Tebow in Pittsburgh?  Thoughts?

Stay connected for news and updates



With all of the talk swirling about Tebow leaving the Jets, it got me thinking about where he might land. Now, this is strictly hypothetical, but I was curious as to what the rest of the BTSC community thought of possibly having Tebow in black and gold.

A couple of thoughts... First, our backup QB situation this year hasn't exactly been inspiring. Batch had a great finish to the Ravens game, but as much as I love Batch (and I have loved having him on the team), it might be time for a change in our backups- especially given their propensity for injuries. Secondly, Tebow plays a bit more like Big Ben. If (and when) Ben goes down again, it might be good to have someone who plays a similar style so that there is less shifting around of the offense. Tebow does not have the accuracy of Ben, but it would be a similar mindset, which can go a long way.

This all seems fairly unlikely, especially because Tebow will probably want to go somewhere where he has a chance to start, which won't happen in Pittsburgh. But he is a high-character guy who is self-motivated, a team player, and willing to do what it takes to win, which sounds like the kind of guy I want on the Steelers. I honestly don't know how it would all work, but what do you all think? Good idea? Bad idea?
