Chip Kelly is his last hope.

Once the inevitable Bradford injury hits us the first game of the season, we will roll out the Jets' 2012 QB rotation.

I'm going to cry.

Well there is a fine line between genius and insanity. We'll see which side of the line Chip Kelly falls on this year...

There's also a rumor that they are trying to move Bradford to Cleveland for Johnny Football and the Browns' first round pick. Please make this happen.

In theory I don't hate trying Tebow in that offense. He fits better than Bradford and his Mr. Glass body. If Tebow can complete even 55% he'll make that offense cook.

In practice, Tebow ain't completing 55% unless every throw is exactly 12 yards. I saw a metric where his completion percentage on throws less than 10 yards is 43%. Between 11 and 15 yards he's 57%. Over 15 he's 26%.

Tebow and Manziel on the same team? ESPN just moved their headquarters to Philadelphia.

That's interesting, I'd have thought his long throws would be most accurate considering he's played with some good receivers who can adjust if the ball is in the air a while longer even if the accuracy is off. Philly does have some big tall receivers.

I don't know about that particular rumor's validity but I do 100% know the Browns will listen to anyone making offers for both Manziel and Justin Gilbert. They're already ready to wash their hands of last year's 1st round. SMH :noway:

What good receivers? The Eagles have lost their two best wideouts in the last two off seasons.

Tebow is a terrible starting quarterback. At best he'll come in certain packages and run the read option, but that's about all he can do for you.

Right now I'd put the Giants ahead of the Eagles as second behind Dallas. Beckham Jr. is only gonna get better and Cruz will be returning and that's one of the most dynamic duos in the league when it comes to wide receivers.
