The issue of who should start at QB this season for the New York Jets has been talked about ad nauseum. It's talked about everyday on sports radio and ESPN. Skip Bayless is in love with him so much you'd think he was his secret lovechild. But, the fact of the matter is is that Tim Tebow should be starting for the Jets.
While Sanchez is certainly underachieved, it's certainly not all of his fault. After watching the Jets last two games (losses vs. 49ers and Texans), it's obvious the talent around him is awful. But that's exactly why Tebow should be starting. Tebow finds ways to win, almost unexplainably. Whether it be he his running ability, his intangibles, or just enough good throws to win in the end, he more often than not finds a way. Call me a believer in Tebow. The guy has proven at every level in his life he is a winner. And the fact that he does not have the arm to be a starting caliber NFL QB makes it all of the more amazing.
The time will come eventually. Sanchez will continue to melt under media scrutiny and Tebow will get his chance sometime this season. If they never wanted or expected this situation to possibly arise, they never would have traded for Tebow. They are just clinging on to hope that Sanchez somehow turns it around and justifies the high draft pick and big money. That day isn't coming.
I do not support for the Jets, so in the end I really have no stake in this dilemma. But, I hope this day comes sooner rather than later. It's been talked about enough. Tebow Time for the Jets has come.
