That was a case more of the Jets losing the game (trust me, I'm very familiar with this concept) than the Broncos winning.
I don't disagree with this. His numbers are pedestrian. But the results are that he's 4-1 as a starter with three road wins and a win over the Jets. I realize that the competition matters but the bottom line matters more. Kobe Bryant used to always say to his team to keep it close through three and he'd bring them home in the fourth. That's what Tebow is doing. To have the ability to turn it up when the pressure is at its highest and put the horrible game you've been having out of your mind is impressive. There are stats guys and money guys. It's still early but Tebow really is turning into a money guy. To do it with that supporting cast makes it that much more impressive.
