Tebow: Perfect as a passer
By Rich Cimini

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- After four weeks of anticipation, Tim Tebow finally got a chance to throw a pass. And it was a 9-yard completion to tight end Dedrick Epps, who promptly fumbled it to the 49ers after getting drilled by Dashon Goldson. So if you're scoring at home, Tebow is 1-for-1 with a 10...

Rich Cimini is the perfect example of how low sports journalism has fallen. The only reason anyone clicks on this piece of work, is to get to the Comments area. I bet less than 5% who clicked on it, actually read this article.

If the Jets are only going to pass for 100-200yds, then you might as well start Tebow, and get 100-200yds rushing as well.

I was saying at week that he should just be made into a rb/hb put him in the backfield with sanchez he has the size of a lb so he can block has better burst then greene and you could even do direct snaps to him with sanchez next to him and he could run and pass or just chuck a bomb or other types of trick plays.

Why doesnt anybody see that he has no freaking receivers to throw the ball to! Horrible front office work. Tannbum is the worst. No fear! Load the box and man to man on the outside.

How is this Tebow's fault? He did everything right. You are a moron.

Great article! Tebow is a joke. He can't run. He can't throw. He can't read a defense fast enough to get out of his own way. But low and behold, as the ship sinks, another Tebow article. This is a sickening year which was totally compounded by ESPN's incompetency and misguided love affair with this fraud.

That being said, he will be starting for the Jets soon enough.

NO THEY SHOULD NOT USE TEBOW MORE AS FULLBACK!!! DID YOU SEE TEBOW KEEP STRETCHING HIS BACK AT SIDELINE AFTERWARDS? HE TWEAKED HIS BACK ON THOSE PLAYS AT FULLBACK. WHAT IS THE MATTER WITH YOU GUYS? HE IS A QUARTERBACK!! IT'S JUST SICK HOW FOOLS IN THE MEDIA KEEP TALKING ABOUT USING HIM HERE AND THERE AND EVERYWHERE FOR A DUMB TEAM THAT CAN'T SEEM TO DO ANYTHING TO SAVE THEIR LIVES!! LEAVE TEBOW ALONE. DON'T TRY TO RUIN HIS CAREER MORE THAN YOU GUYS HAVE ALREADY DONE!! WHAT HE NEEDS ARE SERIES OF SNAPS AT QB TO GET INTO A DAMN RHYTHM THAT YOU ALL ARE SO CONCERNED THAT SANCHEZ DOESN'T HAVE WITH TEBOW IN THE GAME. IT'S NOT SANCHEZ'S RHYTHM YOU HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT, IT'S TEBOW'S, FOR CRYING OUT LOUD!

dude get real. he has the body of a FB/LB/TE none of the great qbs have Arms the size of basketball like tebow does he has the worst throwing motion in the nfl. If he wants to help the Jets he should say Make me a Rb and give me the dam rock. That way the Jets can move up McElroy to back up and save a roster spot by having tebow at Rb and emergency 3 qb at best. Nuff Said.

It's not even necessarily about replacing Sanchez with Tebow, it's just a question of using Tebow when it would make sense within the offense. How about all those 3rd and 3's? Why not put him in then? Or when he's already on the field as a tailback, why not have him run a wheel route or a slant to see if he can get open instead of just using him as an extra blocker? I just don't get it, Rex. Why'd ya trade for him if you're not gonna use him?!

Cause Ryan and Sparano have no clue of offensive strategy, its obvious. The guy that beat both of them last year gets zero to minimal chance to come in and make things happen. Stupid coaching, the 49's were running with Kap, what the jets ought to be doing.

I agree it is time to get behind Tebow.

Tebow needs to come in and run the option and occasionally go up top. He throws a decent long pass. Btw, that's what SF did and it worked well. The long pass fell short, but Moss almost grabbed it. Hill would be a nice target for that play.
