New York Jets acquire Tebow

The New York Jets did what they have done best of late, try to create buzz.  The Jets acquired Tim Tebow who had a great stretch run in last season leading the Broncos to the playoffs.  Tebow then upset the Steelers in the first round of the playoffs before being ousted by the Patriots.  Tebow mostly known for his "Tebowmania", is ready to bring his talents to the east coast. 

Tebow said that he was looking forward to playing for the Jets and that he was thankful they have faith in him as a player.  Tebow who was acquired to run the "Wildcat" offense in New York that Offensive Coordinator Tony Sparano ran in Miami. 

What the Jets don't seem to see, (or maybe they do), is the idea that this could cause even more craze than needed.  Many sports broadcasters feel that this is a mess waiting to happen.  Many analysts and fans believe that this could just be a move for media buzz and money.

But I guess we will see what happens when Sanchez throws his first interception in the pre-season.  The crowd will chant for Tebow.  Will the media, the hype, and the fans be able to force Sanchez out of town and Tebow into the spotlight as it did to Kyle Orton and the Broncos.  Only time will tell.

  1. I am so excited to see what happens between Sanchez and Tebow. The Jets has a rough past season, so maybe change is a good thing for them.

  2. Being a New York Jets fan myself, I have to have hope in their decision, even though the team is getting much criticism over Tebow's addition. Yes it will cause extra attention for the team, but I am hopeful that Sanchez and Tebow will work well together. I guess we have to wait and see.
