Tebow uncertainty
The Denver Broncos signed Peyton Manning to a five-year $96 million contract, leaving Tim Tebow in temporary limbo. John Elway, Denver’s head of football operations, said Tebow was disappointed but would not break from his positive attitude. Just goes to show you there is no loyalty in business, it is all about making the best return and Denver believes they can do it with Manning even though Tebow turned them around to a division title and even beat the Pittsburgh Steelers in the playoffs last year. The talk is that Tebow may end up back in Florida, where he won two BCS national championships and a Heisman Trophy, playing for the Jacksonville Jaguars.

Believe: Tebow wins with 316 passing yards
The big question is – would God really favor one football team? He seems to as Tim Tebow put up 316 passing yards yesterday to beat the Pittsburgh Steelers in the NFL wild card playoff game in “Mile High” stadium.
The 316 yards matches an often quoted Gospel passage John 3:16 which reads, “For God loved the world so much that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him may not die, but have eternal life.”
I watched most of the game on TV and caught a glimpse of a sign held by a Denver fan which read “Believe, Believe, Believe” and Denver fans are believing today. I mean, what are the chances? Going into overtime, Tebow needed 80 yards passing to reach the 316 number and got it in one strike to Demaryius Thomas to seal the win.
Look out New England Patriots, you never know what God has in store this Saturday.
Tebow stumbles, but still encouraged
Tim Tebow lost his second game as Denver Bronco’s quarterback, against the New England Patriots yesterday 41-23, but the Patriots had help with two turnovers and a muffed punt. Don’t count Tebow out yet. This home-schooled son of Baptist missionaries is still likely to make the playoffs and who knows how far he can carry the Broncos with his belief, especially after encouragement from Patriots coach Bill Belichick.
