Jets to cut Tebow...could there be a place a the Panthers's roster?


Recommended Posts

I wish The Golden Calf of Bristol good luck where he winds up, just don't want it to be here in Carolina.

I hope no one signs him, he goes into a deep depression and develops a meth habit and is arrested years from now giving handjobs in a public restroom for cash.

fug The Golden Calf of Bristol.

I'm not a fan of The Golden Calf of Bristol. But talent is talent. He's not a starting NFL QB but could he be used as an emergency back QB but then also used as a HB//FB/TE type of player but he would have to actually contribute in that role. Of course it's also up to The Golden Calf of Bristol to take on that type of role.

Then there is also the issue of the media attention and crazy evangelical Christians to deal with.

I'm not advotcating for this but the idea came to mind when I read the Jets are going to cut him and wanted to see what others thought. To be honest his time in the NFL may have come to an end.

You forgot to mention what talent he has.

Yeah, cause Heisman trophy winners never make it to the NFL..

Actually, Heisman winning quarterbacks generally don't.

Obviously, there are exceptions.

He did win the heisman trophy and dominated the SEC for 3 straight years. Don't act like he doesn't have any talent

As an athlete, he's extremely talented.

As a quarterback at the college level, quite talented.

As a quarterback at the pro level...not good enough.

Guys don't have winning records as a starter and win playoff games when they can't play. No matter how much the defense helped him or what his competition was, in the NFL if you can win games you must have some ability. He basically has one season under his belt as a starter. Most young QBs struggle the first year or two.

I can't imagine why the Jets never gave him a shot to play when they benched Sanchez. What damage could it have done? Bernie Kosar had bad form too but he got the job done.

You can't imagine why because you've constructed the idea in your head that the first paragraph of your post is true. When you realize it's bullshit then you can start to imagine why the Jets didn't give him a chance. He is not good enough to deserve a chance.

Why dont one of you guys post an animated gif of The Golden Calf of Bristol hitting the game winning pass in overtime vs. the Steelers. You can make anyone look awful if you pick out their worst plays and only show them.

 

yeah why don't you guys show what is easily the signature play of his career instead of an incomplete pass which is exactly what happened on 52% of his attempts.

 

i also find that people get too fixated on jimmy clausen's lack of arm strength.  you can make anyone look awful if you point out their flaws.

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
