I hate to break it to ya but your example of Sanchez and Rivers is a far cry for playoff proven QB's.

Flacco is a solid qb with a great defense and running game.

I hear a lot of people writing off BAL and TEX, which tells me more hype than reality is going into their argument.

First things first they're in for a dog fight against Foster and the Texans.

 

I seem to remember them beating the Steelers twice this year.

Michael Vick and Cam Newton.

 

 

Vick and Newton were expected to be proven NFL QB's before the draft and Tebow is trying to prove everyone wrong. Thanks for the input though.

dendogg Tebow was a first round draft choice I think that means Denver expected him to become a good NFL qb.It's not like he was a late draft choice or not even drafted.

"I said I had never seen a QB like TEBOW" that was all...... and then it was said "Cam Newton and Michael Vick"(both #1 picks overall)

Your right the Broncos sure need to believe in one thing Josh Mcdaniels did right and that is still up for debate.

My words can be picked apart just like anyones but I have never seen a QB like Tebow.

Tim Tebow road playoff record equals he will either need to be the son of god to win this game or at least have some sort of divine intervention.  It is possible because anything is possible in sports.  This line is ridiculously high -13.5.  Why?  A blow out is expected i presume but the line for the superbowl against the Giants was -12 and the Giants won.  I would take the points but I think New England wins here.

I've been looking for reasons to bet Denver (admittedly so i can root for Tebow) and there are some things to like about them in this game, but I keep coming back to the same thing....

Tom Brady is the best QB in the NFL and he's having one his best statistical seasons. Tim Tebow is in his 2nd year and he's struggled quite a bit this season - regardless of the W's.

No matter how much I like Denver's defense or think the Pats are over-rated, I just can't get past that absurd difference in QBs. No amount of points seems safe.

I wish people would leave the whole faith aspect of Tebow out of the reasons why or why not he wins or loses the game.

Believe or don't believe its his faith and he even said it has nothing to do what happens in the game.

I am sure the refs will be ready to have divine intervention for Brady if anyone taps him.

people dont realize that tebow was fighting for his job against pittsburgh.  if he played like he did the last 3 games of the regular season, elway would have been looking for possible replacements including quinn.  now that tebows got that monkey off is back, should have an easy, easy time against the pats swiss cheese defense.

Anything can happen.......but don't you think John Fox has played ALL of his cards in their win last Sunday???

Belichick has now seen everything Denver has to offer and now the Broncos have used up their ace in the hole... the act of suprise!

I hope it is close.... I like to see good football at this time of the year, but I think all the hype for a prime time Saturday night game will end up being a Tebow barbeque..... and it won't be his fault. 

Patriots win by 20+...

Is not there ace in the hole the fact they can both run and throw the ball depending on what you give them???  I mean Tebow aint no Tom Brady by all means but Tebow does have a slight advantage over most quartbacks by being mobile.  He can run and that is scary and Steelers showed they were scared of that so they stopped it.  Oh wait... they stopped the run game then got lit up through the air. 

Listen like him or not the dude is a gamer.  I KNOW TEBOW IS NOT GOOD AT THROWING!!!  But he is good enough to make the plays when you stack the box.  When you dont stack the box he will make plays with his feet.  Why do you all not see this???  Well I am fucking estatic that you dont because these 13.5 are a gift.  Oh and lets not forget Patriots Defense blows, hahahaha laugh it up cause I know I am!!!
