He's Baaaaaaaaack

Don't write the magic man off quite yet. Lots of experts seemed to immediately chastise Tebow for his struggles against the Lions the previous week, and I completely get some of the criticism. But remember, this guy is only a second year quarterback with a handful of starts under his belt. Let him get accustomed to the offense and almost equally importantly, let John Fox figure out how to use Tebow's unique skill set.

And today, Fox seemed to put Tebow in a lot better situations to succeed, with more read options and spread formations. Because of this, Tebow actually threw the ball decently in the win today against the Raiders, hitting Eddie Royal on a 20 yard touchdown strike and Eric Decker over the middle on a skinny post 25 yards downfield for another TD. And its not just what Tebow does for his stats, he has a big impact on the running game as a whole. Willis Mcgahee had a big game on the ground today with a few big plays coming from the shotgun read option. On these plays, the defense crashed on Tebow(who ran for 118 yards on 12 carries) giving Mcgahee room to run free for a few long touchdowns(60 yds and 25). Mcgahee finished with 180 yards on the ground. This game shows that if Fox uses Tebow's unique skill set to his advantage, the Bronco's offense can actually be pretty dangerous. So all the hate for Tebow can stop for a little. Let the guy play for a while and get his feet wet, and then make your judgements.
