It was an interesting pre-season but I knew that guy wasn't going to start the season in a Philadelphia Eagles Jersey. Who wants him next? Maybe someone has a PeeWee Football team they could use a new QB?

(33,688 posts)First, he brings a press-circus atmosphere along with him. And that is something the average NFL coach finds about as welcome as a huge flock of rabid bats dive-bombing the practice field.
Secondly, 'as Matt Taibbi, of Rolling Stone, put it, Tim Tebow trying to throw a forward pass is like a moose trying to fuck a washing machine.)' Source: http://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2012/04/02/backup

(95,337 posts)Bradford also appeared in a short film of testimonials from celebrity videos called I Am Second, sharing his faith about Jesus Christ and winning the Heisman Trophy.[84]
In 2009, Oklahoma City Mayor Mick Cornett declared January 13 as "Sam Bradford Day" in Oklahoma City.[85]
Sam Bradford, current Washington Redskins quarterback Colt McCoy and former Philadelphia Eagles teammate Tim Tebow wrote a book together about their college experiences and faith leading up to the NFL draft. Six years later Bradford and Tebow both play in Philadelphia while McCoy plays in the same NFC East division down in Washington.
Sam Bradford IS our starting QB for the Philadelphia Eagles. So it seems his a Christian too. However until I read his Wiki page I had no clue about the fact that Bradford was a bigtime Christian. Why? Because first, he doesn't make a big deal about it but instead he just seems like he gets out there and does his job and second, he actually does seem like he has the skillsets to be an NFL Quarterback.

(35,438 posts)If he really wanted to be in the NFL, he could switch positions to a TE or a FB, and he would be on a team today. Hundreds of college players have done this. He's just pig headed.

(95,337 posts)That's common sense and something that has left the room ages ago with Saint Tebow. He says Jesus will make him an NFL QB stuperstar and that's that.
