Anyway

Tim must have had a change of heart, I've always heard he refused to play anything but QB. He won't be playing QB in NE. He is an athlete but I still do not see where he is big enough to take on a line backer, fast enough or strong enough to get separation as a TE. I think Tim's problem in the NFL is that he is so well rounded he doesn't actually excel at anything.
Good points all, I tend to agree and still remain a little skeptical of Tebow ... but ... if there's one team/coach in the league that could make it work, it would have to be New England. They have the time & the resources to find a way to use/develop his talents.

They don't need him at QB, but he could apprentice under Brady/Mallet and maybe develop into an NFL caliber quarterback. Belichick is creative, Tebow is young. It would take an organization like NE with a H/C like Belichick to finally convince Tebow that if he wants an NFL career, he's going to have to be a little more flexible on what position he plays.

Tebow is a "team-guy" and landing a roster spot on a perennial contender that doesn't need him to be the 'man' or trot him out there for ticket sales might just be the remedy for all his NFL woes.

I gotta' think if he wound up on any other team in the NFL it'd still be 'Tebow-mania', but with the Pats he just might have a legitimate shot at an NFL career ... albeit as a backup QB or at another position.

Stay tuned ...
