NFL – Tim Tebow Makes His First NFL Playing Time With Denver Broncos
The NFL is not too big of a stage for 2010 No. 1 NFL draft pick. The Gators graduate made his very first touchdown in the last play of the Broncos appearance against the Cincinnati Bengals last Sunday.
Although Tebow’s team lost, he was able to get into the end zone on the final play of the 33-24 loss against the Bengals. There was a lot of booing when he first came onto the field sometime late in the third quarter. It seems as though football fans in Ohio still have not forgotten what Tim Tebow did to both Ohio State and the University of Cincinnati in not so distant bowl games. He had completely torn down their defenses with a very nice passing raids back when he was one of the most dominant quarterbacks in college football. Now as a pro, he should be able to find a spot among his teamates.
And yet, despite all the boos, the fans that had filled the Paul Brown Stadium in Cincinnati Ohio, knew very well that they were experiencing the debut of one of the players that are expected to make it to the very top of the game. Tebow has still to prove that he can keep up with the huge learning curve. In his debut, Tebow completed 8 of his 13 pass attempts and moved the ball (considering he only played one quarter) for 105 yards. And sure, those of you who want to be a bit more severe with the newbie will say that he completed his passes coming on dump-offs and against a very soft defense. Sure, but heck, on the final play Tebow went out there and ran 7 yards for a touchdown and manage to fly over Kyries Hebert, the last standing Bengals safety.
Perhaps it was all the attention that Tebow was getting, but one thing is for sure: Orton was at his best last Sunday. Orton ended last season with 3,802 yards and 21 touchdowns. He had a completion % of 62.1 that is a pretty good improvement over his 57.8 career long mark. He completed 8 of 13 attempts for 84 yards and two touchdowns against the Bengals. Sure, he might not be as famous or be such a merchandising and marketing strong name as Tebow is already. But he made it very evident that at least for now it is him, and not the rookie who is going to be leading the Broncos offense.
The Denver Broncos will be opening their NFL Regular season on September 12, 2010 vs the Jacksonville Jaguars. As of press time, the Jaguars are a -2½ point spread favorite for this first game.
