The Temptation of Tebow?

So Tim Tebow has come down from his Mile High status is Denver and now looks to take a bite out of the Big Apple. Well, here's hoping he doesn't choke. There are already detractors like former Jet great Joe Namath who doesn't feel Timmy is up to the task and criticized the franchise for supporting Mark Sanchez then bringing in other quarterbacks, clearly sending mixed messages. Whatever the case it will be interesting to see how Rex Ryan makes use of Tebow's abilities, and despite the rumors he does have some, and where he will fit in in NY. From all accounts he's a good teammate and a great guy so it shouldn't be hard for Tebow to endear himself to those in the locker room, but what about the rest of the city? Was this as Namath suggested a publicity stunt? With the Giants winning the Super Bowl, again, is this a ploy by the Jets to get some attention? It's not as if the Broncos would give him away if they felt entirely confident in his ability to lead them to a championship thus the signing of Payton Manning. It will be interesting to see what comes of this to say the least, in the city that never sleeps it may be a while before Jets fans get any rest.
