For some reason people think Tebow can be useful as a FB or TE because he's a "football player", he's tough, he's physical, not afraid to get hit, etc. While those things may be true, the real FBs and TEs are ****ing good at what they do, and some QB who hasn't played the position is not going to be anywhere near as good.
Personally I think Tebow's usefulness as some sort of short yardage specialist is very overrated. Having Peyton Manning on 3rd and 2 or any other guy who can, you know, throw the ball, is a much better option imo.
