Next year is where the rubber meets the road. He's a very conservative QB and needs to work on a number of things.

I sincerely hope Elway gives Tebow a 10 year $100+ million extension this offseason.

Sure, it has to come from somewhere... and all he can do now is live up to and expand on it. I believe that when he talks and interacts with his teammates, they see him as genuine and they believe in him.

If you believe in your leader (whether its sports or anything in life) you're going to do what you need to do to raise the bar and it brings a team together. Now, he can't run on this fuel for a career, so yes - he has to improve the areas that everyone picks apart.

I'm interested to see what happens on Sunday - they need to instill the threat of a passing game, but they do have two critical things that you need to win in the playoffs - sound defense and a nice running game.

They need to get back to some of the things they were doing prior to the Chicago game and leave it all on the field ... time to go for broke.

Conservative is fine... pound the ball down their throats, eat up the clock... wear down their defense. But, they have to produce points. If the defense plays like they have played for the most part... 17-20 points can win this game and Denver can do that if they play 'not to lose' like they did on Sunday.

:LOL: Not a chance.... Elway has committed to working with him on things he needs to improve as a QB, but that's about it. There's no need to do any sort of contract reworking.

I don't know what happened to him between the game in KC & the game in Denver
Sunday he had no more confidence in his abilities than Matt Cassel

Yeah, it was weird to watch... that's how I would have expected him (and the team) to play had SD already defeated the Raiders prior to their game. Not sure how to explain it, but he certainly wasn't playing like he has been from a decision making perspective.

Scrambling for that first down and then fumbling... as soon as that happened I thought "there is no chance they win now". It's like Fox decided "ok, I'm definitely going to wait until the last drive to try and win it".

They need to throw more often early in the game... not late when it's expected like on Sunday.

I absolutely love the fact that Tebow is in denver. Welcome to our world chumps. To quarterback hell you go!!

Ohh hell no.. Listen to the media and the possibility of being a Pro-Bowl alternate his rookie season. LOCK HIM UP NOW WHILE HIS ASKING PRICE IS BELOW $15 MILLION PER YEAR. :harumph:

He didn't start the season. So passing yards you can take off the stat list. Other than that, it is awful. How many attempts does he have though? It doesn't matter. I hope he gets off season as a projected starter. I suppose you still draft a QB.

Tebow can pass accurately...,

I will humbly submit his completion % of 46.2 as exhibit A to the jury.

Unless accurate means the ball lands quietly between the sidelines, but still inside the stadium.

Accurate and Tebow should never be used in the same sentence. Unless it is explaining that those two words should not be in the same sentence.

He didn't do a damn thing all day. For some reason we couldn't stop McCluster for about 5 or 6 plays and that led to your only points.

So, when the Broncos win, it's cause Tebow is awesome and led them to a 7-4 record? But when the Chiefs win, it has nothing to do with Orton and it is suddenly a (wait for it) team sport?

Make up your mind, Denver fans. One or the other. Is football a team sport, or is the QB solely responsible for the won-lost record? You can't have it both ways.

Bronco fans choose to be ignorant... Whatever.

Dude completed 8 passes in 2 games vs the Chiefs.
