Next up for him the New England Patriots....he should do well against their defense. However, the Broncos defense will have trouble stopping the Patriots offense. Patriots better end this Tebow madness.

Peace

Im telling you guys.
Lay some coin on the broncos to win it all. Like the blues brothers, he is on a mission from god.

Note to Tebow, should the NFL thing not work out, I want to establish an evangelical ministry with you.
God needs donations.

I don't follow sports, so I don't know anything about the guy except his anti-abortion commercial. But this song made me laugh: http://media.ccomrcdn.com/media/station ... 6_6907.mp3

what he's doing is almost the equivalent of hitting a walk off home run...literally every week.

i'm amazed by this story. i know about the pats defense....but this can't continue against that team, can it? :?

I think the Patriots are going to end this little story, and it won't be a minute too soon. I don't have any serious problem with Tebow, I always thought he was kind of lame, and probably wouldn't pan out in the NFL (I still have my doubts) but I don't hate the guy. What I HATE, is the way the media has blown this whole thing so far out of proportion. And Tebow, to his credit, has constantly been trying to remind the media that it's a team sport, and giving credit to others, but all they want is the "Tebow" story.

The Broncos have won some of these games IN SPITE OF TEBOW, not because of him. He's improving, but he needs much more improvement. This last win was more about the Broncos defense, the Bears (more specifically Marion Barber) fumbling the ball, and the Broncos kicker (his name escapes me) hitting two 50+ yard field goals. Not to mention the Bears didn't have Cutler or Forte. Yet they heap all the credit on Tebow.

And like I said, it's not Tebow's fault that the media is running this story into the ground. But it has gone past being a good story and started getting annoying. During tonight's MNF game they spent more time talking about Tim Tebow than any of the players in the game they were watching, they even broke out the Tebow highlight reel a few times. On SportsCenter it is all they talk about, so much so that in a story about the Dolphins firing their head coach (one of the few non-Tebow related stories) Stuart Scott accidentally called the Dolphins the Broncos.

I might buy into the whole Tebow thing if they were beating quality opponents, but they aren't. Oakland, Kansas City, San Diego, Minnesota and a Bears team without their star quarterback and running back are not quality opponents. The only quality opponent they played was the Jets, but I didn't see that game and have no clue what happened there. If Denver beats New England, and it's because of anything other than blind luck, then maybe I'll start thinking they're the real deal. As it stands they just seem to be setting themselves up for a very anti-climactic finish.

^^^^ I agree with this post 100%.

also need to add that his completion % is below 50, and he is averaging about 120 yards passing per game.

Well, New Englands defense is awful so they may not be a good test. I mean they just let the Rex Grossman and 'Skins run up and down the feild on them. The Broncos may lose in a shootout. I'm not sure they will play a good defense again in the regular season (if they make the playoffs).

you lose some credibility there when you dismiss the jets win because you didn't see it "and have no clue what happened there."

the jets are a decent team at 8-5 and the same thing happened there that happened in every other game. he was awful for about 55 minutes and electric in the last 5.

of course the defense and kicker are doing their jobs. and the bears certainly did their job on sunday. but the fact remains that he is one of the worst qb's in the league for 3 quarters but his rating in the 4th is 111%. that is nothing short of a remarkable turnaround and it's happened time after time this year. his td pass on sunday was really well done on his part--scrambling and knowing where the line of scrimmage was and all. i was impressed.

naturally the media is prone to blowing everything out of proportion. but what this guy and this team are doing, is really fucking phenomenal. even if they lose sunday, which they probably will, they have a dead kc team and the bills to finish out the season. 2 more winnable games.

i don't know about you but i am really looking forward to seeing this guy in the playoffs. wish this game was the flex game so i could see it.

I didn't dismiss the Jets game. I called the Jets a "quality opponent", but said I didn't see the game so I don't know what exactly led to the Broncos beating them.

Believers in Miami, Oakland, Kansas City, New York, San Diego, Minnesota, and Chicago now. And well I do have my doubts about New England, I won't say "no way" anytime soon. It really is something that's going on up here!

i'm at the point where i've stopped questioning it and will just enjoy watching the story play it. it's great for the league.

Tom Brady, after living a full life, died. When he got to heaven, God
was showing him around. They came to a modest little house with a faded
Patriots flag in the window. "This house is yours for eternity Tom, said
God. "This is very special; not everyone gets a house up here." Tom felt
special, indeed, and walked up to his house.

On his way up the porch, he noticed another house just around the
corner. It was a huge 3-story mansion with Orange and Blue sidewalks and
driveways, a 50 foot tall flagpole with an enormous Broncos logo flag
waving, a swimming pool in shape of a horse, a Broncos logo in every
window, and a Tim Tebow jersey on the front door.

Tom looked at God and said "God, I'm not trying to be ungrateful, but I
have a question. I was an all-pro QB, I won 3 Super Bowls, and I even
went to the Hall of Fame."

God said "So what's your point Tom?"

"Well, why does Tim Tebow get a better house than me?"

God chuckled, and said "Tom, that's not Tim's house, it's mine."

I'd rather have a quarterback (and I do) who is good throughout the game and has a QB rating of 123.3 overall. You don't have to break down Aaron Rodgers QB rating by quarter to find an acceptable stat. He's all day.

As for that TD pass you're talking about, a nice little bit of slipperiness, but I didn't find the overall play that amazing. Most quarterbacks know where the line of scrimmage is, there's a giant orange pylon on the sideline showing them where it is. Colt McCoy did something very similar the other night, only the result was Harrison going helmet to helmet on him after he got off the pass, and it wasn't in the red zone.

Not to mention the fact that the guy was ridiculously wide open. There wasn't anybody even remotely around him, so it wasn't some thread-the-needle pass the dude was standing in the back of the endzone.



The two guys circled in red are the nearest defenders. The guy with the arrow pointed at him (just off screen) is the receiver, and Tebow is the one standing at the 10 on the numbers. It was bad defense. It was a decent heads-up play by Tebow getting out of the collapsing pocket, but it wasn't magical, you see that every day in the NFL. And the guy was so wide open that it was ridiculous. I think part of it might have been they were too scared of Tebow taking it in with his legs, but you can't abandon your assignment and just have everybody chasing after the quarterback. Blown coverage.

Tebow asks for an audience with the Pope, who grants it. Tebow flies to Rome and the Pope gives him a tour of the Vatican, the Sistine Chapel, everything. But it's Sunday morning and now the Pope needs to deliver Mass to the 50,000 people waiting in St. Peter's Square below his window. "Come with me to the window and see for yourself," the Pope says. The two of them go to the window. Down below, an Italian guy says to his buddy, "Hey, who's the guy in the pointy hat next to Tebow?"

i love that old joke...w/ the pope that is...
when i was younger, my uncle's always told it with...
who's that guy up there with 'Leroy"...
nice...what a blast from the past...

really? you'd rather have aaron rogers than tim tebow? i'd rather have about 20 other qb's than tim tebow. that wasn't the point. that wasn't the point by the widest of margins. :?

what he's done in the 4th quarters of these games as opposed to the other 3 quarters is really fucking impressive anyway you look at it.

and the reason that reciever was so open was because tebow did a great job of extending that play to allow him time to get so open. being aware of where the line of scrimmage was while scrambling was impressive too. i've seen plenty of qb's toss it over the line or just take off and run, as he could have done there.


the point of all this is just to sit back, relax, and enjoy this story that's been playing out. don't question it. don't you EVER question tim tebow! :x :x :x
