Anonymous Jets' players + LG Matt Slausen think Tim Tebow is "terrible"

[orangemonkey]

Meh. It was a collective team effort that made for an exciting end to last years season. Tebow was mostly a gimmick. Manning aside, I'm very happy Tebow is gone.

Asked about the Jets’ two backup quarterbacks, Tebow and Greg McElroy, Slauson said the Jets really only have one other quarterback.

“We have Greg . . . and we have an athlete,” Slauson said.

According to the Daily News story, there is no quarterback controversy with the Jets because there is no one in the Jets’ locker room who believes Tebow deserves to start.

“Hell, no!” one starter said. “You got to keep defenses honest. You just can’t line up in the Wildcat all the time. That won’t work.”

Said another teammate, “We can’t win running that sh–.”

After last season ended with the Jets sniping at each other, Jets coach Rex Ryan has said all year that fostering a closer locker room is one of his goals. But it sounds like most of his players aren’t on board with his highest-profile offseason acquisition.

Pretty much every one of those quotes could apply to the Orton/Tebow comparisons from last year. We all saw how that turned out.

[Fedaykin]

When Tebow puts his pride aside and moves to a position suited to his talents, he will be an all pro. Until then, his career is on life support.

I said it last year and I still believe it - When McGahee made his comments about the team being more than just Tebow (don't remember the exact words), he was showing that the players resented being the Denver Tebows. I think the Jets resent the same thing and the OP article is just that resentment surfacing.

And as for whether the run was fun last year, it wasn't for me. I enjoy watching good football and it was usually 55 minutes of bad football. I equate the finish to flipping heads 10 times in a row. We just happened to get VERY lucky at the ends of games. The Chicago game with Barber repeatedly messing up is a prime example. Tebow didn't do that, we just got lucky as hell.

[Atwater His Ass]

Feel sorry for anybody that couldn't enjoy the ride last season. There will never be another one like it, and hitting that pass in OT to put PIT away was epic.

[Kaylore]

Love or hate Tebow, at the end of the day the guy isn't substantively better that he was coming out of the draft. He still takes too long to read defenses, can't throw a timing pass and his short passes are inaccurate. I am grateful for the first playoff win in half a decade, but with as long and as hard as we's worked on everything, he should be WAYYYY better than he is. If he had any ability to play at the pro-level, for the time he's put in, it should have showed up by now.

And before any of you say "he never got a fair shot" that's a lie. He's gotten way more than all the other system QB's get.

[DENVERDUI55]

Love Tebow as a person couldn't stand him as our QB. As Kaylore said above then the offseason interview with DT and other players you could tell they didn't think the guy can play NFL qb. We rode an amazing streak and it was fun but you knew the end result was going to be a trainwreck.

But what about Tebow going 18/24 for 191 yards in 4th Q and OT? No you'll just gloss over that, because he sucks or prevent or whatever fits your preconceived conclusions. I'm sure you fault Tebow for hitting DT right in the gut in the endzone because, you know, DT dropped it. So does Tebow get any credit from you? Nope, nothing.

That's the thing I don't get, Tebow showed flashes, but people don't credit him for that. OTOH, people who love Tebow say he needs work. Therefore, I credit Tebow lovers as more level headed than the haters. I saw the same **** play from Orton with a bunch of losses instead of wins, but he had a ton of garbage time stats... I don't know about you, but I"ll take ugly wins over pretty losses any day (and even better this year, because pretty wins are the best!).

Orton was shipped out of town too. There was more luck and breaks going our way than TT making plays. As DT said yeah he made a few but let's be honest he couldn't beat a bad KC team when the D held them to 7 pts.

So Tebow never made any plays at all last year? I swear we won a playoff game with Tebow throwing the ball, did I go into a coma and miss that?

What about his teammates that play with him that keep calling him bad? Are the lovers more level headed then the guys that play the game?

I would say that the majority of his former teammates who has spoken publicly have given him credit *and* said he needed a lot of work on his passing... It's not an either/or.

See I don't care what you think, everyone has an opinion. It's just you repeat the same thing over and over. You aren't breaking new ground and I can assure you every single poster on this site understands your take on Tebow.

As for our relationship, sure, just stfu once in a while. We can be buddy ole pals once again.

[yerner]

Poor Tebow. dude brings this all on himself and pretends not to.

Hate to break it to you if there is a Tebow thread on the Mane I might post in it. If players are calling him bad I was just wondering what group they fall in.

As for us being buddies, I don't care a thing about you Thanks for letting me know what gets you hot and bothered though.

How many weeks in a row has a thread on the main page had the word Tebow in it

It's pretty simple. If he was playing great would these threads get buried and disappear?
