It would be HILARIOUS, though, if the Broncos do not make the post season or do not improve on their 8 wins from last year. The team straight up sucked with the pocket passer in as QB last year prior to Tebow... not that I'd ever compare Manning and Kyle Orton. The Broncos are made for the running game though.

Yeah, but we're not talking about Eli here, what do you do with Peyton.

If the new owner isn't an idiot, the Jaguars will go after Tebow HARD! Not that it guarantees making them a better team, but it guarantees fans in the seats, and people around here actually caring about this franchise.

lol

wasnt last year his rookie season? and he was a top 10 pick i believe? It would be difficult to give up on someone that quickly. Though Tebow would bring that dough to Jax... half the stadium would be orange and blue.

That's the whole point. I'm not saying Tebow is definitely better than Gabbert, but it really doesn't matter.

I can tell you first hand how difficult it has been for the Jaguars to sell tickets here. Almost every home game for at least the last 2 years has been close to blacked out.

It's not about Gabbert, it's about making this franchise important, possibly for the 1st time ever. That's what bringing Tebow here would do, for better or worse (on the field).

Seth NFL radio had on a TU writer on this morning, and on local sports talk they took a poll and most surprisingly to me too, did not want them to get Tebow. Having just signed signed Henne I just do not see it happening bro. We both know from living here it's a college town. Until they put a winning product on the field, and even if they win that fact may not change.

I agree with you 100%. Personally I'd love Tebow to come to Jax. He's one of, if not #1, my favorite players in football and I could care less about gabbert. Jax would be stupid to not go for it.. I mean i'm sure the owner actually wants to make money.

But would the domino's keep falling and then Gabbert gets traded? Maybe he can go to Miami. I know he sucked last year, but he was considered a project even as a 1st round pick. I'm sure one team out there wouldnt mind him on their team.. even just to compete for the starting spot.

I dont think that people will continue to support the team with Tebow unless they win. Perhaps the 1st half of the season but if they are 3-9 and Tebow looks Tebowish with no magical endings it is hard to imagine people will continue to show up.
