Tebow’s Philanthropy Abroad

November 15th, 2011 - 5:17pm by Max HensonOther posts by

After a day of practice preparing for the New York Jets and time spent answering questions about their stingy defense, quarterback Tim Tebow discussed an exciting new development taking place with his foundation and its partnership with CURE International.

“We’re building a hospital in the Philippines that we’re very excited about,” Tebow said. “Just trying to make a difference in kids’ lives and brighten their day.”

“I know this is a big game coming up and it’s a big practice today,” he added. “But ultimately that might be the coolest thing I’m doing this week.”

Broncos Brace for Quick Turnaround

November 14th, 2011 - 4:57pm by Max HensonOther posts by

The Broncos had no time to waste.

After defeating the Chiefs in Kansas City, Head Coach John Fox boarded the plane and immediately got to work on preparation for Thursday night’s game against the Jets.

“I watched our game flying back on the plane, got that out of the way,” Fox said earlier today. “When I got home I watched the Jets play New England, probably for the second half, and watched it in its entirety today.”

Quarterback Tim Tebow was in a New York state of mind before the plane back to Denver even took off.

“I am going to start watching Jets film in a few minutes when we get on the bus and try to prepare and get ready,” Tebow said after the game.

Tebow to Decker for Touchdown

November 13th, 2011 - 2:32pm by Kenny LeganOther posts by

The Broncos have struck again. On third-and-10 from Denver’s 44-yard line, Tebow threw a 56-yard deep pass to receiver Eric Decker, who caught it in stride down the right sideline and ran untouched the rest of the way into the end zone.

It was Tebow’s second completion of the day, but it couldn’t have come at a more opportune time. The pass put Denver up 17-7 with 6:44 remaining in the game. The Broncos chewed up 5:21 on the game clock on the 8-play, 85-yard scoring drive.

For Decker, it was his seventh touchdown reception on the season, and for Tebow, it’s the sixth time he’s run and thrown for a touchdown in the same game.

Tebow Puts the Broncos on the Board

November 13th, 2011 - 12:23pm by Kenny LeganOther posts by

Quarterback Tim Tebow runs into the end zone on a quarterback draw on the Broncos first possession to put Denver up 7-0 with 7:31 left in the first quarter.

The Broncos ran eight plays on the drive, all of which were runs. Running back Willis McGahee ran four times for 17 yards while Knowshon Moreno provided the highlight of the series, bringing back memories of his college days at Georgia. He took on second-and-7 at the Chiefs 30-yard line, bounced to the outside and hurdled a defender before being dragged down at the 6-yard line.

McGahee took the next carry, but he was injured on the play. He walked off with help before Tebow ran into the end zone on the next play.

Tebow, McGahee Top 100

November 6th, 2011 - 6:15pm by Stuart ZaasOther posts by

With a 60-yard touchdown burst to close the third quarter, Willis McGahee officially hit the 100-yard rushing mark on Sunday.

Tim Tebow joined him after a 28-yard carry in the fourth quarter.

It’s the first time since 1976 that a Broncos quarterback and running back both topped the 100-yard rushing mark, and the first time since 2005 that the Broncos have had two 100-yard rushers, regardless of position. As a team, Denver has 270 rushing yards on 34 carries (7.9 yards per carry) to this point.

It is the first time in Tebow’s career that he has topped the century mark, and McGahee’s fourth 100-yard game of the season.

Tebow’s 118 rushing yards represent the second-highest single game total for a quarterback in club history. Tebow now owns three of the top four single-game rushing outputs by a quarterback in Broncos annals.

He is the 18th player in Broncos history to rush for 100 yards in a single game since 1995, which ranks first among NFL teams in that span. It is the just the 16th time that a quarterback has topped the 100-yard rushing mark since 1950.

Tim Tebow fired a 27-yard pass over the middle to Eric Decker on third-and-10 to give the Broncos a 7-3 lead in Oakland late in the first quarter.

Tebow moved the Broncos into Oakland territory with a 32-yard run after he tucked the ball on a read-option play. After a short run from McGahee and an incomplete pass, Tebow connected with Decker for the touchdown.

With that score, Decker is now tied for second in the NFL with six receiving touchdowns.

Here’s the audio highlight of the scoring play, courtesy of 850 KOA.

Quotable: Denver vs. Detroit

October 30th, 2011 - 8:34pm by Stuart ZaasOther posts by

Here’s what was said following Detroit’s 45-10 victory over Denver:

Head Coach John Fox: “We’ve got a ways to go. We’ve been good at times. Today wasn’t good enough. That is a good football team coming off two losses. Two or three years ago, they were 0-16, so it’s doable. I think they’ve improved, and they’ve got some good players to help them do that.”

Tebow-to-Decker for TD

October 30th, 2011 - 5:01pm by Gray CaldwellOther posts by

The Broncos got back on the board midway through the fourth quarter, as the offense put together a nine-play, 80-yard drive capped off by a 14-yard pass from Tim Tebow to Eric Decker.

It was a screen pass, and Decker leaped over a defender before sprinting past several Lions into the end zone.

Lance Ball had 23 rushing yards on the drive, and Tebow picked up 18 on the ground himself to help keep the drive alive.

Matt Prater’s extra point sailed through the uprights to bring the score to 45-10, Lions.

Decker now leads the team in receiving with 66 yards.

Notebook: Outlook for Sunday

October 28th, 2011 - 2:55pm by Kenny LeganOther posts by

The Broncos came out to practice Friday with some lingering snow still piled up along the outer edges of the field. But that didn’t get in their way as they ran through a full practice preparing for the Detroit Lions.

Most of the team was out in full force, but there were a few players who Head Coach John Fox listed on the last injury report before gameday.

Running back Willis McGahee did not participate and Fox ruled him out of Sunday’s contest with a hand injury. Defensive end Elvis Dumervil (ankle) and defensive tackle Marcus Thomas (knee) were limited and listed as questionable for Sunday while safety Brian Dawkins (illness) was also limited but probable. Tight end Julius Thomas participated in full and is also listed as probable.

Coach Fox addressed Dumervil’s injury, saying he will be re-evaluated in the coming days leading up to the game.

“He’s been a Pro Bowl player,” Fox said. “He’s got those types of abilities. We are obviously better with him than without him. He’ll be day-to-day and a game-time decision. We’ll see how it goes.”
