"I still see that last drive."
Wed, 25 Apr 2012 15:37:42 -0700 New York Jets WR Jeremy Kerley said QB Tim Tebow has more velocity on his passes than QB Mark Sanchez does. "Different than Mark, different than Mark," Kerley said.

Tue, 17 Apr 2012 10:24:52 -0700 New York Jets OG Matt Slauson said the team will essentially have two different offenses this year with QBs Mark Sanchez and Tim Tebow being mixed in. Sanchez will be the starter, but the team plans to use Tebow as an H-back, fullback and running back. Tebow will also be used as the "personal protector" on the punt team. "You guys will be really surprised by what Mark's going to do this year," Slauson said. "The way we're going to be running things plays right into Mark's strengths, running the ball. It'll be very similar to what we did in Rex's first two years, very much a style like that - heavy run, heavy play action and whipping out a deep ball every now and again. That's all the stuff Mark does really well."

"I ain't going to say I was sad because the only thing they remember is that pass," Thomas said. "You gotta go back and look at the rest of the games. I wasn't getting no balls and you had to make some of these plays where some players were open and he is not making the throws. But I don't want to talk bad about Tim, but hey I am happy we got Peyton."
Wed, 04 Apr 2012 10:08:01 -0700 Denver Broncos CB Champ Bailey said New York Jets players will enjoy having QB Tim Tebow as a teammate.

Whatever he gets, he deserves."
Wed, 04 Apr 2012 09:50:32 -0700 Denver Broncos CB Champ Bailey, a former teammate of New York Jets QB Tim Tebow, said Tebow will be challenging QB Mark Sanchez for the team's starting quarterback job.

But if he doesn't play well, we all know what's going to happen next."
Tue, 03 Apr 2012 10:20:17 -0700 New York Jets TE Dustin Keller thinks QB Tim Tebow will push QB Mark Sanchez, and the competition will be friendly and productive. "He's not coming in just thinking, 'OK, I'm the backup quarterback,'" Keller said. "Every quarterback wants to go in - or every position - and wants to be a starter.

"To try to win football games, however that is, and reach my potential, be the best quarterback, the best teammate, best football player that I can be and just add something to that locker room."

"I don't know what the future holds, but I know who holds my future," Tebow said, referring to his strong Christian faith. "That's something that has always given me peace and comfort. That's why I don't have to worry about the future. I can just worry about today and worry about becoming better as a football player and a person." He said his only plan is to help his new team win games and "be the best quarterback, best teammate, best football player I can be and just be someone that adds something to that locker room."
Thu, 29 Mar 2012 10:00:47 -0700 NCAA head coach Urban Meyer, who coached New York Jets QB Tim Tebow at Florida, said Tebow can excel as a pro quarterback if given the opportunity. When asked what the Jets should do with Tebow, Meyer said the same spread offense he runs in college would "absolutely" work in the NFL, and that the biggest thing is an NFL coach just needs to trust Tebow to take over games himself. "Let him play," Meyer said. "Just let him play."
Thu, 29 Mar 2012 09:55:01 -0700 New York Jets OT D'Brickashaw Ferguson said the addition of QB Tim Tebow will likely be a circus atmosphere; however, Ferguson noted the team's locker room is getting a lot better since the end of last season.
Thu, 29 Mar 2012 06:47:52 -0700 Former NFL RB Marshall Faulk said New York Jets QB Mark Sanchez has only himself to blame for the arrival of QB Tim Tebow. "If I'm Mark Sanchez, and they bring in Tebow, it means I hit one of those spells that I always hit," Faulk said. "He's just - Mark hasn't been consistent throughout the flow of games. He went weeks at a time and not looked good." Faulk singled out last season's clash between the Jets and Denver Broncos in Week 11 as proof. "The pick-six that Mark Sanchez threw against Denver, that they ran back for a touchdown and, in turn, gave Tebow an opportunity to drive down the field with the game-winning touchdown - Mark Sanchez? Yeah, all this is on him."

The Tebow trade occurred just before Nike replaces Reebok as the supplier of NFL team uniforms.

"He's going to bring another element to the Jets," Cromartie said. "He's a winner. He's a guy that never quits. If you give him a chance to win a game, he's going to go out and win it. I think that's what (general manager) Mike Tannenbaum and Rex (Ryan) saw in him."
