The fascinating soap opera surrounding the New York Jets rotating cast of quarterbacks after starting third stringer Greg McIlroy last week jets coach Rex Ryan says he plans to give his original starter Mark Sanchez -- -- In the -- last game of the season against buffalo.

This Sunday McIlroy has a concussion did you know.

Both times coach Ryan snubbed the most famous back up quarterback in all of football that man Tim Tebow who gets a lot of attention despite his lack of experience.

PR consultant Frazier side tell joins us he is the president.

Of the communications firm emerald partners and he's the coauthor of the book rethinking reputation.

How PR -- marketing and advertising.

In the new media world Frazier got the CA do you really think the jets went after Timmy Tebow but because maybe pub -- publicity instead of the fact that he's a good quarterback.

You think Trace -- -- in March when they announced since it was the biggest PR story in sports.

He could have been either the grandest experiment in NFL history or the greatest blunder.

In professional sports it turned out to be the greatest catastrophe in the history of the world.

I mean the owner lost the coach -- the offensive coordinator lost Tebow lost it.

Was a lose lose lose lose.

Situation.

Inconceivable.

Well I admittedly let Timmy Tebow doesn't have the skills that Aaron Rodgers has -- you look back at this time in Florida man and his time at Denver even.

And he's a winner of the kid knows how to wins those quarterback skills are great but.

You know he's -- he's a guy who knows how to get things done right.

-- -- absolutely and the and the fact of the matter is it's what you said they tried to seek out publicity for publicity sake.

They said we'll get the publicity first and then figure out where to fit a man and not only have they not fit -- -- they haven't given him a shot.

He's being paid essentially.

Three million dollars to sit and watch the games which come to think of it.

To be forced to watch the -- games they probably ought to pay -- more.

Yeah the judge still doesn't mean that -- that that goes without saying they can bring Joseph -- back in behind that offensive line Frazier.

He get killed is -- your sense that this Tim Tebow experiment.

Is over that this Sunday whether he plays or not is going to be his last game -- -- -- I suspect that's right in May be coach Ryan's last game.

An offensive coordinator Sparano as last game and quarterback Sanchez's last game and certainly.

It's the last game for Tebow but I'll tell you this.

Where ever Tim Tebow lands he's a good kid he's a religious kid I guarantee you he will continue to be the starting quarterback.

On God's fantasy team.

Yeah and will disagree I think Mark Sanchez is going to be there for a -- because they've got to locked up in that contract but I think Tim Tebow will go to another team.

And if he goes to another team -- would you tell that team look.

This is a guy who can bring some fan he's in seats because he's so popular -- -- You know you get him because the football player but he really does sells a lot of jerseys and fills a lot of stadium.

It's absolutely -- strong and he can catch.

And he can throw in the proper -- is what they did with him in Denver.

The tragedy of the jets is they never gave this kid a chance.

Well I think the tragic.

In the jets is probably a self standing statement there because it's been an awful year for them but but really.

Tim Tebow overall through all of this is still got a future very bright future whether he's success -- the football field or not I don't think I think he does -- thank goodness we still have the New York Giants here in New York.

Yeah exactly.

Brighter -- tell -- happy new -- good to see you thank you thank you.
