Why should we keep Tebow or Barkley? They are both horrible and beyond the "development " stage. If we cut them neither one would be picked up anyway so they could be resigned if we got desperate . Also, CJ Kinne is around too if need be. Why not keep an extra player that might actually help the team? The Pats only have carried two for the last couple of years. I just read where Chip never carried a third QB once all last year so why waste a roster spot on them?

the problem is, I think Chip has a TebonerWe're looking for people that are fundamentally different,” vice president of player personnel Andy Weidl said Saturday night. “The love and passion for football, it's non-negotiable. They're caring, their character, they do the right thing persistently, and they have a relentless playing style that you can see on tape. The motor, it burns hot. You see them finishing plays. They have a team-first mentality. They're selfless individuals.

Yeah, I don't think Barkley is horrible. He's looked OK. The biggest issue in real games was the interceptions, but that was mostly rookie year and being put into games where the Eagles were well behind.
I don't think he's more than a backup, but he could be a solid NFL backup. His stats weren't great this last game but his first two passes were beautiful and were horrifically dropped by Pratt and Tomlinson. His stats go from 5 for 9 to 7 for 9 if those two are caught, and probably gets more first downs etc. as well.
He seems to be clearly behind Sanchez though, and if a guy is not ready to be a #2 QB in his third year in the system.... I can see looking for someone else to groom. He probably needs a shot elsewhere.
I just do not want Tebow to be that QB. But I may not get my wish. So if that is the case, I pray that Tebow is the inactive #3 all season long.

Not sure why anybody seems think that Chip would show his hand in fake phoney games in regards to the goal line plays he might have in mind for Tebow. Since none of us sees the weeks of practice, we are really at Chip's mercy when it comes to making judgments. Not like the old days when you could go to camp and see the comparisons.

I agree here actually. Barkley might sign somewhere but Tebow and Kinne would be available and if we need a third stringer for more than a week who cares anyway.You know Darren if you'd have told me 10 years ago that someday I was going to solve the world's energy problems I'd have said your crazy.... now lets drop this big ball of oil out the window.
