He won, plain and simple. Took the Broncos to the playoffs for the first time in years and got past divisional round in standard Tebow fashion.

I guess the other 52 guys on the roster had zero to do with that, right? Standard Tebow fashion was let the defense play lights out for 3.5 quarters and then pull something out of his arse. Usually getting to the 40 yard line and let Prater kick a 50 yard field goal.

You let the fact that they made the playoffs cloud the fact that they went 0-3 to finish the regular season 8-8, and needed the Chargers to beat Oakland to even make the playoffs.

Anyone who thinks Denver would have been in the Super Bowl last year with Tebow is deluding themselves.

I thought it was pretty obvious Elway didn't want him around, even after winning a playoff game.
That didn't help him.
The media circus that surrounded everything he did didn't help either.

All I can say about Tebow is that he was a winner in college and had a good season in Denver in his only shot. Would have like to have seen him with a team that gave him another opportunity. Not a great QB at all, but had skills and played hard every down. Unlike a lot of other players.

Never once did I claim that. But let's not forget they got curbstomped in the Super Bowl by a better team...per usual for the infallible Manning who people claim is the whole team, same as Brady, Brees, etc. The QBs are held to a higher standard than any other position in football. Fact.

The Broncos also started 1-4 before Tebow started, and went 8-5 with him. All I'm saying is every time give me a guy with heart, that does the right things, and that wins over a guy with great stats but nothing to show for it like Romo, a shitty attitude like RG3, or someone that will never get the job done like Hoyer, Geno, or Cassel.
