Tebow to the Pats - Cigar Asylum Cigar Forum

The move reunites Tebow with Patriots offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels, who was the Broncos' head coach when Denver traded into the first round to draft the Heisman Trophy winner in 2010.

Patriots head coach Bill Belichick often has spoken with admiration for Tebow's versatility, intelligence and character. Belichick covets what he has described as tough, smart, versatile football players.

Let the Tebow hating begin. :-)

I'm glad the guy found a place to go, maybe there won't be too much drama for the Pats. I wonder if he'll be second or third string.

Glad to see he finally has a place to hang his helmet. Let's be honest, with Brady around, he's only getting "mop-up time" at QB.

Good he deserves it IMO!

Good guy. Hopefully he will play an H-back TE role and have a good career.

Hopefully Tebow Will Be Happy There. He's A Great Kid & Deserves A Realistic Chance.:-)
[Reply]

He will never make it out of training camp?
[Reply]

Probably the best place for him. Bill doesn't play that media game Rex Ryan does. He'll also destroy any reporter who tries to make a big deal out of anything. I don't see Tebow staying a QB. Some think it'll get buried in the depth chart, but I don't see them signing someone who could cause such a headache just as another QB. They're the Pats, who have a ton of extra cash to work with...

Good to see this. He deserves a chance.

Belicheck is probably the only coach crazy and good enough to make this work

Took 'til post #7 for the first hater to come out....Congrats, John! Go Tebow! Go Blackhawks!

:-)

The Blackhawks will probably sign him if the Pats don't work out :-)
[Reply]

Good for Tebow! I don't think he will end up a QB but Belichick is the perfect coach for him. Glad he is getting another chance for sure.

Amazes me how much hate this guy gets...

Not a Tebow fan for a couple of reasons.

I think he's way overrated. Good player. Not a great player. He should do well in NE.
I don't care for anyone who uses their celebrity to preach their personal religious and/or political beliefs. He's a football player. Period. He should talk football. Many Hollywood folks feel the need to speak about politics. They should all STFU about everything except their craft/profession.

Now that being said, it is refreshing to see a sports celebrity with character and integrity. A decent role model for young people. With all the thuggery, criminals, and gangsta BS in sports, I admire Tebow as a man because I believe he is someone who truly cares about others.
