Holy crap, that was the best Jets vs. Broncos game I've ever seen.

Broncos win 17-13

I was bored to death for the first 3 and 3/4 quarters but the last 10 minutes or so was really good.

First time I was able to see Tebow as a pro for an entire game and I don't think anyone can question his heart.

Edit: The pick 6 in the 3rd by Denver was pretty good too.

Sanchez really needs to wake up. I'm a diehard fan, but man has this season gone downhill as of late.

Hats off to Denver.

i can see why everybody is questioning Tebow's production at the pro level...the son of a b***h can't do anything except win...

Tebow is big enough that he has a shot of actually holding up as a running QB. The man looks like a fullback or tightend instead of QB. Bodywise, he always reminded me of a white Donovan McNabb. Cam Newton has a similar body type, except he is even bigger, and Cam is shaping up to be a very good conventional quaterback so I don't think he will be taking the sort of pounding that Tebo will.

Still, Tebo has to get better as a passer because defense will eventually figure out how to handle that run heavy offense.

Interesting game to say the least. I thought the Jets had a much better offense then that. Have to rename them the Jests until Sanchez learns how to run an offense. he was awful.

I'm not a Tim Tebow fan, but I'm glad he had a good game. Denver Broncos beating the New York Jets is a very good thing.

That game was brutal. I have a hard time watching professional athletes play that ugly in any sport. Really Sanchez, could you telegraph that pick 6 pass any more? Nice containment on the Tebow TD run Jets D. If I ever see another 3rd and 9 running play designed to gain 5 yards and set up the punt it will be too soon.

It's good to see Fox realize what he has (and doesn't have) in Tebgow and be able to adjust his offensive designs accordingly. Now as to the Browns and Pat Shurmur, that's a different story........

Yep, Tebow sucks. Someday maybe he'll learn to do more than win games.

I never was a Tebow 'fan', but I never was a hater either. I just never followed him.

But now, I've become a Tebow fanboy just because everybody says he sucks! I love seeing him win and watching the Tebow haters whine. I don't know why, it's just fun!

I don't know why, either, but I feel exactly the same way!

Well at least today's game against the Bills didn't go too bad...but I gotta admit, the Jets almost gave me a heart attack during that last minute of the game.

Solid drives today though. Still need to run the table (or come pretty close) to get the wild card. Looking at the schedule, it seems doable...

On a side note, anyone see Stevie Johnson mocking Plaxico with that TD celebration...seems Plax got the last laugh on that one

I live north of Denver and I'm REALLY enjoying this!

All the self-appointed authorities who know JUST what it takes to win and that you CANNOT win unless the QB can throw about 50% of the time...they're all stewing in their own juice.

There's nothing I like better than seeing a stuffed shirt deflating, and that's what's happening with the Tebow detractors.

Of COURSE the guy needs to have a better passing game. Everyone knew when he came out of college that he needed to work on his passing game.

He had NO training camp
He had NO coaching over the summer
He had NO snaps with the first offense when the season began

Ya THINK - ya just THINK - that maybe no one should expect his passing game to be polished yet?

And I ask you this question: when he DOES have a training camp, and DOES have coaching, and DOES take practice snaps in the offseason with the first offense, is his passing game going to get worse, or better????

Right. All he will do is improve.

Question is, how much?

Don't forget that a QB is a leader as well as a passer. Tebow is one fine leader. Next year we'll know how good a passer he's going to be.

Until then, let's watch him win games, hmmmm?
