Perhaps I am reading this wrong or my hate for Matt Cassel is still brewing but, couldn't the Patriots have signed Cassel back if they needed a backup or someone to push Mallet? Instead they go to Tim Tebow. Does this equate to the level of SUCK that is Matt Cassel when your old, old team doesn't even want you back?
Also, this might be a good thing for Tebow. With more teams going to the pistol type offense and mobile QB's, wouldn't Tebow make a decent addition to practice against. Yea his throwing might suck but letting a defense see what happens when you don't cover correctly or the QB starts to scramble around might be a benefit.
I am no means a patriot fan but it seems like a win all around. They still have Brady so no QB controversy. Belichek won't let the Tebow Circus setup its tents and start being a distraction like the Jets did. The Patriots have something to practice against. Tebow is back with Josh McDanials so might get some actual coaching. The Pats aren't out a ton of money.
Watch what happens....I bet they put him in during preseason or at the end of the season during garbage time and he lights things up. Then some desperate team (coughjaguarscough) will think he has been fixed and give the Pats a 2nd or 3rd round pick for him. Belichek makes off like a bandit again just like he did with the Cassel trade.
