you guys, "Tim Tebow, Patriots starting QB" is on the verge of happening

oh I see you've already mentioned this in the offseason thread

Mike Reiss ‏@MikeReiss 21m
Not sure if my ears are deceiving me, but thought I just heard a "Tebow, Tebow, Tebow" chant here at Ford Field.

Mike Reiss ‏@MikeReiss 9m
Section of crowd chants, "We want Tebow!" Now boos when Ryan Mallett comes back into the game.

[Rolling Stone] also asserts that Patriots coach Bill Belichick had become so infuriated with Hernandez missing practices and demonstrating other thuggish behavior that he “was one misstep from being cut.”

that's one hell of a "misstep", murdering someone for talking about how you murdered someone else

Ras-I Dowling released. i think we are ok to conclude now that that draft pick was as terrible as everyone said it was at the time

Roberto Spiralli, Wednesday, 28 August 2013 23:08 (eleven years ago) link

As Ross Tucker mentioned today, the Patriots have a horrible record when it comes to drafting CBs and WRs.

i think bill just drafts cbs who can tackle and wrs who can run block

what the hell is this sentence in the RS hernandez article

But Beli-chick, the winner of three Super Bowl titles and grand wizard of the greatest show on turf, had decided long before he got to New England that such niceties were beneath him.

all the way thru the article i was thinking wow, this is chock full of bullshit. then i saw yday ppl were saying this was the kind of low-grade fare typical of the borges guy, who i guess is on the globe but i have never even heard of him

Roberto Spiralli, Thursday, 29 August 2013 14:57 (eleven years ago) link

yeah 'he'd drive away from the games smoking 3 or 4 blunts', ok uh

johnny crunch, Thursday, 29 August 2013 14:59 (eleven years ago) link

Also, Mike Martz would probably be surprised to learn that Belichick was secretly coaching the Rams way back when.

oh fuck they got ron borges to write it??

call all destroyer, Thursday, 29 August 2013 15:32 (eleven years ago) link

ron borges got run out of the boston globe for plagiarism and is well-known for having a grudge against belichick that defies all logic and reason. even by sportwriter standards he's an incredibly shitty person.

call all destroyer, Thursday, 29 August 2013 15:36 (eleven years ago) link

good to know. i am glad to have avoided him thus far

hold on i believe this!

J0rdan S., Thursday, 29 August 2013 15:46 (eleven years ago) link

rs--you'll appreciate that the rumored origin of borges's insanity is that when he was a beat writer in the late 90s/early 00s his big source in the pats locker room was drew bledsoe. when drew got benched he never got over it.

this is much more irresponsible of rolling stone than the glammy marathon bomber cover.

fwiw i think borges was more a glorified researcher for the piece its credited as BY PAUL SOLOTAROFF WITH RON BORGES

lag∞n, Thursday, 29 August 2013 19:25 (eleven years ago) link

solotaroff came out 2day in some radio interview saying he thinks hernandez will be back on an nfl team in ~4 yrs

johnny crunch, Thursday, 29 August 2013 19:31 (eleven years ago) link

that's cool that you can be on an NFL team while in jail

looks like tebow might have done just enough to leapfrog brady on the depth chart tonight

Roberto Spiralli, Friday, 30 August 2013 03:30 (eleven years ago) link

2 tds, 1 int, 4 sacks - with tebow you always know what you're getting.

call all destroyer, Friday, 30 August 2013 13:33 (eleven years ago) link

That RS article is fantastic / awful, and this piece goes a way in explaining which parts were which: http://www.bostonsportsmedia.com/2013/08/plagiarist-ruins-perfectly-good-rolling-stone-feature

And is "Beli-chick" a typo or just weird toothless dig that Borges employs when he's talking about Belichick?

Bill Jellyprick has lost his edge.

Roberto Spiralli, Friday, 30 August 2013 14:07 (eleven years ago) link

Fells and Ballard released. so week 1 TE group looks to be Sudfeld and Hoomanawanui. here's hoping Sudfeld is actually as good as he has looked at times.

Roberto Spiralli, Friday, 30 August 2013 22:23 (eleven years ago) link

i assume gronk is coming back soon then?

i knew ballard was gone when he wasn't finishing his routes late in the game last night.

call all destroyer, Saturday, 31 August 2013 00:51 (eleven years ago) link

yeah i heard about that. i also wondered if this was an indication that they'll keep gronk off the reg season PUP

Roberto Spiralli, Saturday, 31 August 2013 01:00 (eleven years ago) link

trying to go 6 weeks with 2 tight ends would be insane even by patriots standards. tho i guess there's a rumbling that they might re-sign fells after week 1 for less money.

call all destroyer, Saturday, 31 August 2013 01:01 (eleven years ago) link

that's interesting. also i guess develin the full back played some practice snaps at TE

Panaïs Pnin (The Yellow Kid), Saturday, 31 August 2013 15:56 (eleven years ago) link

i have come to wonder if perhaps the primary reason the patriots signed tebow in the first place was not as a player but as a sober buddy, life coach and lifeline for aaron hernandez, who by most accounts they knew was spiraling out of control. it would make a lot of sense. and if that's the case, the murder -- just one week after they signed tebow -- literally left tebow with no role on the team, which would have made the next couple of months mighty awkward, which they may well in fact have been. in that last preseason game, he looked thoroughly unprepared to be the patriots' second- or third-string quarterback, or anyone's second- or third-string quarterback.

and yet i find all the talk about how his nfl career is clearly over to be way premature. he's a competitor, he's got incredible desire, character of course, and some very obvious football skills unrelated to throwing a ball to a human target. he ain't done.

fact checking cuz, Saturday, 31 August 2013 22:43 (eleven years ago) link

in the nfl? i have to assume he's done as a quarterback.

YOU FOOLS PAY OVER $2.50 for a comic book (forksclovetofu), Saturday, 31 August 2013 22:45 (eleven years ago) link

and speaking of that last preseason game, tom brady appeared to spend the entirety of it gabbing with julian edelman on the sidelines. there's your third-string qb right there if you really need one.

fact checking cuz, Saturday, 31 August 2013 22:47 (eleven years ago) link

(xp) i ain't no coach but the dude is smart and inspirational and can run the football and could probably be a perfectly good clipboard-holding backup qb for some second division nfl team somewhere. right? right???
