The only thing you said was, yeah he wasn't very good today. Today he gets all the credit though right?

Just looked, closing line was 7.5 on most sports book services. That's big for a road team, but that's not a blowout. Next week's line is going to be pretty huge for a divisional playoff game.

Edit: Early lines appear to be -13.5 to -15 for NE.

Maybe... he actually knows what he is talking about? LOL!

But Tebow did have some nice passes today. He still didn't pass or play that great overall but he did enough to help the Broncos win the game.

Tebow showed some signs today. Tough to turn your back on that.

Tebow is not a rookie, smdh

Ehh well.

Not this year.

Had a feeling it would be a close game but didn't think Tebow would swiss cheese us that badly.

The way the injuries were piling up, I think this loss may have saved us from getting slaughtered at New England lol.

Still a tough way to lose on that play, but I'm proud of the team coming back when they were up against it.

Disappointing but not totally surprising. Steelers seemed to lack that killer instinct all year and the injuries before and those received during the game certainly didn't help. The secondary let them down tonight. Should be an interesting draft.

Yep. The guy has started like 16 career games. His accuracy hasn't been great and he has a slow release, but the guy is a leader. He hasn't even had a full offseason to work as a starting qb or with his receivers either, but there is potential there whether people want to admit it or not.

I admit it, he played a great game today.

Yes you did, I was just echoing it. Had some high caliber throws today, even though the new excuse is now "Well if any qb had that time they could make that throw" when before the game he couldn't pass at all.

The Steelers have had a weak secondary for awhile and have always relied on the pass rush. Tebow had all the time in the world on some of those deep passes and honestly, I think the OL deserves as much credit as Tebow and the WR
