    Groening has his chance but he was too far ahead of the curve.

    This article on SI actually details that Tebow is a big reason for Denver's success: http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/201...p&sct=hp_t12_a
    It uses a complicated QB rating but the truth is that Tebow's TD per touch is higher than anyone in the NFL right now (22 TDs in only 368 touches, 13 passing, 9 rushing). His interception rate is the lowest of any QB in the NFL right now. He's only lost one fumble. This QB rating they use showed he outperformed every other QB in their 5 wins and sucked in the Detroit game. It may be ugly but it isn't magic when you don't turn the ball over and get a high percentage of TD plays.

    I'm guessing he asked to be released do he can sign with Houston. It's been talked about all week. We'll see.

    Well, the Texans say they don't want him. But now, Miami has released Rosenfels. He could end up in Houston, but the Texans insist they are set with Yates, Clemens, and Delhomme.

    Of course they would say that, they don't want to look like they signed Delhomme for nothing.

    Between McNabb, Delhomme, and Rosenfels I'm not sure which one I would rather. Can I choose option D,

    Denver now tied for 1st place in the AFC West. Team effort because the defense was not that great until the big INT. That QB who shall go unnamed played pretty darn well in the second half. Threw some nice long balls.

    Yeah, he played pretty good today. 10 of 15 passing, 202 yards, 2 TDs and 0 INTs. Ended with a QB rating of 149.3. That seems pretty good to me.

    I hate that just because they are playing absolutely shit teams right now and their defense and offensive line finally decided to do what they were paid to do, it's all fuckin' Tebow or something... Orton would have been just fine if they would have actually ran the ball while he was QB.

    It is not like Tebow created the schedule or did he? Orton had his chance and he failed, why you bring that up is beyond me. I know you dislike the dude but that does not change the fact he is now 6-1 as a starter this year.

    I bring it up because of this:

    The Broncos, with Tebow at QB, have beaten one team with a winning record (the horribly overrated and imploding Jets). Talk to me when he beats some good teams with his dumb ass offense. :rolleyes:

    You know, instead of getting sacked 7 times and turning the ball over twice the one time he actually played against a good team.

    I watched the whole game. They didn't ask Tebow to do as much today but he did make some really nice throws downfield. Some of those guys were wide open but he put it on the money. I defnitely see improvement in his passing but still much more work is needed.

    You can't ignore Tebow's effect on the running game. The threat of him taking off on the option or a bootleg forces defenses to be honest and account for an extra player on offense. You should know that from watching Pat White at WVU. They never had to worry about Orton running so the defense could cheat to the RB. It certainly is a team effort but Tebow's running ability helps the overall running game and his lack of turnovers is helping the team.

    Agreed. He has been improving, that much is very evident. Though he still has a long way to go. However, making him the starter, throwing him in the fire, and forcing him to improve his passing has shown it's had an effect. He's making strides and hopefully will continue to do so.

    I just can't wait until Elway trades him away so they can draft another QB. Gonna be hilarious.
