I noticed that the group that I was watching the game with often gasped audibly when Tebow let the ball go and we couldn't yet see his target in the picture. There just seems to be a constant wondering in all our minds: "Oh, holy shit. I wonder if any Broncos are there."

I think the team success of the Broncos can definitely be attributed at least partially to Tim Tebow's presence. There is something to be said for having confidence in sports and these guys truly believe in their QB and their ability to win on any given day. That's what Tebow is doing for them.
Does he have a bright future as a QB in this league? I wouldn't say that...not with the way he throws, but he might be able to hold a starting job for a while provided he limits his mistakes and turnovers. |

I've been extremely critical of Tebow and have poked fun at his 46% countless times this season, but today's game was different. He actually played well this time. It wasn't the defense saving his ass or him having a fluke 4th Q where the defense went into prevent. He made good reads, and did a solid job throwing today. Denver does a great job using max protection to give him time to throw as well. The offensive system is certainly tailored to make him look good. |

Just the opposite. By my count, he was 6/11 on deep passes and 4/10 on short passes. He is just ineffective in making the routine throws that are the bread and butter of most QBs.

A Tim Tebow-led team wins a playoff game...and we're here going on 19 years of absolutely nothing.
I ****ing hate football. |

But one of Josh McDaniels' weaknesses as a Head Coach was that he locked on to specific players and went after them. He went after Tebow and Moreno because he wanted them, and he reached for both. Moreno never has had a strong impact on this team and he's heading into "bust" territory simply because he was reached for. Tebow on the other hand...I think you'd have to be an idiot to think he can't get any better at this point. He started three games last year. He became the starter halfway through the fifth game this year. That's it. That's his NFL experience. He gets more credit than he deserves for the wins, and he gets more blame than he deserves for the losses. That comes with being the QB. No big deal. He can handle it, and we haven't seen anything yet. |

Ike Taylor got off the plane in Denver and told himself he was going to have far and away his worst game as a professional football player. He achieved that, and then some.
Thanks for the next week of listening to all the Tebow bullshit, Ike. You prick. |

It was actually the saftey's fault for creeping down, but whatever.

Tebow is better than cassel. We can hate because he is a Bronco, but it was him that threw those TD's. He may not be drop back passer right now, but wait he will get better. I just hope we have our QB by then and a better D then the Broncos to be competitive.

I'd argue that we already do.

Got to hand it to Fox, for playing with the cards he was dealt. ClevelandBronco's post is most accurate: Tebow is an enigma. The way the inside option was run, is an indicator. He is a FB that can heave the ball.

What is so sad about this is they have a fullback that is better at qb then cassel is at qb.
