Tim Tebow News Update 2013: NFL Free Agent ‘Is Better Than Anyone On Jacksonville Roster,’ Tebow Fans Flew ‘Tebow, Why Not?’ Banner Over Jaguars Stadium

Tim Tebow is a former NFL employer unemployed and with no solid career path looming this season. But according to famous sports blog, the much hyped-up player and media magnet “would be an instant upgrade for Jacksonville Jaguars.”

“Tim Tebow isn’t a good NFL quarterback,” wrote the Bleacher Report’s Jessee Reed, “but he’s better than anyone currently on the roster for the Jacksonville Jaguars.”

According to Reed, the Jaguars, heading to Week 5 of the season, has displayed a level of futility to rival the 2008 Detroit Lions, losing their first four games by an average of 24.5 points per game.

The Jaguar’s quarterback has been sacked an incredible and embarrassing 18 times and have also just managed to complete just 53 percent of their passes, leading to a pitiful average of 5.5 yards per attempt.

As long as the offense is tailored to Tim Tebow’s skillset, he would be an instant upgrade for the team, Reed reasons.

The idea of Tebow going back to the Jaguars is one that has some massive support behind it. Or at least as the Tebowmaniacs makes everyone believed.

In a recent stunt by one of his die-hard fans, a banner with the message “Tebow, Why Not?” was spotted above EverBank Field in Jacksonville as the Jaguars played the Colts on Sunday, the Huffington Post reports.

The sign was seen as incumbent Jags quarterback Blaine Gabbert had already thrown two interceptions. He would later add a third during the game.

The sky-high banner begging the possibility of a Tebow comeback was posed to those at EverBank Field just a few weeks after a group aiming to pressure the Jags into signing Tebow held a rally at the stadium parking lot. According to the Huffington Post, the outing wasn’t a rousing success (didn’t yield any Tebow comeback aspired), but it seems that the pro-Tebow fan base is relentless.

In the tweet showing the banner, the hashtag #tebowtime based on Hashtracking is included in an average of 400-500 tweets daily and reaches at least 200,000 people at a time.

In a blog post by USA Today posted Wednesday, the Jaguars signing Tebow may make the team more relevant and a not in a “How bad will he be?” thiking, but “Hey, who knows?” The post went on to suggest that with the team currently in “contention for the worst team in NFL history,” it won’t hurt to sign the famous NFL player and give it a shot.

“As long as they are giving up on 2013, they might as well sign Tim Tebow and give him a shot,” the blog post when on to say.
