THE CLOCK HAS STRUCK MIDNIGHT!

This Denver Broncos season is one that none of us will soon forget, but have any of the questions about the teams future, been answered? Tim Tebow has proved us all wrong and made a lot of us in the media eat our words from week to week. I have said from the beginning that I do not beilieve that Tebow is the long term answer at QB for the Broncos and I stand by that statement today. Tebow showed improvement each week and found a way to win when no one thought it could be done. His intagables is what makes so intriguing, while his relationship with God seems to be his #1 priority, and a big reason so many people are drawn to this young man. 

Tim Tebow is not the only reason that this Denver Broncos team seemed to excel after the Kyle Orton experience was over. The Broncos defense stepped up to the challenge when Tebow got the starting job, and seemed to be motivated from the always up beat and positive attitude of Tim Tebow. The defense did their part to keep the game close and allow the offense to work that "Mile High Magic" in the 4th quarter and overtime periods to bring the AFC West title to the Mile High City. Another factor in the Broncos success and in my opinion the biggest contributaor to the team was RB Willis McGahee. McGahee carried the team when the young QB clearly struggled to get the passing game going, McGahee rushed for just under 1,200 yards on the season. Tim Tebow is the MVP of the team for the way he was able to rally the troops but without the threat of Willis McGahee this team would not have won the AFC West.

So now that the cinderella season had come to an end, what does the team do from here? Draft a QB or bring in a veteran to create a competetion for starting QB job? The Tebow-maniacis will say that he has earned the starting job in 2012 and I wouldn't say their completely wrong, but in my opionon the team knows that with the NFL turning into a passing league, they need a consitnet QB that can get the job done week in and week out. I would also like to thank Tim Tebow for taking all of us on this ride, and thank him for showing professional atheltes what it means to be a role model for young children. He is truly a role model for kids and should be celbrated for that, he is a man that young men can look at and see that you don't have to be covered in jewerly and tattoos to be the big man on campus. 

Thank you again Tim Tebow and the entire 2011-2012 Denver Broncos for letting myself and many others cover the amazing ride that you've taken us on, I can only hope next year will be as good as this one. Although I do not believe he can carry this team to the promise land, I do beileive he can and will be a role model for kids world wide for many years to come and that is something you can't say about 90% of professional athletes. Catch me on Mile High Sports Radio M-F 6-7 am on "The Mile High Morning Rush" or I'd love to hear from you via Twitter I am @JoshuaDover and I look forward to hearing your take on the wild ride we were all a part of.
