I agree, JAX seems like the most likely destination for him, since he has the hometown thing going for him and they desperately need to fill some seats in the stadium.

Also, Gabbert wasn't that impressive in his rookie season, and he looked really uncomfortable at times - almost like he was afraid.

But they'd have to change things on the offensive side quite a lot in order for Tebow to have any chance of being successful, and I'm not so sure that Mularkey - being a new HC - wants to put all his chips on Tebow.

This move would have very little to do with Tebow's success and everything to do with ticket sales. Jacksonville dreams of being able to play in front of someone other than their own families and Tebowmania would sure help out in that department.... for a while. If they do bring him in, they'd better buff up their defense quite a bit. A strong defense in a very weak division was what really got Denver to the playoffs last year.

On our side of the field, does that kid have any hands? He and Jimmy on each end of the line playin' catch with Drew could give defensive coordinators nightmares.

Gabbert had two weeks of practice to prepare for the NFL. He had no weapons other than a RB that can't do it all on his own. He had no protection. I would be gun shy to if I were him.

Andy Dalton walked into a perfect situation. He has a decent line, an awesome WR, an awesome TE, and a decent running game in Benson.

IDK ..... everything I'm seeing says 'No', but you did call Manning to the Broncos, so I'm putting my money on Tebow winding up in J'Ville,
