Judging from the posts in this thread, I caught every highlight in the 15 seconds I saw this morning.

Matt did a better job than ESPN, summing it up.

I'd take Tebow over Sanchez. He might suck but notice how the mf'er seems to be on the winning side.

Plus I don't believe Mexicans are meant to lead anything but a cartel.

Oops das racist.

Sorry..Tebow is HORRIBLE...The Jets ineptness and Bronco's semi-above average D led to that victory. Any decent 1AA QB can lead that..umm..offense. They are embarrassing.

There are a lot of horrible qb's in the league. I'd rather have a guy who can muster game winning drives than a stats queen who chokes when it matters.

I'm enjoying the hate Tebow is getting. Now you know how SEC opponents felt. He's an anomaly. Trust me.

Come on Coach..I remember your Teblow rants. I just hate he's getting credit for his opponents suckiness and running a wishbone offense that ANY Navy QB could run better. I try and put his personal dick headness out of my mind ( it's hard to do) but if he is starting in this league 1 year from now, I'll apologize and donate a bag of rice to the church of his choice.

Agree, but how much credit does he deserve? Before the final drive he had a total of 11 yards rushing and around 60 yards passing. The boo birds were out as well.

That was a case more of the Jets losing the game (trust me, I'm very familiar with this concept) than the Broncos winning.

Thank God I don't get the NFL network.

Some observations after reading this thread:

1. Sanchez sucks big time

2. The Broncos will be bad for at least 4 more years.

3. Somerfrost's avatar creeps me out.

4. People really want to believe in potato chip miracles.

Might as well send 4 or 5 bags. He's not going anywhere.

It's not like he has even moderately acceptable receivers. And he has two China dolls at RB. That drive last night was on the defense mostly but lets be real...there are quite a few qb's who would've fu.cked that up royally. The dude has nerves of steel.

And you know I think he's garbage but he has proven time and time again he has the heart of a lion. When he cried like a b.itch in the SEC championship game I mocked him constantly but at the same time respected him. His competitiveness is second to none.

I don't disagree with this. His numbers are pedestrian. But the results are that he's 4-1 as a starter with three road wins and a win over the Jets. I realize that the competition matters but the bottom line matters more. Kobe Bryant used to always say to his team to keep it close through three and he'd bring them home in the fourth. That's what Tebow is doing. To have the ability to turn it up when the pressure is at its highest and put the horrible game you've been having out of your mind is impressive. There are stats guys and money guys. It's still early but Tebow really is turning into a money guy. To do it with that supporting cast makes it that much more impressive.

King..did you just compare Kobe Bryant and Tim Tebow? I get your point, but

all that matters in sports is winning. Tebow wins. He provides leadership that even inspires teammates to play harder. They believe he'll lead him back, even if its just with his legs and a couple of throws here and there.

stats are for Fantasy leagues.

Yeah maybe there is some karma or just maybe God hates the Jets. Regardless the Broncos had field position all night long and were only able to muster 10 offensive points. For 54 minutes last night Tebow looked like he was in way over his head. They just happened to play a team last night that was more inept then them.

Not sure Al Davis would ever be smiling over a Broncos win.

Sure Tebow deserves some credit, but I think the offensive line and more importantly the defense deserves props as well. I really haven't watched the Broncos all season (and after last night won't be tuning in again anytime soon), but I really came away impressed with the defense and more notably Vonn Miller.

I bet his teammates laugh at him behind his back. I really do. They know this smoke and mirrors show won't last long in the NFL. Steve Young said it best when he called him an "embarrasment"..he really is.
