Tebow is probably going to be used in a few different looks throughout the season. Why else would they pick him up? Hes not playing QB thats stupid.

I actually don't expect him to make the final cut. I think they signed him assuming he'd play for BB and the Pats, he'll do what they ask and maybe learn a new position. And learn that he's very difficult to deal with and as a QB, really does suck..

cause we dont have character risk guys? Suh stomps on people and cant drive a car under 100 mph

... wow ... pats are more talented at basically ever facet of the game..including coaching, upp mgmt, GM.

oh you mean Bob Sanders, mush brain and that guy they keep showing jogging in a pool?...ya ton of production there.

Suh is a character guy because he's a terrible driver? He lost his head the one time....the kid is now labeled as dirty. He plays his heart out and is looking for that knockout punch everytime. I love his style.....he gets bashed for no reason....its not fair.

Agreed 100%.

Stupid to expect him to be a great driver because he is a high profile football player. I'm SURE he is the only 26 year old with a shitty driving record. No? Hmmmmmmm

My buddy had 3 tickets before he was 16 1/2. Had 2 in the first 2 weeks he had a license. Speeding and careless driving.

He was much better last year in terms of his temper and seems to be even more focused on leaving that behind him this year.

suh wasn't the only passenger in the car. He was putting other peoples lives in danger. People that didn't want to be in that situation. The kid is a hell of a football player....but it doesn't excuse him from being a fucking idiot.

He has had 3 high profile blunders in his short career and that does hurt him. But I dont think he is dirty but like you said playing really hard. He grew up a lot last year with only 1 bogus PF as well as being the calmest guy on the line this year as well as most disruptive. Also how many bullshit fines has he received...off the top of my head I cant think of the hair pull down ruled as a horse collar tackle which they never rescinded it all really cost the team during the game. The "punch" to cuntler's head which also was bs because it was only a push. ESPNsucks drives me nuts when they talk about him being dirty and they always show that play its nonsense. That penalty also cost the team late in the game it gave them really good field position. He is unfairly judged as is this team and I am sick of it.

When I'm in a car, with someone else - my first thought isn't to drive 100mph. I mean who drives that fast outside of an idiot? And he was passing cars on the right..

And of course Coach didn't help the situation:

"The No. 1 concern is what's here in the facility, and then on the field on Sundays," Schwartz said. "We have traffic citations for a lot of different players. Those generally don't come across my desk and don't really get on our radar when it comes to stuff like that, as long as people are taking care of what they're supposed to be taking care of."

Not saying Coach should be there to babysit but at least have a little concern over the rights and wrongs..

Don't forget these 3 beauties:

He was ticketed for speeding, improperly signaling and not carrying proof of insurance during a March stop in his hometown of Portland, Ore. Police said he was driving a BMW 91 mph in a 55 mph zone.

In December 2011, Suh lost control of a car and crashed into a drinking fountain and tree in Portland. A woman has filed a civil lawsuit seeking $1 million from Suh in the crash.

He also was involved in a traffic accident last month in Dearborn. Police in the Detroit suburb said the accident was minor and fault could not be determined. When Suh played at Nebraska he pleaded guilty to negligent driving and paid a $60 fine after crashing into three parked cars.
