Tebow has an escalator of $250,000 in his contract for each playoff victory assuming he participated in at least 70 percent of Denver's plays during the requisite season, according to an NFL source.
Being that he played 73 percent of Denver's plays this season, Tebow cashed in on a quarter-million salary escalator after his latest shocker -- an 80-yard touchdown pass on the first play of overtime Sunday to beat Pittsburgh 29-23 in the wild-card playoffs.
The play, according to Twitter, spawned a record 9,420 tweets per second.
Tebow could earn another $250,000 with another victory Saturday night at New England against the Patriots in a divisional-round game

It was never spoken, but, a Tebow jersey was definitely the hottest item this Christmas. Impossible to find.
I would love to see the Broncos decimate the Patriots.
I heard that joke when I was in college, I’m 40 years past college, and it still makes me chuckle!
As to Tebow, it doesn’t get any better than him throwing 316 (3:16) yards, LOL...let the haters deal with that.
And where the money will go, I think his foundation is buiding a children’s hospital in the Phillipines.
According to this article, he blew through his 2.5 mil signing bonus...guess where it went? :)

No word on what bad Ben’s bonus would have been had he won?
Had a wonderful Sunday Jan 8.....Giant and Tebow wins.
Not.
I've read commentary after Sunday's game from IDIOTS who complain that he has sent his own money overseas for missions work instead of giving it here in the USA. Just unbelievable...
“Hell probably spend most of the money on wine, women, and song, and then waste the rest.”
Hookers and Blow!
The final quarter of the game drew a 31.6 rating. Not making it up.
...and it was 3rd and 16 when Roethlisberger threw his interception.
Hilarious!!!
Holy Wow.
That makes gobsmacker #4!
