Perhaps, in the off-season he'll shoot himself in the leg while frequenting a strip joint...and then you can feel more....comfortable with him.....

I agree, but that's no fault of Tim's. The media is absolutely ridiculous with their coverage of him. And he has been very humble with deflecting the praise to his teammates and coaches. Whenever anyone mentions "Tebow Time" to him, he says it's actually Bronco time. He also heaped plenty of praise, deservedly so, on D. Thomas.

Pretty cool that after the game, Tim spent his time with a little girl who has suffered through 73 surgeries. Most players his age would be focusing on getting laid/drunk after a game like that. He's a kid that just gets it.

Being a Florida Gator, I'm obviously extremely biased, but I wish Tim Tebow nothing but the highest level of success personally and professionally. This country needs more role models like him, and he's great for the NFL.

Aint that the truth!! He's got a murderers row of villians to get through to get to the Super Bowl. One down. If Tebow makes it through thoses guys he should be admitted into the Justice League

Belichick and Brady:
Ray Lewis possibly: Pun intended

I could not have said it any better. Except I'm no Gator fan.

Redskins beat the giants twice and would do it again. The g men just played well in th playoffs against choke artist Matt Ryan, injuries can never be an excuse, everyone out there is an NFL caliber player, 11 skins > 11 giants the two matchups speak for themselves and there is no arguing that

I like Tebow and his story is a good one as it has been said before. I think the annoyance comes from the ultra-hype from the media and fans. If Tebow can improve his passing game, he is going to be a starter in the NFL for a long time.

That said, he had a lot of help in winning this game. D. Thomas was RIDICULOUS and it is a bit sad that his amazing game will get lost in Tebow-mania. The Steelers were banged up and got even more banged up during the game. Finally, Dick LeBeau was not able to adjust to Tebow actually passing the ball (including in the game winning pass).

Tebow should be highly commended for not screwing up and for doing so in such a huge stage (playoffs). He made the right passes at the right time. And in the end, he took advantage of a huge opportunity. I truly hope Denver beats the Patriots next week, but unfortunately for them they won't be facing a hobbled up Brady.

Kinda crazy in this day and age when everyone complains that the media only focuses on the negative, here they are focusing on one of the truly good guys and there's backlash over it.

My only beef with Tebow mania is this idea that he magically just wins games. Like in the past when Tebow has struggled and the defense did virtually all the heavy lifting Tebow ends up with virtually all the credit.

I mean we don't have to break everything down to the last decimal of Pi but I'm not to crazy about being extremely vague when it comes to dolling out credit.

Good point. In those games during that 7-1 stretch, Tebow made some huge plays in the 4th qtr/OT to set up Denver for those wins, but the D carried them through the games to allow those opportunities for Tim and the offense. The media hype did little to acknowledge that, but anyone who knows anything about football understood it was just as much or more about the D as it was about Tebow.

My last word on tebow for the next few days; Beat NE, then I'll be a huge believer.
