And he's 1000x more likely to be sitting at home next weekend.

Great points and very well-stated. Not enough attention will be given to the fact that the Pittsburgh's corners have stunk for years, and missing Woodley, Keisel and Hampton were totally devastating.

The Bronco's really are confusing teams. That is their thing on offense and it's amazing how many of the teams really are struggling with it.

Have to expect a smart coach like Belichek will keep them in order.

You sayin Tomlin isn't smart?

That's why I wish they could have drawn someone else in the next round than NE and prayed that someone else upset them. Denver is my team in these playoffs but I see absolutely no way they beat the Pats next week. I really think Denver would have a chance against Baltimore, if only because I really don't trust Flacco.

Are they really struggling with it though? Before this game, the Broncos only really put up points on awful defenses like New England and Minnesota.

Denver really game planned well and ran a lot of 7 and 8 man protections. Eight man protection schemes are non-existent in a lot of offenses today. But what it did was give Tebow a lot of time in the pocket, really simplified the reads and allowed his receivers to run deeper, longer developing routes that got more separation because of that extra time he had. Their coaches understand that they can't expect to spread teams out and have Tebow shred teams with accurate anticipation throws. Their passing game is built off creating big plays on play action and by keeping a few extra guys in pass pro, it allowed them to do that effectively.

Anyone criticizing Tebow needs to realize that he's basically a ******* rookie. I've never seen a player so overly and unfairly criticized despite getting his team to the playoffs and winning a game. If you want to judge, judge the overrated D for giving up a two TD lead or McGahee for fumbling, but don't slight Tebow because you have some bull **** agenda. He played some very good football today and while yes he still does stuff that makes you want to scream, he beat a very good Steelers D today who doesn't give up yards like that very often.

why are you so angry

But seriously though atheism is at an all time low after today.

They've been "effective" on offense. They haven't scored a lot but teams are letting them have the ball for far too long and not forcing anywhere near enough turnovers. It actually looked like teams had figured them out in the past couple of weeks, which makes the Steelers effort even weirder.

316 yards passing for Tebow

31.6 yards per completion

31:06 time of possesion for the Steelers

Big Ben's interception was on a 3rd and 16

Don't forget the 66 yard field goal the Steelers passed on...

Their kicker wears the number 6...

666

Demaryius Thomas' birthday is December 25th 1987

The Denver Broncos season average in total offense: 316 yards per game

Oh yeah Eddie Royal had 3 catches average 16.3 yards

Believe bruhs...believe!!!!!!!!

Hilarious image! I was excited to see the new overtime format, with both teams getting the ball. Then BOOM, the 3:16 QB ended it on the first play.

I have to admit, this guy is a lot of fun.

I'm sure the opponent and the defense didn't have anything to do with it. I swear the reason why some people can't give Tebow any credit is because of people on the other side wish to make him into a god. This is the first time the guy played four full quarters yet some people want to give him full credit for the team's success. It's ridiculous.

I didn't get the chance to see the Lions' game last night, but I can tell you Matthew Stafford is about 1000x the passer Tebow is.

And what reference do you have for he wouldnt "normally" make that throw? He lost his best receiver early in the game and with guys that would be #3 receivers on other teams beat the #1 defense on deep balls.

Give Tebow Calvin Johnson and give Stafford the guys Tebow has and we would see a huge difference in both teams records right now.

No one wants to make Tebow into a god, that's just not it. There's a huge segment of society that have been waiting for a high character, high quality, hard worker to achieve what he has. He's not back down from his faith, he hasn't run from it, and he also hasn't forced it on anyone.

The people who are demonizing Tebow for being a Christian are the ones who are really causing the ruckus and constantly talking about how bad he is, and how he can't play. It's sort of like one side or the other ya know, it's crazy crazy.

Truth of the matter is, I like watching Tebow because it's exciting. It's U-G-L-Y to watch sometimes, okay most of the time, but there's something about his charisma and his ability to just win. I know that's so overused but he's got his team believing in him and that makes such a huge difference in wins and losses in the NFL.

It'll be interesting to see what he can do in his first full season at the helm, if he even gets that shot. I am sick of all the haters, Colin Cowherd, and people all over ESPN radio making themselves look so foolish because they're not capable of saying, you know what, I was wrong on this one. I don't like what I see but he's pulling it off somehow. They're all just acting like cry babies, and it's getting really annoying.

This is the thing that is overlooked. Stafford looked pretty piss poor in that game against the Stains, not even hatin. He was underthrowing almost everything, and just putting it up there and Calvin was saving his bacon. When 1 dude is 40%+ of your receptions and yards, it's not the QB, it's the WR. People know where you're going, they're trying to stop him and they can't.

I really want to see Stafford without Calvin, because he is right now the best WR in the NFL, and it could be a while before we see someone on his level again.

I am far from a Tebow-hater, and watching his games this season has been very entertaining. Having said that, I'm still convinced that he isn't a good QB and I believe that the sample size his career has generated thus far from a W-L standpoint will not reflect his ultimate body of work. Half the fascination with this guy is because of his penchent for these "miracle" games, or however you want to phrase it. That begs the question: Why are the things he's doing so miraculous? It clearly can't be because he's good and the wins are expected of him. It's because he's a cherub of christian justice. It's because he's Mr. All-American boy. It's because he's the ultimate underdog who's continually beating the odds. It's because he embodies everything the public has been craving in a professional athlete and is succeeding to boot. Let's just call a spade a spade and enjoy the ride, because it will come to end.

What reference do I have? I don't know, maybe just a 46 percent completion rate.

You say he lost his best receiver, yet he still had a receiver go for over 200 yards, and calling the Steelers team that played yesterday the No. 1 defense in the league is a little misleading. They were missing five long-time veteran starters most of the game. They have the best pass rush in the league, yet had none yesterday.

This is Calvin's fifth year, and he's never been nearly as good as he is this year. He's put up good numbers in year's past, but he's always been monstrously inconsistent.

And by the way, Stafford threw for nearly 3,500 yards to receivers not named Calvin Johnson.
