How many times have we heard players say "I want to stay here" yet if they get a better offer, they BOLT?!?!? IE: Once again...Your Honor, I bring the case of one Tony Gonzalez to the bench.
Things change, eh?
I'm not sayin', I'm just sayin'.
Everyone knew when Elway said that, what he meant was "For now, we are stuck with Tebow, until we can find somebody better!"
Elway had no intention of starting Tebow this year. He only said that to appease the fans. Peyton Manning was the only QB he could bring in that wouldn't have caused a backlash from the fans. If he signed Matt Flynn or drafted a rookie like Tannehill, do you think the fans would have been happy with one of them starting ahead of Tebow?
And when he said they would do what is best for Tebow, he meant, "The best thing for Tebow is to trade him, and we will trade him to whatever team gives us the best offer."
The Chiefs are no different. When Crennel and Pioli says "Matt is out quarterback" they mean "... unless he really stinks up the field and Brady or Ricki outplay him." I'm fine with that. I want the best QB on the field.
And so does Elway. I was just saying, "don't take whatever he says at face value."
And getting a little playful dig in at "the enemy!"
