Tim Tebow Completes The Greatest 3 Min Comeback In NFL History But Critics Still Doubt Him?

Tim Tebow completes the greatest 3 min Comeback in NFL History yet analyst debate for 5 minutes on whether or not he can compete at the NFL level...Tebow makes every throw needed when it counts! Is that enough?..Watch the comeback here, watch the analyst debate, and then give your opinion in the comments


For 54 minutes, Tim Tebow and the Denver Broncos couldn't score.

Then they couldn't be stopped.

Tebow rallied the Broncos with two touchdown passes in the final 2:44 of the fourth quarter to force overtime, and Matt Prater's 52-yard field goal gave them an improbable 18-15 victory Sunday over the stunned Miami Dolphins.

The Broncos appeared beaten when they trailed 15-0 with 5:23 left and took over at their 20-yard line. At that point Tebow was 4-for-14 for 40 yards.

But Tebow led TD drives of 80 and 56 yards sandwiched around a successful onside kick, and he scored a two-point conversion standing up with 17 seconds left to tie the game.

In overtime, Denver's D.J. Williams sacked Matt Moore to force a fumble and recovered it at the Miami 36. Three plays later Prater hit the game-winner.

The Broncos (2-4) won for the first time in the eight games they've played on the Dolphins' field. Miami (0-6) extended the NFL's longest losing streak to nine games, leaving the status of embattled coach Tony Sparano even more tenuous.

Tebow made his first start of the season after Denver benched Kyle Orton, and for much of the game the Broncos sputtered. As Tebow walked to the sideline after one series stalled, spectators chanted his name in derision, and Dolphins players gestured to the crowd to keep the jeers coming.

Forget stats and numbers... when a QB makes things happen, he makes things happen and that is really what matters.

they should have kept tebow under manning. denver is playing the short game. they have one of the greatest quarterbacks OF ALL TIME yet they have no one he can mentor for the future. it's absolutely ridiculous.

Teboww!!! tebowww!!!

It wasn't a 3 minute comeback, it was a 5 minute comeback (that was when the first drive started). 

[lambosandferraris]

manning and Denver both want 1 thing, a Lombardi trophy. but lets face it, Peyton is 37 years old, he's not going to be around much longer. and as soon as Peyton retires Denver goes back to the 1-4 team they were before tebow. lets look at it this way, if tebow never starts Denver is lucky to go 6-10, tebow never brought out the talent he had around him and manning never signs with them. just like manning would never sign with the raiders or jags.

Manning doesn't want to be a tutor.....or he would have signed with San Francisco and tutored Alex Smith.

If you are a QB in the NFL, you better be a decent passer, he sucks at it. Like I said, I'll trust NFL coaches and GMs more than a fanboy like you. There IS a reason he is unemployed. If Rolando McClain got a 2nd chance, there is no excuse for Tebow, if he hasn't been signed, it is because of the drame he'll bring plus no real upside to risk it for.

[lambosandferraris]

wrong. he sucks as a passer. there's a difference. I like what Shannon sharp said: "he has the leading ability of ray lewis and the arm of ray lewis".

[raider1297]

He still sucks as a QB. He is drama waiting to happen(even if it isn't his fault). He is a distraction. He only won games where the D allowed 15 points or less. He had a terrible downfall to end the season, and yes I will admit it, if it wasn't for a laughable and terrible Raiders choke at the end of the season, Tebow would be remembered (his 2011 season) as an ALMOST amazing story, but choking at the end. In any other division he wouldn't have won it, and he wouldn't have won a WildCard either.

(2/2)  that's impressive no matter who you are.

[lambosandferraris]

(1/2) so you're trying to tell me that tebow is worse than the butt fumbler sanchez? i'm not buying it. I'm not saying anything stupid like tebow is better than manning because it would be retarded. what I'm saying is that when the pressure's on, there are only a handful of quarterbacks that can pull it off. tebow is one of them. in the last 5 mins of the 4th quarter and overtime he had the number 1 qbr in the league. is he the goat? no way but he took a 1-4 team to the playoffs.
