TEAMMATES CALL TEBOW "TERRIBLE"

Tim Tebow's transition to the New York Jets has been full of friction, especially when teammates recently called Tebow "terrible" in comments to the Daily News.
Last year, fans praised Tebow for taking the losing Denver Broncos team and putting them into the playoffs. However, after being traded to the Jets, he is still only the third string quarterback and hasn't seen much playing time.
When Matt Slauson, the Jets's left guard, was asked by the Daily News about the teams backup quarterbacks, Tebow and Greg McElroy he said, "We have Greg... and we have an athlete."
Coach Rex Ryan and other players have defended Tebow, but say they will stick with Mark Sanchez, their current starting quarterback, even though the team is in danger of losing a chance at the playoffs.
Tebow himself doesn't seem to be bothered by the comments. He told ESPN, "It's never fun to hear criticism. At the same time, it's something I've always used as motivation. You try to get stronger from it."
