Quarterbacks coach Steve Clarkson does not work for an NFL team, but he has worked with many big names at the position. That includes New York Jets quarterback Tim Tebow, who worked with Clarkson for three days earlier this offseason and that makes Clarkson's strong opinion on the handling of Tebow noteworthy. In a March blog post titled "Sabotage of the Quarterback" and a conference call with reporters Wednesday, Clarkson took the Denver Broncos and Jets management to task. "I think he was purposefully sent to New York," Clarkson said via The Star-Ledger. "From the standpoint: you send him to a situation where you have instability with your coach -- you don't know if he's coming or going. You have a fragile-minded Mark Sanchez at quarterback. You stick Tim Tebow in there and you kill two birds with one stone. "So if you're Denver you've got to be thinking 'We send him to New York we basically kill an opponent and at the same time Tim Tebow doesn't come back to bite us in the proverbial butt, if you will, because he's not going to make it out of there.' ... "There is a lot of politics that go on with it. I think Timmy was just unfortunate to be in the wrong place at the wrong time." Source: NFL.com
Who cares? If he was any good he would play or improve wherever he went. He sucks so bad he wouldn't succeed anywhere. This is all just stupid and irrelevant.
Well obviously the private coach, paid by Tebow, will say that. Other than that, I'm thoroughly (sp?) enjoying this ongoing circus.
I don't know about Canada.. But I do believe at some point he will end up being an Hback or TE in this league. He is a great athlete. Just a crapty QB.
If I remember right the Broncos gave Tebow the choice between a couple of teams (Jags and Jets) and he chose Jets.
My only thought upon reading this headline was what Ward posted. I immediately heard the Beastie Boys in my head.
He's destined to become a preacher, he should just start on that now. If he had his own church show on Sundays he'd become even more famous and richer than he ever will playing in the NFL..
