Not to mention that opposing defenses had a tendency to go into the ever ineffective "Prevent" defense late in games and he made them pay for it. He was far from being the sole reason they won and it's laughable that people want to give him all of the credit for their victories.
well, the only factor that changed between a 1-4 start and a 7-4 finish was tebow. maybe the players played better because of tebow (because that's who they wanted to play for), maybe it was luck, maybe it was a mixture of all of it. either way, tebow was the only difference.

and ok, defense put tebow in a position to win. and he did. had it been orton, it would have been a good chance they didn't win. tebow put a spark on that team. he helped win, whether directly, or indirectly. IMO.
