He keeps them in the game and then gets the win in the end.

I respect and admire Tebow for his tenacity and "will to win". However, I submit that it's the very underrated Denver defense that has kept them in these games in order to put the rather pathetic offense in position to have a chance to pull it out.

Look at last nights game. Until the last drive which was a beauty, the offense had only generated a field goal the whole game since the defense got the pick 6 earlier.

Denver's defense should be the story here.

Is that the same defense Denver had in the first five games?

Right. The same defense that was 1-4 before Tebow took over? They are good, but not the whole story

I hope the Broncos keep playing the option. All this crap about how it's "not NFL football" is hooey. Nobody ever runs the option in the NFL because they are all afraid their overpaid Mommas Boys QBs will get their nails broken. It's not an "option" when the QB always gives it up. Certainly not because it's not "pro ball". Lotta malarkey. My favorite quote each week after the Broncos have won with Tebow is always, "Hell, we know they were going to run that play." Duh.

How are Tebow's peers doing? Bradford? Jackson? Newton? Freeman? Rivers? McNabb? Michael "Who Let the Dogs Out" Vick? Is he hurt? Again?

Now it's time to get inventive. Bring Orton and Tebow in Wildcat. Hell, bring in Orton and Quinn and put Tebow in the slot.
