This paragraph by Vince Verhei pretty much sums it up:

Tebow made headlines for leading the Broncos to seven wins in his first eight starts, but in hindsight, that streak is looking much less spectacular. Only one of those victories came by more than one score, three came in overtime and none came against a team that made the playoffs. While Denver had a lot of exciting wins in 2011, none of them were terribly impressive.


At first I thought it kind of odd that he was on the sidelines praying before Denver's last drive against the Chiefs Sunday, then I realized he was just praying for Oakland to lose.

And if (HUGE IF)they win Sunday everyone will say it was because of all the injuries to the Steelers. Which of course will be true, but you play the team in front of you. It isn't like Denver is healthy, at all.

At 8-8, they don't even deserve a home playoff game.

Frankly, after the last three weeks, they do not deserve a playoff game at all. But they get one.
Giants deserve one?

doesn't matter if they deserve it, the giants are going. they do deserve it more than the other nfc east teams-but it was certainly not a good division this year.
