Itll be good to have a man of God back in the league. Place needs men of character. 

jfc most of the league is devoutly religious, they just don't plaster it on their faces with eye paint or kneel whenever a camera is around

Something the bumbling idiot should have done years ago when he found out he could not play QB in the NFL.

Instead he stuck by QB where he sucked, went to baseball, sucked again, and now he wants to be a TE. 

Meyer probably promised him he could throw 1 pass every 3 games.

You kind of sound jealous that he could out muscle you one minute and take your girl home to his mansion if he wanted her the next.

He’s white, loves Jesus, and can’t throw.

Best I got?

You are probably trying to be funny but I personally believe you are more right than you may realize.

FTFY

I think only the most cynical actually hate The Golden Calf of Bristol himself. For all the other "haters," it's the narrative, not the man. 

He comes across a little pretentious about his faith. But, I've never heard a negative sorry about the man. And, you can be sure if he had skeletons in his closet, someone would've dug them up by now. He seems, by all accounts, to be a genuinely good person.

That said, when there were years long storylines debating if he was a better QB than Cam, you can't blame people for being annoyed by the fact that it was a question at all.

And him signing this contract, 7 years out of football, learning an entirely new position at 34 years old, only proves the point. 

Football Jesus.

If someone applied for a job with you, and since graduating college, his resume looks like this...

- Fired 4x in 4yrs in chosen career.

- Career change #1, gifted executive level job with no experience, earned no achievements or awards, contract not renewed. 

- Career change #2, gifted executive internship with almost no experience, never even left the mail room. 

... are you hiring him to try another field he has no experience in over people who have been training in this field for a decade?

Marty Hurney signed a failed basketball guy to play TE for him this off-season because he liked the look of him with his shirt off.

Jimmy Graham had 13 catches in College. Antonio Gates had 0.

What I'm saying is the NFL is not like the real world. It's all about projection and culture fit.

This is nothing more than what Rhule did with Whitehead. Meyer is bringing in one of his guys to install his culture in the locker room - The Golden Calf of Bristol obvs still wants to play professional sports so it works for him too.

He'll survive through TC. If he's terrible he won't make the final roster.

If anything he's good for the league because people either love him or hate him.  People tune in for polarizing figures good or bad.

That said, I'd be surprised if he made the team.  You're really gonna use one of the 53 roster spots to have him as a TE?

All those guys were at their peak athletic potential, not washed up 30 somethings. And do we really need to compare the athleticism required for basketball vs baseball? 

And Whitehead might've been signed for mentorship, but at least he had played the position before. Not only that, the defense looked like they had bought in to the culture a whole lot more once the crony lost his job.

And ESPN will get 4 months of stories, a reality web series and probably a 30 for 30 to milk out of it. Definitely an ESPY!

So glad sports media has fractured and diversified to the point they are almost irrelevant.

Here we go again. What part of "its a joke" dont you get. I think Tebows a phony, but the fact that you are so rustled by it is hilarious.

He won two National Championships playing as a QB in a Spread Option offence. He's plenty athletic. 

The defence got better the more they got accustomed to a new system. Shocking that (!)
