Then why would the Eagles even sign him in the first place? And the Patriots before that? He’s just not good enough. It happens . Deal with it.

Yeah, Tebow’s problem is that he has no thug street cred, doesn’t deflate his footballs, or give hollywood sodomites hugs and gives praise to God.

Not official yet. ESPN inside info hasn’t been accurate of late.

The perfect response for someone who has no counter argument

He should absolutely do that. He loves the game. Play it. I played college football as a 5’10” 175 pound “monster” back on defense 45 years ago at a Division II school. I loved every minute of it and have never regretted playing even though it was not at the level I wanted to be at.

of course, just now being reported by NFL.

Eagles will acquire Christian Ponder as third, reportedly.

Impossible. If Tebow was cut because he was a Christian then why would they pick up Ponder?

His passing has vastly improved. Watching him now compared to his first stint is totally different. If you don’t see that you never played much football.

LOL.

None so blind as those who will not see.

Seems to be a great guy, maybe even the kind you want dating your daughter, but not the guy you want running your offense in the NFL of 2015.

Chip Kelly gave Tebow every opportunity to show he was NFL ready, but it seems that while he may have improved his throwing motion, he has not improved at reading defenses and checking down through his options.

But all that is so hard to think about, so let’s just settle on persecution as the reason for his being cut.

Which subsequently improved considerably. Tebow’s didn’t.

You will understand why that really pisses me off.

Gee I dunno. He seems so well loved by the NFL for his personal views. They fit in so well with the homo set they are courting.

It’s a mystery.

Bradford has had more injuries than your average bear.
I do think Bradford has talent. I do not think his body supports this.

As far a Tebow:
He is a big strong QB.
Strong in the physical and more importantly, strong in GOD.

The NFL is a business.....

Please explain, then, the Trent Dilfer situation. He won a Super Bowl, and he got summarily released by the Ravens. What was that all about?

He’s now been cut by three NFL teams. Will people accept that he is not NFL material and it’s not some anti Christian conspiracy.

I'm a girl so no, I've never played it. But I've been a fan since I was five and like to think I know a thing or two about the game. And any improvement Tebow made in his throwing mechanics obviously weren't enough to overcome his other deficiencies.

If you have any facts instead of your fantasies, let’s see them?
