And most of Tebow's runs were designed runs. There was only a couple times he took off running on a called pass. Hell, the guy only got what 15 chances to throw the ball? I think he looked good, made some good throws. Ball needs to catch that TD pass at the end, that was right in the breadbasket. I like what I've seen from Tebow so far and can't wait for an entirely new staff to come in because these current interim coaches are morons.

I actually didn't think Tebow looked that good at all. He had the big 40 yard running play and the fluke 33 yard TD that should have been intercepted by Huff but it went through his hands to Loyd who was on the ground. After that he had nothing outside of a small handful of completions. Against a good defense (Raiders defense is horrible) the Broncos likely would have been shut out with less than 150 yards total.
They were stuck running a conservative playbook because Tebow isn't a good enough passer to just let him throw the ball around. The Raiders crowded the line and dared them to pass but everytime Tebow dropped back he had a hard time reading coverage. IMO he's never going to be a starter but may have a career as a solid backup and gadget player.
