American dollars & the backup QB?

Completely disagree. Name one "Terrell Owens" on our team. Our guys are the least mouthy, least rap-sheeted, most community oriented guys in sports. Our guys are good guys. Tebow fits.

...exactly. Why not have a backup QB who brings you positive press?

nother good point. I'd like to get the Bounty thing forgotten. Who better than a friend of Jesus to cleanse our image?

Slam Bam. Coming to NOLA would be like getting in the Witness Protection Program. He just wouldnt be that big of a deal here. And zero people, not even Skip Bayless would expect him to upend Brees. Brees would feel zero threat. You gotta realize, a big part of the circus in NY was that Sanchez is weak enough that Tebow was a threat to start.

And He's WON. Somehow, he finds a way
to win.
Look, if Brees goes down, we're shooting craps anyway. Why not have a b/u QB who functions as both a utility player & a PR boost? We're the one city that benefits from Media attention. Isnt this the reason you were ok with the stupid azz London Game? Well there's the exposure you want.
