Schefter:
One source who spoke with Manning prior to his visit with the Cardinals said "his gut is that Manning is leaning toward Denver."
Skyhook may jump off a bridge if this happens. Presumably they would trade Tebow. He isn't going to do them or himself any good as a backup. Yikes.

Were that to happen PFT is reporting that Shad Kahn in Jacksonville would do any and everything to trade for Tebow.
Tebow would be an ideal fit in JAX with MJD. Since they don't throw the ball anyhow he'd fit in perfectly running a spread option.

So? Carolina took Cam even though they had Jimmy Crack Corn...Gabbert, like Colt McCoy, is a bottom feeder QB in the league. Tebow would be a) an upgrade and b) would help fill up seats.

You really think Tebow is an upgrade over Gabbert? Based on what?

Gabbert had a higher completion percentage as a rookie than Tebow had in his second year, while throwing for more yards. To say they aren't comparable is silly.

How many QB's have taken over a team at a 1-4 start and not only win your Division but also win a Playoff game?

Just mentioning the bottom feeder QB's in the league. Whether you want to think I'm going out of my way to bash him, or not, he IS one of the bottom feeder/ranked QB's in the NFL lumped in with the likes of Gabbert, Painter, etc.

That is not fair. McCoy doesn't have any weapons. Give him weapons and he will be a Pro bowler and the Browns will be in the Super Bowl.

you posted that record of 3-10 in one posession games. That's with his first year starting, with no off season, in an offense with no vision and no weapons. I like McCoy with weapons, with our defense backing him.

You can't say "no doubt about it" though like it's a lock. Just like I could very well be wrong and McCoy could blossom (highly doubtful). They could surround him with weapons and he could remain a "checkdown machine" because he remains afraid to make a mistake.

I also think he was a MAJOR cause for that 3-10 record and I think a better QB would've had them closer to 6-7 or 7-6 in those games, if not more.
