Tebow was phenomanal coming out of high school as a 5 star recruit, he was one of the most decorated players coming out of college as a true winner, and now all he is doing is winning. The kid is a winner and the nfl should not try to make him fit a mold of a "qb". just keep riding him to wins

You writers need something to write about and picking up on the Tebow craze is one way. Any high school QB could have completed those passes against the Vikes secondary. Viking offense did more then enough to win, but where was the defense?

The TEAM keeps winning. Not just Tebow. The sooner people realize that the better so we can stop the fascination with this guy. Tebow didn't intercept those passes. I think it's great his TEAM is winning, but again he is average at best. Nothing against the guy at all I just wish writers would stop giving him all the credit like he's the only one playing.

My daughter could have thrown those Tim Tebow TD passes Sunday - the receivers were wide open!! Gerhart is the running back of the future -trade Adrian now - hes way overpaid!

I would have liked to see Joe Webb in at cornerback on a few of those plays...even with no practice, I think he could improve the quality of our D.

If Tebow had Harvin catching the ball and running for all those extra yards, imagine how impressive Tebow would look.

gowildcats, R U NUTZ. Gerhart had one decent game. He is no Peterson, and will never be a consistent starter on any NFL Roster. And don't forget, many of Ponders little 5 yard passes to Harvin could have been thrown by your grandma as well. Harvin was the star yesterday.

All you lala landers make me laugh, as I told you at the beginning of the year this team was going to go 4-12 at best and now it looks like it will be 2-14, Ponder is a WEAK armed QB who will be throwing interceptions on OUTS all of the time, it takes to long for his ball to get to the receiver and the defense will jump the route all of the time or have way to long to adjust to the ball, he CANNOT ZIP the ball, so he will NEVER be a great QB, he will ALWAYS throw pick 6's on OUTS and he will only get 1 out 10 touchdowns passing in the red zone for his CAREER, as long as it lasts.

Lets face it the Vikings secondary gift wrapped this win for the Broncos. Look for the mystique to fade when the they loose to the Bears next week and are dismantled by the Patriots the following week

I love it when guys like Tebow defy the 'experts'. There are far too many sports media guys that love hearing themselves talk. I miss the days when they just reported on the game. Guys like Brent Musberger are a thing of the past. I can barely stand to watch the highlights shows because the sportscasters think they are the main attraction.
