Also it seems his receivers are cured of drop-itis later in the game.Comment

I still don't get why Tebow is consistently great in the fourth quarter.
I don't watch these games, so I'm curious what your opinion is on it since you're seeing it every week (I apologize if this was already in the thread).
Are they switching up how they call plays because it's late in the game? Does the defense really give up that much?
I just find it amazing that a guy can go 3-16 (John 3:16 lulz) for three quarters, and then 18-24 in the 4th and OT. I remember watching the Jets game: they seemed to run a lot more spread sets on that last drive and just let Tebow create plays.
Why not all game like that?
Mike Golic seems to be the only person on ESPN with sense, or the only one able to speak his mind, because yesterday he said "I guarnatee you that if the Bears played defense in teh fourth quarter like they had all game, instead of switching to the prevent to protect their small lead, we wouldn't be talking about another Tebow comeback right now. And unless the other teams in the NFL realize that they need to play the Broncos the same way throughout all four quarters this kind of thing is going to continue to happen."Comment

A defense can not merely remain the same once Tebow Time starts.Comment

Tim Tebow’s pastor says God is the reason Broncos are winning
One of Tim Tebow's pastors in Colorado knows why the Denver Broncos are winning games in miraculous fashion every Sunday. It's not because of Marion Barber gaffes or defensive interceptions or even because of the sheer, undeniable greatness that radiates from everything Tebow. No, the team's good fortune is all due to the man upstairs.
TMZ spoke with Pastor Wayne Hanson, who runs Summit Church in the Denver suburb of Castle Rock. He attributes the success of Tebow and the Broncos to God's favor. The website writes:
Hanson tells us, "It's not luck. Luck isn't winning 6 games in a row. It's favor. God's favor."
Pastor Hanson adds, "God has blessed his hard work."
We asked Hanson if Tebow would be winning games if he wasn't such a strong believer -- and the pastor replied, "No, of course not."
It's a statement that some will see as ripe for mockery. At least three times this month I've heard someone say, "If there is a God, I'm not sure He cares who finishes first in the AFC West." But Tebow and Hanson believe their prayers are heard by their Lord. It's why belief in a higher power is called faith. Who is anyone to say otherwise? Do I personally think God made Matt Prater's kick go through the uprights or caused Marion Barber to fall out of bounds instead of staying on the field? Not really. But what I believe, or what you believe, doesn't matter. Tebow believes and that's something to be lauded, not ridiculed.
In a poll accompanying the TMZ post, readers were asked to choose the world's most influential Christian. In early balloting, Pope Benedict XVI narrowly edged Tebow, 55 percent to 45 percent. OK, mock that one all you want. But with a win over Tom Brady and the New England Patriots next week, I'm guessing Tebow wins that poll.Comment

As I've already said, it's because these stupid fucking teams play prevent at the end of the game and I could probably make a prevent defense look bad. Add Tebow's great scrambling ability and it's a recipe for disaster.

I know for a fact BB won't do this on Sunday, so this game should prove alot.Comment

Not only did they go to a soft Cover 2 look they executed it terribley. Tillman missed a tackle, Jennings was playing inside leverage for God knows what reason on some plays, etc. For whatever reason the Bears chose to go away from what had worked all game long in crunch time. Matt Bowen was on WSCR the other day talking about it. The Bears all game were pressing WR's and more willing to play Cover 1(which they have been playing a lot of this season) to force Tebow to try and fit throws into tight windows all game...which he can't do...or isn't willing to try doing at this point. In the finals drives the Bears changed literally everything they had done all game long that had worked. OT they went back to it and stopped them forcing a 59 yard FG that they hit.Comment
