The Broncos don't rely on luck to beat the Bears. Usually it's a well-placed snowball or something.
No team relies on luck for anything, but fortune smiles upon thee sometimes. There is no shame in acknowledging such.

Yup!

And how have those respective teams/players/&cos done since then?

I for one am not jumping on the Suh bus, and you?

We beat the Vikings.

Up by 6 with the Vikings in charge....fumble and a facemask that didn't get called.

It WAS a miracle.

And Mr. Suh didn't play.

I honestly wish there were more people out there like Tebow, let's not let that interfere however with:
1) An honest assessment of the game of football.
2) People pushing the boundaries of good taste....if not crossing over into outright idolatry.
Valid points.

Considering the way the Bears have played of late, I did expect the Broncos to actually beat the Bears without needed a great 4th quarter to win...I thought the game would have already been decided by then...

We all know God was in Cincinnati helping TJ Yates beat the Bengals.
Yes, maybe He was...

(Mod edit: Sentence deleted) He is perfectly free to believe whatever he wants, but what is annoying is spouting his nonsense all over the sports channel when all one wants is to watch football!! Denver's wins have nothing to do with his religious beliefs: how would you explain that there may be more or equal numbers of players with faith on an opposing team? Why would God intervene in the NFL but leave billions of people poor and hungry???

Anyway, Tebow is overrated. The wins have been from behind because he wasn't doing a good job, the defense keeps them in it, and he finds a TD at the end - the game against Chicago was a pathetic display of quarterbacking compared to even mediocre players in the league.

God doesn't intervene. Tebow just walks the talk better than most. People starve because criminal leaders stand to prophet from such injustice.

Doesn't surprise me that some radical atheist from over the pond would hate Tebow and his God. Here in the US of A, we support religious freedom for and against.
