Let's kick this thing off with my thoughts on one of my favorite athletes/people. So Tim Tebow comes out against the Oakland Raiders this weekend after a horrible performance against the Lions last week, and he has a phenomenal game. What's up with that? Well I agree that Tebow has shown to be inconsistent this season, as in the past, but he has also shown me that he is able to win games. Obviously, Willis McGahee played a huge role in the success of the Denver Broncos this week, but Tebow was a huge component of the offense as well. With 118 rushing yards and a rushing touchdown, Tebow showed that he can make plays in his own way. He had just 124 passing yards, but he also threw no picks and had two TD's through the air. Now Oakland doesn't have the best defense in the world (ranked 27th), but I don't think you can really take that away from the stellar performance by Tebow.
Do I think Tebow is a future MVP in the NFL? No way. But he has always shown passion and a winning attitude, which is an important factor in a quarterback and team leader. Now it's important for Denver to start building around him. They need to bring in a better offensive line to protect him (especially a right tackle to protect his blind side), a better group of receivers (although I do love Eric Decker), and an offensive plan that works best for Tebow. He is an awesome quarterback when he has his receivers spread out and he can be innovative through the air and on the ground. This team could really improve by focusing on how he works best in an offensive system. Ultimately, I truly think that Tim Tebow can make a difference in Denver and turn this team around in a winning direction.
