Thomas bites the hand that fed him

Demaryius Thomas has recently explained on a SportsRadioInterviews.com that he is happy to see Peyton Manning come in due to Tebow's poor play. Interesting considering Tebow at quarterback doubles his statistics in one season.

Tim Tebow was not necessarily the best quarterback to ever play in the NFL, we all know that. However, he did some incredible things with the Bronco's last season even though you do have to give credit to their amazing defence.

Thomas, who has a lot to be thankful of Tebow in my opinion, also extended a group opinion that,

"Everything on ESPN was all about Tim... That bothered some players too."

I think Thomas forgets that without Tebow he was not a relevant wide receiver.

Tebow- Thomas... Big Play Potential

I will be the first person to agree that Tebow threw some serious melons in his days at Denver. The ball was not clean and he did miss some open receivers. However, when you look at Kyle Orton and what he brings to the table, you have a decent quarterback. Thomas was not getting the ball last season under Orton, Tebow comes in and gives Thomas some plays to remember. Obviously, Thomas was not criticising Tebow when he threw him a 80 yard bomb to beat the Steelers in the post season.

The man from Georgia Tech has a very big mouth. His 2010 stats sit at around 280 yards and 2 TDs whereas in 2011 he went to 551 yeards and 4 touchdowns. Thomas was injured for a part of the season but without Tebow he was irrelevant on this offense.

Thomas should shut up personally. He was not a factor before Tebow, he might not be a factor afterwards. In all fairness, if I was Peyton Manning then I would not be happy with a WR criticising an old QB. Manning might develop a better relationship with Eric Decker, which seems to be a better option in terms of speed and hands.

Thomas seemed to forget that he is not a Top 10 NFL receiver yet. He has no right to criticise the man who put him on ESPN and he needs to be quiet.

Tebow not in control of ESPN

As for his ESPN comments. First off, I do not think Thomas' team-mates would appreciate his grouping that people were mad at everything being about Tebow. Tim fully noted in interviews consistently that he thanked his defence for being awesome. Anyone who knows anything about football knows that Denver's success was due to the stout defence and Tebow's success was also about a good running game. For Thomas to speak for the whole Denver squad when he is still very young in this league seems very arrogant.

As for Tebow being all over ESPN, who's fought was that. Tebow did not ask to be glorified nor was he glorified all the time. He took a lot of stick on ESPN as well as praise. People were always talking about him not being long-term. Not the kind of stuff you want to hear if your taking a team to the play-offs. Tebow did not crave attention.

Thomas is blaming Tebow for things he cannot control and should realise that he was nothing if Tebow was not there. Tebow made Thomas and it would not surprise me to see Manning and Decker link up together. All I know is that I will not draft Thomas in Fantasy Football with comments like that.

My Man Skip Bayless says it all.

Manning chooses Denver while Seattle snap up Matt Flynn

After a lot of discussion, it seems the top two quarterbacks on the free-agency market have finally been signed. Peyton Manning signed for Denver yesterday while Matt Flynn decided to move to the west coast and became a Seahawk.

NFL's worst conferences get boasts

The addition of these new quarterbacks into the AFC West and NFC West were definitely tactical decisions. These two conferences are easily the weakest in their own divisions.

Elway and Fox get their traditional quarterback

From Day One of Tim Tebow's career it has been clear that the important men in Denver have always a typical quarterback; strange coming from Elway who was himself a quarterback kind of like Tebow.

Although what Tebow does in response is unsure, a man who took a very poor team into the semi-finals of the AFC, I am sure he will find a role and the rumour is that Jacksonville are already interested. I still think that Manning should have gone to Tennessee but he has guaranteed himself a play-off place after going into a weak division.

Manning's signing comes after a lot of speculation. Although contract negotiations have not been agreed, it seems that a 5-year, $95 million deal. Very expensive for someone who might end his career after one big hit.

Most Broncos fans will be ecstatic by this signing, however I would still be unsure due to his physical situation.

Flynn will need to be a 'Seahawk' to be successful

It was no stranger to see Tavarris Jackson on the the medical list week after week in Seattle. If your wondering why then just watch a game to see a poor offensive line.

Flynn's decision to take the deal in Seattle is a strange one. I hope he is good at handling pressure because he will be chased consistency in his first few games to see if he can handle a starting position in the NFL.

Although his conference is also very weak, Flynn's success might be measured by his offensive line rather his ability which is a shame. He does however have an inspired Marshawn Lynch in the backfield and players like Sidney Rice and Zach Miller to throw the ball to; he definitely has a chance.

Flynn signed a three-year deal worth $26 million with $10 million being guaranteed. Flynn was easily the second best option after Peyton Manning and the Seahawks have made a good acquisition. Hopefully he is the man that Seattle have needed for a long and allows them to focus on their offensive line in the draft.

It is great to see two 'weaker' teams sign these big players. I am probably over-critical of Manning but its not because I am not a fan, I do not buy into his physical condition after signing that huge contract with the Colts and then not playing all season long.

Only time will tell.
