Where did I say anything about benching Drew or running the wildcat with Tebow? Don't put words in my mouth becuase you came up with an insanely dumb idea. Maybe you should read before you respond.

To even suggest Tebow throwing one pass is completely stupid. And if he MIGHT throw the ball, obviously thats taking it out of Drew's hands.

If what the OP says is true, then Payton agrees with me, but hey, what does he know? Lets just go with what you say and run plays where Tebow MIGHT throw the ball. Excellent idea, man. Our offense obviously is in desperate need of the extra wrinkle Tebow would provide us with. The Saints obviously need the circus that comes with acquiring Tebow. Great idea.

We have one of the top rated FBs of the last couple years, no use there. We have 5 RBs better than him, no use there. We have a top 2 TE and just added Watson, no use there. And there is definitely no use for any plays where he MIGHT throw the ball.

Why would you take the ball out of your best player's hands? Do we really want Tebow throwing the ball when we have Brees at the helm?

Like Payton said when we had Regge and the wildcat was the flavor of the month- Our offense is good enough that we don't have to resort to gimmicks like that.

Why? Put Tebow in at halfback and run something like a halfback toss and give him the option to pass or tuck it. Again, I didn't ever once say put him at QB did I? I'm saying the possibilities are endless with him in the game and being utilized by one of the best offensive playcallers in the game. If you don't think Payton could find creative ways to use him, your nuts.

First of all, Tebow will never come here. This all obviously hypothetical. And why couldn't it use an extra wrinkle? What's it going to hurt? And do you honestly think there would be a circus here? It's given he's not challenging for the QB spot so there's zero competition there. As I've said 10 times, he would be a utility player.

Again. If you don't think Payton would find a way to utilize him efficiently, your nuts.
