New England Releases Tim Tebow

It has been reported that Tim Tebow will not be wearing a Patriots uniform this year. Tebow was cut yesterday by New England, but not to worry because some crazy team will pick him up and try making him a quarterback.

I have been writing on Tim Tebow since his college days at Florida. I think he is one of the most competitive players out there, but quarterback is not his strength and for the life of me I can't figure out why coaches don't see this.

If Tebow is to succeed in this business he will have to develop into a tightend or fullback. If a team can teach him routes and how to catch, he could potentially be a very good pro player.

Matt Jones was a very good quarterback for Arkansas, but when he made it to the pro he became a tightend  for Jacksonville,and a very good one at that.I believe Tebow is in the same boat. I'm tired of everytime I look around Tebow is in the news. Either you can or can't be an nfl player.

What is your opinion of Tebow once again being released from a team? Do you believe he needs to be placed in another position? Leave a comment!

Will Michael Vick Or Nick Foles Start For The Philadelphia Eagles

I know it's still training camp and the first pre-season game is still a couple days away vs the New England Patriots, but the battle of these two quarterbacks for the starting position is a heated one.

Eagles coach Chip Kelly says he doesn't know who is the starter right now.What he's looking at in these two players is who will be able to move the ball.

We all know that the Eagles has some injuries on the team, especially at wide receivers, but that will not be an issue with Chip Kelly decision. It doesn't matter who is on the field, if the quarterback can't move the ball he will not be the starter for long.

What I'm most interested in as a football fan is not who will start the game for the Eagles, but who gets the most REPS with the first team. That gives you a chance to gauge what's on the mind of the coaching staff.

Nick Foles has had opportunities to take the starting position from Michael Vick and has not done so. I look for Vick to be the starter when September rolls around.

Who do you believe will be the starter for the Eagles come September?
