Didn't watch the entre game. Another amazing win, I wonder if the news articles in between printing the words Tebow, Tebow, Tebow, walk on water, etc........ will metion the defense and Prater bombing kicks from 59 to tie the game and 51 to win it.

Hate hate hate! Excuses excuses.

You know boneheaded mistakes happen often in the NFL yet they aren't capitalized by most quarterbacks.

You can hate all you want...he's a winner and you'll never understand why they're winning. You'll fire up the stats and credit the team which is fine. But he's making it happen, too. Just look at his stats in the 4th and OT.

The haters are turning me into a Tebow fanatic. I loathe you lazy motherf.ucking contrarians.

Personally Coach, for me it's more a matter of the team not getting enough recognition then it is hating on Tebow. Once again they found away to get it done. But, if it wasn't for another dynamite performance by the defense, they lose the game. Tebow was great late in the 4th nd OT, he just has to hope that the defense continues to keep them in games.

all Tebow does is credit his teammates and say that his teammates make him look better than he does. Its the media that piles it all on Tebow.

Prater deserves the game ball for this one. and Tebow was not nearly as bad as his first 3 quarter stats look. they had a short FG blocked. At least 5 passes bounced right off the recievers hands. one would have been a very long TD pass. His WR's looked totally inept the first 3 Q's.. but to their credit, they and the whole team come through in the clutch. Tebow did have a good 5-10 passes that missed the target by like 10 yards... but in that 0-11 stretch in the game, there were 4 or 5 obvious drops.

I dont get why people hate on Tebow unless they are a Raider/Chiefs/Chargers fan. all the guy does is come through when it counts.

Because he sucks and he's an annoying Christer.

The Caleb Hainne/Marion Barber Bears just lost at home to the Tyler Palko Chiefs last week.

He needed a miracle to beat the 2-10 Vikings two weeks ago.

He's played two OK teams -- the Detroit Lions beat him 45-to-10. The Jets got Sanchez'ed when they had the game in hand.

If Tim Tebow was Tebowing to Allah no one would be calling him a winner. It would be how the Broncos are winning despite the fact that the terrorist quarterback sucks.

dude is 7-1 as a starter and all you guys can come up with is that the first half isnt pretty and apparently all 7 NFL teams he and the Broncos beat all suck. eventhough 3 of those teams are still in the mix for the playoffs.

Its all BS. If he played for the Pats you'd be on your knees for him. Who cares that he's loves jesus? at least he's actually genuine about it and backs up his words with deeds.

well, can't argue with any of that!

yeah, i know he gets a lot of attention, but is anyone really calling him a good qb? denver is no world beater, but to watch the 4th q's of these games has been hilarious.

Pretty much summed it up here.

I really don't see all the hate that everyone is talking about. I just feel that the media who is doing cartwheels over the guy, should give a little more mention to the rest of the team (who has done a tremendous during this run as well)
Obviously, you can't argue with the fact that they are 6-0 with him as a starter. It's been said countless times, the guy is a trendous competitor and is getting it done. It really is a great feel good story. But just because people try to keep things in perspective, doesn't automatically make them a hater.

He started against the Lions.

They lost 45-10.

I also think he was 1-2 as a starter last year.

the media talks about tebow non stop. But everyone I've heard gives just as much or more credit to the defense, coaches, Prater, etc. They just make tebow the headline of it and talk about him more because he brings in the ratings and $$. But the rest of the team is still getting credit.

i don't see hate from anyone either. that's got to be one of the most misused words on this site.

no other nfl qb could have led denver to that dominating 13 point performance.

or inspired denver's d the way tebow did.

he's so f'king amazing with the intangibles that i want to ignore all his flaws!

That's exactly what I said. No qb can do it. You're such a woman. Why don't you just put on a dress and pout? Oh the poor kicker and defense don't get enough recognition in a league that blows every f.ucking QB that wins.

GTFO with your contrarian horses.hit. Like Tebow is going to be the guy that changes fan mentality that has been prevalent since Broadway Joe.

Seriously are you guys being blatantly retarded for the sake of it?

i have no idea what you're talking about. the defense gets plenty of well deserved recognition. pretty much everyone with functioning eyes credits the d with denver's success.

trent differ at least won a super bowl and no one talked about his "intangibles".

it has nothing to do with being contrarian. it just not falling head over heels in love with the wrong person.

Brad Johnson always gets the shaft when people start the Dilfer stuff. He was a winner too! It's like he's completely ignored. What about freaking Brad Johnson people...Brad Johnson.

It's not hate. It's just not accepting the nonsense ESPN and the rest of the media want to push on you.

They beat the Bears (minus their QB and RB) on a FG in overtime because Marion Barber doesn't know enough to not run out of bounds at the end of a game and somehow fumbled when it looked like he could have taken it all the way.

The truth is Prater deserves the same, if not more recognition for the win. He won't get it. Timmy (what adult still gets called Timmy anyway) will.
