge opening its much easier to run the ball than when the entire defense is expecting it.

LionelRichie Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 Who gives a **** about the Tebow trade and the 4th rd pick. I'd like to hear Tannenbaum defend giving a below average QB who has shown no improvement during his tenure, an elite QB contract.

Stonehands Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 To me acquiring Tebow is one of the lower sins of this general manager. Our overall roster sucks. How come we have never been able to pair Dustin Keller with an acceptable second tight end? How come we went into a season with Shonn Greene and Billal Powell as our two primary backs? How do we have no receivers behind Santonio Holmes? Why have we not added a single dominant pass rusher since John Abraham? Why did we go so long with a turnstile at right tackle? Why do we have to go free agency to add two decent safeties after being unable to draft and develop anyone? Tannenbaum has overseen an awful process and needs to go.

The Tebow trade made no football sense then and it doesn't now. Money wasted on a position best used elsewhere to help the team like RT and WR. That said, the Sanchez extension was a far worse mistake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BurnleyJet Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 Its not the 4th Rounder for Tebow, it's the resigning Mark F**cking Sanchez, that's the problem, we could have cut his A** for Free next year but nooooooooooooooooooooooooo. He's pulled some bad Drafts, and bad Trades, and fritted picks away, but the Resigning of Mark F**cking Sanchez as got to be one of the Top Five all time Jets gaffs and we've seen a lot.

Yeah, the Sanchez extension is the greatest crime, but it makes no sense to follow that up by trading for Tebow. By doing the extension you're essentially going all-in on him for the next 2 years. Use the other cap money to maximize that investment. Instead they trade for a gimmick and distraction with his own fanbase. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bitonti Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 i don't see what the problem is with the Tebow trade. 1st off what would they have gotten with that 4th rounder, who knows? it wouldn't have been Russell Wilson. in general it made Mark work harder as evidenced by his coming in to camp noticeably bulkier. I don't buy that Mark is worse because Tebow is here. Mark is getting paid like friggin A-rod he has to perform regardless of distractions. 10 million dollars a year means distractions aren't an excuse. I don't think that the team would be better with Matt Simms and Greg McElroy backing up Mark instead of Tim and greg. I don't even buy that the pulling of mark on and off the field is any sort of problem. the problem is very simple Mark isn't playing well. that might be the case no matter who the backup is. We are obsessing about Tebow as if he could save the season. But let's be honest the Jets could very well be 3-6 without Tebow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
