Rapid reaction: Tim Tebow & Patriots – New England Patriots Blog – ESPN Boston

Mike Reiss’ thoughts:

I always thought that Belichick would take great satisfaction in bringing Tebow aboard – even for a month or two – and squashing the media circus. If Tebow was willing to submerge his ego and all the attention that has followed him in Denver and New York, and put the Patriots first, it would represent one of the strongest endorsements of the team-first approach that Belichick has preached and stressed since becoming head coach in 2000. Belichick often says that when a team signs a player, it gets everything that comes with him – on and off the field. With Tebow, he brings a media crush unlike any other.
