Re: OT: NFL thread 2011
You have to admit that Tebow makes Denver interesting to watch. Tebow really seems to be a running back playing QB, if he ever get his passing skills to equal his running skill, he could be an elite QB. Right now, every pass he throws is an adventure. Denver can be fine going forward if the defense plays as well as they have and continues to keep the games close. Detroit has proven that if you score a lot early on Denver, you can force Tebow into mistakes as he tries to throw Denver back in the game. Denver had a good running game and a strong defense, which are key to good playoff run, it comes down to Tebow minimizing mistakes/turnovers on offense and developing a more consistent throwing game. They are certainly more interesting to watch Colts, who wish that had Denver's running game and defense. The Colts are the example of a team who depends too much on their QB for success. They built a defense to play with a lead, not to shut other teams down, which has comeback and bit them on the ass since their passing offense has gone south and they have no run game to compensate.
