  35. Greatness007 says:

    I had to get on my android phone and give ya’ll this info. I was at Washington Hospital center interviewing Brian Orakpo. He only had minor issues. All the sudden a code blue went out over the intercom. A patient was watching the Broncos game. I thought we were gonna lose so I was concentrating on my job. The guy was 4 doors down so I went there to be noisy. HE was pointing to the screen. I know we were down 10-0. It was 13-10 Den. The guy was just out of breath. 3 nurses started tebowing.!!!!!!!!!!!!

  36. 3rdGeneration says:

    I blacked out.

  37. 1nOnlyTRB says:

    I am a strong tebow believer but even I am amazed every week. Amazing. Turly a magical broncos season led by tebow. Go defense. G kicker. Go broncos. TRB

  38. alexanserg says:

    LOL well how is that for amazing.

    I’m going on a limb here and saying we win the never say never moment of the week, and probably the year with that.

  39. Greatness007 says:

    This is crazy Brian Orakpo is sitting by me just laughing right now.!!!!! He said this guy has the whole Football world in his hands.

  40. Bronco_Turtle says:

    I Believe… I just don’t think Tebow will let this team lose if they are within two scores!!! BRONCOS FOOTBALL!!!

  41. alexanserg says:

    I want to know what Peppers said to Tebow after he made the stop on a QB keeper to the sidelines.

    It looked friendly.

  42. alexanserg says:

    A game like this just has to further instill faith in the defense that if they keep it close, we will win.

  43. 3rdGeneration says:

    Marion Barber is obviously an atheist.

  44. 1nOnlyTRB says:

    I mean wow just wow…tebow time even affects the other team. I mean the most improbably thing happens to make it all happen. Its truly magic, miraculous. Wtever u wanna call it. I hve never seen anything like it in the nfl. And I know I haven’t been watching football for long in my short life but wow.

    Another replay coming our way with tebow miced up and no doubt another never say never. Go broncos

  45. BroncoRoyaltyEst.1979 says:
