The proper way for the New York Jets to utilize Tim Tebow is to reinvent Paul Hornung, Notre Dame quarterback and Green Bay Packers halfback, by using Tebow strictly as a halfback. Tebow is bigger and faster than Hornung and surely he is competitive with "The Golden Boy" in passing. When a defense encounters a quarterback who can run or a halfback who can throw (and is called upon often to use this option), then it has a more difficult task. Difficulty in decision-making by corners, safeties and linebackers also significantly increases the likelihood of errors by the defense. Any team that can utilize two effective ball-tossers will have an advantage over the defense substantially greater than a team that employs only a single ball-tosser. That seems to be common sense. Further, this ability ought to spread defenses, confuse defenses and importantly tire defenses, hastening the opponents collective demise.
