Yeah, our 24th ranked defense was the ticket.

simply don't give a **** about that ... HE didn't win shit. His team won. His defense was spectacular. Completing a 12 yard crossing route pass against a defense that stacked the box with 9 guys because YOU'RE SO BAD and then watching Demaryius take it for a score is not impressive to me.

...and then losing by 200 points to Tom Brady the next week is not impressive to me

in hindsight, I wish Tebow (excuse me, the Broncos defense) would have beat Tom Brady, too ... cuz then the Manning era in Denver hopefully never happens and then the Chiefs or San Diego win the division the past 3 years

instead, Elway saw through all of the dipshit Christian idiot psycho fans and signed Manning (must be nice) and also found a way to flip the worst QB in NFL history for a 4th round pick (or was it a 3rd)?

Good God.

Every game was close, and Tebow would play absolutely awful for three and a half quarters but you knew that if we were within a score at the end of the game that Tebow was gonna show up and win the game. It's nice having a juggernaut offense but I enjoyed the Tebow season more than any Manning season so far.

I have no idea where you get that ranking from ... but if you're trying to imply Tebow was the reason for Denver's success that year and Tebow had anything to do with anything ... you're a god damn ****ing idiot

and if you're a Denver fan and you truly watch the games and you want to pretend the defense wasn't a bigger factor than Tebow in the "Tebow Mania" year ... I just cannot respect any opinion you have going forth about anything, ever

Tebow was god ****ing awful. And I get Denver homers wanted to "homer" him then, but at this point, are they really going to still defend him?

I have facebook archived posts from "Tebow mania" where I was certain he'd be out of the league in 2 years. Well, it only took 1, but yeah. He was that bad.

Tebow was gone no matter what he won that season. Elway couldn't stand him.

and that's because NFL defensive coordinators and head coaches are mouth breathing reeruns late in games ... and instead of stacking the box with 8 like they did for 3.5 quarters and pressuring Tebow ... they went into prevent mode and let the bumbling reerun do his Tebow shit where he ran around the pocket like a chicken with his head cut off for 12 seconds and then the defense inevitably broke down and he would manage to pull off some dipshit miracle

...he was lucky. That would have never held up. Shit, Romeo Crennel ended up ruining his career when he game planned him week 17 by stacking the box with 9 and he had the worst game I ever saw in my life ... New England did the same thing in the playoffs and it was rinse, wash, repeat

be thankful Elway was smart enough to go get Manning and that idiot in NYJ was dumb enough to give up a pick for that shit ass QB

because Elway knew he was a garbage ass "QB" (the quotes being necessary). The best thing Elway ever did for Denver is arguably get rid of bumbling reerun for Peyton ... and that's saying something, as he took Denver to 5 Super Bowls and won 2

I got the ranking from the fact that they gave up 390 points, good for 24th in the NFL that season.

You're right that Tebow was an awful passer, but he was pretty good at running with the ball, and he didn't turn it over much. We were able to keep games close, and then Tebow would pull a drive out of who-knows-where to win.

It absolutely wouldn't have worked for a second season, we would have been awful in 2012 if Tebow had stayed.

I don't disagree, but it was still awesome to watch. Luck was on our side that year and it was really fun.

...he was lucky. That would have never held up. Shit, Romeo Crennel ended up ruining his career when he game planned him week 17 by stacking the box with 9 and he had the worst game I ever saw in my life ... New England did the same thing in the playoffs and it was rinse, wash, repeat

The Steelers did the exact same thing in the playoff game and Tebow and DT went off. And then this happened in OT...

[Pasta Little Brioni]

Just like today's Broncos the defense was good against teams without an elite offense....raped otherwise

[Mother****erJones]

The ****ing Denver defense kept them in the game. If you think they weren't the factor then you don't pay attention. Tebow sucked and that defense was the key down the stretch every game.

Sadly, Elway was too smart ... as a Chiefs fan, I adored Tebow with the Broncos. He was literally the worst NFL QB I've ever seen and I've watched Tyler Palko start like 4 games.

Nah. That had been the most ridiculously entertaining season in recent memory when it happened. I wasn't even upset when we lost to the Pats. That would be like having your dog do your High School homework and then being mad because he got a few questions wrong.

Last year was it for Denver Knowmo and you know it. That's why you hid like a bitch.

I think Denver fans are over-estimating Kubiak. They want to rush more yet have 4 new OL and a new scheme. If they run a more scripted offense...that takes away a big part of what makes Manning great. If that o-line is as bad as it probably will be..they will have trouble pounding the ball. Anderson's success is partially due to defenses conceding the run to stop Manning. No Welker or Thomas this season. It just doesn't sound all that great...Manning/Kubiak seem like a bad match..stylistically. I'll be surprised if Peyton makes through the season...39 + inexperienced o-line + inability to escape the pocket.

They also dont really have a NT suited for a 3-4.

Even with Smith's ability to run... a bad o-line resulted in an injury last season.
