Well, he finally will get a chance for a QB coach to work with him on his piss poor mechanics and footwork. He needs an Aaron Rodgers type of time to sit and develop.

Here are three ways that Tebow could fit with the Patriots.

1. Goal-line/short-yardage runner
One of the areas that Tebow excelled in with Denver was as a goal-line and short-yardage situational runner. The Patriots know that full well, as Tebow rushed for two touchdowns in a 2011 regular-season matchup against them when he was the Broncos' starter. The Patriots have Stevan Ridley as their workhorse running back, but Tebow has the build and strength after contact needed to earn tough yards.

2. Option attack
There have been a host of quarterbacks who have put the read-option back on the map in recent seasons, and Tebow has the athletic ability to do the same for the Patriots. He's not a burner with his speed, but his combination of size and agility makes him difficult to bring down. That was part of what made him successful in college at Florida. Of course, part of the read-option involves throwing, and while Tebow has struggled with accuracy, the Patriots will work to improve that to the point that he can be counted on to hurt a team with his arm.

3. Another position/special teams
Yes, Tebow has been a quarterback by trade and has previously insinuated that he has no interest in playing another position, but given the lack of recent interest in his services, it's possible he's willing at this point to do whatever it takes to sustain an NFL career. He stands at 6-foot-3 and close to 240 pounds, a frame big enough to at least give fullback or tight end a shot. He has experience handling the football and we've already touched upon his ability to gain yards in space. He's a bruising runner who is unafraid to initiate contact with defenders. The Jets briefly toyed with Tebow at positions other than quarterback but never appeared to give it a full effort, at least in game action. They did work him on the punt team, and the Patriots may see core special-teams value for Tebow as well.

Yeah. Uncle Rico must have missed Bill's call.

...“Anything we do is what we feel is in the best interest in the team,” Belichick told reporters. “Tim is a talented player that is smart and works hard. We’ll see how it goes.”...

The Pittsburgh Steelers defense still remembers what it’s like to lose to Tim Tebow. Three defenders told The Pittsburgh-Tribune Review that they think Tebow can still play in the NFL.

Tebow led the Broncos to a playoff win over the Steelers on January 8, 2012. Linebacker Larry Foote said he thought Tebow at least still deserved a shot at a job. From The Pittsburgh-Tribune Review:

“He won some games, had some success,” Foote said. “We know it first-hand. I think he should be somewhere at least competing for a job. I think he’s earned that.”

Defensive back Ike Taylor, who was burned by the Broncos passing game during the Steelers playoff loss, grudgingly admitted respect. From the report:

“Tim Tebow is real decent,” Taylor said. “But (his future) isn’t up to me. You gotta ask the owners and coaches and GMs. As far as being a competitor, he’s one of the best competitors I’ve seen.”

Tebow threw for 316 yards, two touchdowns and no interceptions against the Steelers in 2012. Pittsburgh lineman Brett Keisel agreed that Tebow could still play.

“He beat us. You have to give him credit for that,” Keisel said. “I think he’ll get another shot.”

The rumor was that we were going to sign him, so the Pats beat us to another great signing.....damn.

You know I like the guy. I think leadership is sorely lacking on our Dolphins. We haven't had a field general since Marino and Thomas. You can have all the talent in the world but if you don't have leadership, you're not going anywhere. Given that, I thought this deserved serious review....
