How about average starting position? Which of those starting positions were a result of special teams mishaps? I think not turning the ball over certainly helps the defense |

The guy picked last in gym class

In playing this game, are we going to assume that those teams get the same Denver defense over the last six games, or are we going to go with Lars silly notion that Tebow has pep talked his way into them playing better? |

Once upon a time, there was a quarterback who couldn't have modeled Tebow any better. In college, he led his team to a national title. He nearly won the Heisman, finishing second. He left school in his junior season and was a first round draft pick. As a rookie, he took over a team that was 4-12 the previous year and 0-3 before he took over as the starter. He 'led' them to an 8-5 finish....sure, he wasn't the most accurate passer -- he only completed 52% of his throws -- but he was a big, mobile quarterback who could put up nice rushing stats to make up for his inaccuracy. He puts up over 550 yards on the ground on almost 7 yards per carry and rushes for 7 TDs himself. Hell, he even went to the pro bowl IN HIS ROOKIE SEASON. Everything that happened with Tebow happened with him -- the defense was playing better and they won games. So this guy must have been the reason they won, right? And the defense improved because of him, right? But he goes beyond what Tebow has done, since we're talking about a six game stretch for Tebow. The next year, he starts fifteen games and his team goes to the playoffs. The following year he gets injured in the first game (which they win) and has some personal issues that keeps him from playing. The following year he starts the year as a backup and then is named the starter in the seventh game. The rest of the season puts Tebow's year to shame: after going 0-6 with him on the bench and the defense giving up 33 points per game, they go 8-2 with him as quarterback and the defense gives up just 20 points per game. Hell, he even gets named to the pro bowl again! So if Tebow is a leader and a winner, then this guy must be a god. Two pro bowls, the defense has played better when he was in....and hell, unlike Tebow, he completes more than 45% of his passes (58%). Hell, this guy is sitting with a record of 25-13 as a quarterback. Teams should be knocking down his door should he ever become a free agent, right? Or could it just have been right place, right time...that the team played well in spite of his deficiencies? It might be just me, but I think that history shows that Vince Young held very small responsibility in the Titans winning. |

And same good luck? Other kickers missing game winners while his hits his and teams dropping onside kicks without getting hit? BTW, Matt Moore won three straight games with the Dolphins before they lost a Thanksgiving game in Dallas by a point. During that time, the defense has given up 10 points per game. And unlike Tebow, Moore has gotten the offense really rolling -- he's completed 70 of 104 passes for 901 yards with 7 TDs and 1 INT. Hell, even in the loss he was 19 of 32 for 288 with no picks. So I'll start by saying Matt Moore could have taken the place of Tebow and went 5-1 since he's 'led' the defense to even better numbers, and he took a team maybe even worse -- they hadn't won a game before that. |

the Vikings' defense is literally leaving Damarius Thomas WIDE OPEN. |

BRONCOS BABY!!!!!! Don't look now but they are tied for first. In a Broncos fan's mind that doesn't matter till the final whistle of the final game though... |

Merry early Christmas from the Vikings to the Broncos. That was truly pathetic. The entire defense minus Jared Allen should go elsewhere. Also, what the HELL was Ponder thinking on that last pick? sigh, being a Vikings/Colts fan sucks this year. But that game had to have been the worst. |

Only one thing explains it: Tim Tebow made a pact with the devil. |
