I guess 35-3 ain't good enough to keep your job.

They would HAVE to play him.  If they didn't, they might as well just move to LA, because their fanbase (such as it is) will almost completely disappear.  Imagine the Titans fans' reaction if they had picked up Peyton and never played him.  Yeah, it would be kind of like that.

Heard today on ESPN pregame today that he played 8% of the offensive plays. Wonder what percent of the press he got?

The playoffs begin in six days, and yet I STILL expect to hear about Tebow all week.

@ESPN_Colin The man who traded away Tim Tebow is going to be the NFL's Executive of the Year. The one who traded for him just got fired.

A lot of the reason Tebow is being trashed in NY is for His beliefs. He's not a great NFL player,but He's a good Man and great example for Kids.

Oh yeah.  He's a good dude, no question about that.  But he's a terrible NFL qb.

So far, he has not been a good NFL QB.  But, under the right circumstances I think he could be a very good NFL QB.  I have seen some very average QBs do well depending on the offensive system.  I don't think he'll ever "light it up" like Manning, Brady, Brees, et al., but with a decent defense, I think he can do enough to win (i.e., avoid mistakes and guide the offense).

It would be interesting to see him get in the right system.
