They'd be better off with Jason Garrett hanging up the mic and going out there to play > Tebow.
Tebow at best is a utilitarian player at this point, he's had enough opportunities to show that he can be an NFL QB. Don't get me wrong, as a broncos fan I was stoked to see him drafted, but it became quickly apparent that his mechanics would not enable him to be the QB that NFL teams desire. I know this argument has been made countless times...But having seen him play multiple times live when he was with the Broncos, he didnt have it. No doubt he's a great athlete, But as a QB.......

Exactly. We are talking 8 weeks. Cowboys invested in Cassel by giving up draft picks. Tebow would be someone you could throw in there randomly with Weeden to wear down defenses, and it would be zero investment.
I'm not even a Tebow fan, but he played 1000x better than Dustin Vaughn and didn't have Escobar(who would start for any other team in the NFL) to help out his stats. I get that teams aren't on the bandwagon for developing him as a QB, despite that he is better than probably 20% or more of actual starting NFL QBs, but throwing a 6'3" 240lb run threat QB in with Randle and McFadden some downs to punish defenses seems like a solid plan. And the Cowboys would be out absolutely nothing.
**edit** Also note how weak the Cowboys schedule is. There is a good chance that quite a few of those games can be won with 1 TD and good clock management.
