Patriots Crush Broncos, Tebow Time Over

Tom Brady Tim Tebow

Tom Brady threw for 6 touchdowns and a playoff record 363 yards in a 45-10 pounding of Tim Tebow and the Denver Broncos. During the last week there was talk of manifest destiny. Due to his religion, leadership, skill etc. it was speculated that Tebow might have the ability to lead Denver to an improbable win over the New England Patriots.

In the end what is supposed to happen when a dramatically better team (New England) plays a dramatically inferior team (Denver). Bill Belichick proved once again that the Patriots, who under his leadership have already won three Super Bowl rings, are truly one of the most elite teams in the NFL.

Without even two minutes gone on the clock, the Patriots were up by a touchdown. Without even six minutes on the clock, they were up by two. With 21.5 minutes to go in the first half they were up by four touchdowns for a total of 28 points. he also had a fake out where he punted the ball for 48 yards with 2:52 left to play.

The second half is where Tim Tebow is supposed to live, but fans expecting another second half miracle were left completely lacking. Tebow had no touchdown passes, completed just nine of 26 passes for 136 yards and was limited to a total of 252 yards for the whole game.

Patriots coach Bill Belichick had this to say about his team,

“I just can’t say enough about the players today,” said Belichick, whose postseason record improved to 16-6. They stepped up and they made a lot of big plays throughout the game for 60 minutes. We got contributions from everybody. I’m really excited for them. They deserved it. They’ve worked hard, they’ve put up with me, so they deserve this.”

Did you think Tim Tebow would beat the odds and beat Tom Brady?

    Tim Tebow does not take the glory for the wins and always gives the glory to God, but the human race gives the glory to Tim Tebow and our God is a jealous god and He stopped that, anyone who knows the Bible should know exactly what happened and why.Tim Tebow is a very humble young man and I wish him well and nothing but success in all that he does.

    Of course religion does not beat qualifications. I guess the US in general is clinging to religion since it has given up on the hard work of preparing. It lives beyond its means, does not educate its people, etc.

    Denver fans have elevated Tebow to ridiculous heights. There is no way he can live up to these expectations. Tebow didn't lose this game all by himself, he wasn't on the field when Brady threw 6 TD passes. That said, no I did not think the Broncos (or the Donkeys as I like to call them) would beat the Pats. Thankfully, Bronco mania will be quiet in this neck of the woods until next season.

    Tim Tebow has taken much flack for not being ashamed of being a Godly man, which is sad. The truly unfortunate part of all of this, is that he is the role model that ALL professional athletes should aspire to be, but most of them are either too full of themselves, their drugs, and their money OR simply not bright enough to realize it. Maybe Tim Tebow is not the quarterback that he would like to be, but he is youn and that may very well change. That being said, because of his faith and his attitude, he will be very successful at whatever he ends up doing with his life. If there were more Tim Tebows in this world, it would certainly be a much better place.

    He's a football player who doesn't support women and gay rights. Nothing to see here.

    Jealousy is such a petty emotion that a supreme being should never possess. I know people who have gotten over that.

    Ramon Cabrera Read your Bible and learn for yourself, don't take my word for it and I will not argue the scriptures with you. God says He is a jealous God i just repeated it. Have a wonderful day!
