08:04 AM ET 12.12 | Julius Peppers said after Sunday's game that the Bears failed to finish against Tim Tebow and the Broncos. [Peppers] and linebackers Brian Urlacher and Lance Briggs were asked afterward what they thought of Tebow's performance. The sour grapes were evident even though the team's postgame food spread was outside the locker room. Urlacher slighted Tebow's passing skill by saying, "He's a good running back." That was still more praise than given by Peppers, who proclaimed, "It wasn't anything special that he did." ... As for Briggs, he refused to differentiate between Tebow's effort and that given by Denver's other offensive players. "He played hard," Briggs said. "I respect a guy that plays hard, him and all the other 10 guys."

Peppers is right... they failed to finish.
And as a result, they got Tebowed.

Whew, I was wondering if we'd get a Tebow story today. That was close.

Guess these two guys don't think much of their own team.

The guy is doing just enough to win and not making key mistakes so I give him his props. At this point he is more of a care taker like Dilfer (WITH A TREMENDOUS DEFENSE THAT NOBODY MENTIONS) than the Hall of Famer like Montana that the media is making him out to be.

And that 1-4 start to this season was the follow up to Denver's spectacular 4-12 season last year. The drafted Vonn Miller second because they were the second worst team in the NFL.
At least 4 of Tebow's passes were dropped by the less that All Pro wide receivers playing for the Broncos.
The Bears, like other teams, gashed the Denver defense by running up the middle where Denver does not have much talent.
Jeremiah Johnson was a great movie, but he's not an NFL level running back, yet he's getting carries for the Broncos right now.
It's a great story and I'm feeling a whole lot better about paying for the NFL Sunday ticket these days to watch Bronco games.

But then, Steeler, he couldn't make his point if he included *all* of the facts.

Why isn't anyone talking about the job Fox has done with Denver. I thought he was a mediocre coach at best in Carolina...now he is showing he might be one of the best in the NFL at adapting.

NO WAY! Is Tebow and broncos beating Patriots next weekend, just wish some teams learned how to tackle, tackle, tackle! Its what its about, what keeps Tebow winning.
Pats need to tighten up defense then kick some Tebow butt.
GO Patriots!
