Is anyone else lol'ing at people thinking Denver should pull tebow for Quinn if he struggles early? Did people forget how terrible of a quarterback Quinn is?

He is their only realistic chance...
About 10% without him if Ben finishes the game...

I could be wrong but I heard something on the radio about him taking 50% of snaps with first team. Did hear that right?

Don't people know how terrible Tebow is? Quinn has never really been given a fair shake.

Yea I heard that too earlier in the week, but then mort was on yesterday and he said that was a false report. Who knows though really.

While I don't want to get into the tebow argument, he took the 2nd worst team in the league and turned them into a playoff team, he obviously deserves to play the whole game. Don't forget how bad orton played with this team this year, it's hard to throw the ball when your offensive game plan is, run, run, run, only throw on obvious passing situations.
Quinn is certainly not a better option given his past games.

Not too many playoff games have been won with the qb passing for 60 yards. If Pit locks down the run Tebow doesn't give them a passing attack, at least Quinn does.

Quinn does not give them a passing attack. This is like in San Fran last year when the crowd was chanting for David Carr, the people always forget how terrible the other guy is. It'd be different if they had a quality backup, then I could see them making a halftime change or whatever, but not for a terrible quarterback. That would be a lateral move at best.

I'm not saying Quinn is great, don't get me wrong. I actually feel bad for Denver, they got themselves into a mess drafting the guy and then gave in to fans to play him and the blind chicken found some feed and set them back even further. They would have been better off dumping Tebow, playing Quinn and drafting Luck. But I guess they wanted their cut of Tebow jersey sales.

Michael Lombardi reported they played him to please the fans, expected him to play terrible obviously, and then they would be able to move on with the rebuilding process. Jokes on elway. How tebow was able to win with such a shitty football team is a shock though, this is one of the worst rosters in the league as evidenced by last year and the 1-4 start..

It is even worse those early wins where the other teams just gave it away playing prevent.

Everyone plays prevent at the end of games, no other quarterbacks do anything close to what tebow did during that stretch
If he does this with the 2nd worst team in the league, imagine what he would be doing on a good team

John Fox should be unanimously voted coach of the year. How many coaches in the league can win 8 games with a fullback playing QB? Brady Quinn is the only chance the broncos have of winning tomorrow.

Chances you get buried again? Didn't you say he had no passing attack? Couldn't throw?

One game does not make a career and I didn't get buried this time so how would I get buried again?

Yep, exactly my point with this thread, he got this team here, he deserved it, and he played the best game he's ever played by far. What a showing. He's clutch.
