It's old hat at this point if you've been following the NFL at all, but it's too perfect not to at least summarize, even if too briefly: The Jets brought Tim Tebow in during the off-season, and said that Mark Sanchez was the starter but also that Tim Tebow would factor into the offense in some meaningful way. He didn't. But Sanchez sucked too. After a bunch of stuff, they benched Sanchez, while Tebow was injured, for third-string quarterback Greg McElroy. The owner said he wanted McElroy in the next game, but the coaches reinstalled Sanchez. Two games later, Sanchez was almost historically bad, so they pulled him again for McElroy between that game and this one—during that same week, Chris Mortensen reported Tebow's intention to leave for Jacksonville in the off-season. Jason La Canfora
reported that Tebow wouldn't even dress—then he did, and both Tebow and Sanchez were
listed as the #2 QB on the depth chart, somehow. Got it? Greg McElroy was sacked 11
(11) times today, and Jeremy Kerley, a wide receiver,
surpassed Tebow's total yardage with one pass that went for 42 yards (Tebow has racked up 39 passing this year) about two minutes into the game. So. Yeah. What do two quarterbacks enconsced in perhaps one of the biggest quarterbacking cluster****s of all time say to each other when they're both listed at #2 on the depth chart? Nothing, it appears:
We wouldn't be representing this game the way it happened if we didn't give you McElroy on the ground—but we went another way with it: Watch QB1 try to make a tackle after he threw an interception at the end of the third quarter. He's number 14. It took me a minute:
And finally, to get the taste out of your mouth, a 63-yard punt return touchdown from the Chargers' Micheal Spurlock. (Yes, #3 is the punter.) It wasn't the difference, but very little that could have happened during this one would have made much of a difference:
It's like Christmas up in here o
