Only five things could top Wednesday's madness

This was quite a week to start working at NFL.com.

Darlington: NYC, Tebow perfect fit

Think the bright lights of the big city frighten the humble, god-fearing Tim Tebow? Think again, writes Jeff Darlington. **More ...**

On my first full day, the Broncos signed Peyton Manning. That news cycle didn't last long, did it?

On Wednesday, Saints coach Sean Payton was suspended for the year and Tim Tebow was traded to the Jets. And then Tebow wasn't traded. And then he was.

I'm looking forward to big things by the end of Thursday. At this rate, what stories could possibly top Wednesday's events?

5. Andrew Luck and Oliver Luck announce at his pro day that he refuses to play in Indianapolis

Like Eli Manning in 2004, perhaps Luck will decide that he doesn't want to be part of a rebuilding effort.

4. The Jets put Mark Sanchez on the trade block

Sure, Jets general manager Mike Tannenbaum said Sanchez was the starter on Wednesday. The Jets also vehemently insisted for weeks that Brian Schottenheimer would be back as their offensive coordinator.

3. Terrell Owens rejects the Dolphins

T.O. is desperate enough for work that he will take a job in the Indoor Football League, but even he thinks Miami is a mess. Instead, he chooses another team in the most interesting division in football.

2. The Jets sign Terrell Owens

Jets owner Woody Johnson just doesn't think the Jets have enough attention or distractions yet.

1. Brett Favre hired as next Saints head coach

This would bring us one step closer to internet football story nirvana: Combining Favre and Tim Tebow into the same article.
