As a lifelong Eagles fan + University of Florida alumni + atheist, I may have to rethink my positions on Jesus.
 
If they're going try making him the football equivalent of a utility infielder that can fill in at multiple positions (tight end, fullback, tailback, QB) I think it's a great idea. If he's just been brought in to compete for a QB spot, it's a waste of time. He's a great athlete, but his throwing motion is not going to cut it in the NFL.
 
Browns should have snagged tebow. Been saying it for years. Maybe then the man upstairs would hear the tears of years and years of disappointment, and do the smart thing and ship the browns back out of Cleveland.
 
Worst qb in the history of the NFL. Good athlete though

Nope.

Leaf had a successful college career at Washington State University, where he was a finalist for the Heisman Trophy after his junior year. He was selected as the second overall pick in the 1998 NFL Draft, but his career was short and interrupted by poor play, bad behavior, and injuries. An episode of NFL Top 10 ranked him as the No. 1 "draft bust" in NFL history.

Crazy that he was in my fantasy draft for the Eagles when I played Madden 25. It's a sign o_o. We may finally get the Super Bowl.
 
Tebow had better be ready to play another position now. Although with Sam Bradford being the QB...Tebow should get a legit shot by the 2nd preseason game.
 
Leaf spent most of the time on the golf course and played better than tebow.

Oh, don't get me wrong. Leaf was marginally better than Tebow in his small sample size.

But Tebow has a playoff win, is still respected somewhat around the league, and wasn't labeled the greatest bust in NFL history.

That means something.
 
Eh when you look at all of the 2nd and 3rd string backups I'm surprised it's taken this long. Never thought he was a starter, but I also never understood how a guy can go from started to out of the league with so many shit tier 2nd and 3rd string backups.
