"Franchise QBs" like Brady, who wasn't a first round draft pick? Or Rogers, who sat as backup behind Favre? How about we just use a QB we already have. One that protects the ball, doesn't throw many interceptions, and gets the job done. I want WINS more than I want a tight pretty spiral (I know, Michael Scott, that's what she said). Both Tebow and McElroy deserve a chance to start some games and show what they've got. I think they'd both protect the ball better than Sanchez. You all know that I love Tebow, but I also saw McElroy in the preseason and was impressed. His accuracy looked good and his play was smooth. It's hard for either Tebow or McElroy to show what they've got when they don't get reps with the 1st team, though.

FWIW, McElroy led Alabama to a win over FL one year when Tebow was QB, and that was the game when Tebow took responsibility as a QB for losing the game. Yeah, that was when he cried, and some of you as probably jeering at that, but he definitely didn't sound like Sanchez "We've got to get better" and "some mistakes were made". Tebow took effing responsibility, worked harder and resumed winning. Again, no secret that I prefer the SEC to snotty West Coast QBs. McElroy or Tebow. Try them both before you judge them to be busts. BTW, Alabama is the Patriots of college football. Hated and feared. But I give them props for their fierce game play.
Sorry ma'am, but that loss came at the hands of the Jevan Snead led Ol' Miss Rebels. As a Tebow hater since his UF days, I'll never forget that day
