Thread: Will We Win With Tebow?

Well?

Honestly, I think theres a good possibility that we start chalkin up some Ws, in spite of the fact that we have a tough schedule.


If Tebow can come in cold and put up 14 pts without snaps at practice against a very good SD defense, I think theres a good chance this team improves quite a bit.

I am not callin him the savior, but I AM believing he will make a big difference.

QBs like Tebow spread the defense out deep.

As long as he can buy time and extend plays, much like Cam, the defense needs to stay deep.

This leads to short passes or runs to be big plays.

What will it do to his psyche knowing hes got the backing of the coaches and team, vs going in for Orton on an injury?

I believe it may settle him down a bit, and help him focus.

If they game plan him well, he will get out of the pocket alot.


McGahee has hit a stride, or I believe more accurately we should say the Oline seems to be hitting its stride.

Three hundred yard games on our team is a big accomplishment for Willis.

I believe we will put up points with Tim, and I believe he will make progress.

How much of an impact that progress translates to points and wins.....remains to be seen.


But Im looking forward to finding out, and Im sure our defense is as well.


If we play with a lead.....I think our defense becomes that much better.


Whaddya think? Translates to wins?


I believe Tebows game with some improvement will indeed.

One can hope. I'm cautiously optimistic.

tl;dr, but yes, bye

His ability to extend plays (and extend drives with his legs) is really going to help the defense. Hopefully it will help shorten the game and keep the D off the field.

In the small sample of games we have, TT has clearly been able to put up more points than Orton.

Still, I'm not sure we have enough talent to win consistently. But TT gives us a better chance to win.

You can't deny his intangibles and everyone on the team seemed to take it to another level with him in there. He can't make the throws at this point but I'd sure like to think that somehow he'll get there.

I'll be happy with wins, but I expect the losses to be competitive (except against New England, but who knows?). The most important thing is seeing what we have so we know how to approach the next draft.

It's obvious that teams are going to game-plan for eliminating what Tebow does best.

Chargers Safety Eric Weddle said in an interview that the way to defend Tebow is to put 8 men in the box and try and prevent the run and dare him to throw deep to his WRs (who would be in single coverage).

If he proves he can beat such coverages "then good for him. But make him prove it." They didn't do that in the Chargers game because they had the big lead at that point and were in prevent defense just trying to prevent a quick score. Without the strip of Phillip Rivers the Broncos don't get the ball back and no chance for any Tebow late game heroics. Chargers run out the clock.

So we'll get to see what Tim can do against an 8 man box. At least it's got to be more exciting than watching Orton. And that's a surety.

So you're going to see teams trying to prevent Denver and Tebow from running the ball, make Tebow stand in the pocket and deliver the ball; which is something he doesn't do well. But, he's going to have to learn sometime, so why not now?

I hope to see Tim buy time with his legs in the Pocket or outside the pocket so long as he doesn't go past the line of scrimmage and taking off running. Right now if you see Tebow taking off running its probably due because he didn't make the correct read or missed throwing to the open receiver.

This scenario will probably drive John Fox crazy and postpone Tebow's development of learning to become a pocket passing NFL QB vs running the ball and reminding folks of the Chicago Bears QB of the late 60's named Bobby Douglas.

Stay in the pocket Tebow take the sacks or throw the ball away. Stand tall in the pocket and be decisive! Make teams respect your arm, your QB Acumen. Politely tell your fan base your job is to provide excitement and entertainment from inside the pocket.

brandon lloyd should stop making tough catches, because the balls should be on target. he should just give up if it doesn't hit him right in the numbers.

I think we win as much or more than we did with Orton this season!

No!

Hey, sorry to bust people's 'Tebow blowup dolls', but Tebow is going to have a rough eleven weeks and Miami might be the best chance for him to prove that he is capable. Our schedule certainly doesn't help him any and defenses are going to stack the box and force him to beat them with his arm. If he can do it, then we know what we have...if he can not, we still know and also hopefully if defenses prove as much the fans will realize as much.

We also play the chiefs twice and the vikings. We have some winnable games left. And it's not like the Jets and Bears are looking too hot either.

I agree, but Orton didnt set the bar very high, so it couldnt be any worse

Suck for Luck!!

This is an exciting time for Bronco fans. Worst case the games won't be boring.


I am wondering how McCoy dicks with the playbook. I suspect we are going to see a bit more screens. And I personally have no issues with TT taking off on a run instead of forcing a pass.

We might beat the Chief's once, but Painter had a career day against them and still lost, and no doubt they'll play tougher against us as a divisional rival. The Vikings is a winnable game, depending on what their offense look's like come game time, McFadden tore us a new *******, the Vikes have Peterson! I don't see us beating the Jet's but the Bears are still a toss up, I think if we beat the Bears it's because of our defense.
