Quarterback Rank: #31
Overall: #189
Tebow was used in certain packages throughout the season, especially near the goal line. He was effective in that role, scoring six rushing touchdowns. Tebow eventually got some starts at the end of the season as the Broncos fell out of the playoffs and Kyle Orton got hurt. Tebow played pretty well. He had a 300-yard game in Week 16 and had 11 total touchdowns to three interceptions for the season. Tebow had some accuracy issues (completed 50 percent of his passes), but just made plays with his legs and arms when given the chance. He is a playmaker and football player. Tebow came a long way from when he was drafted, making a lot of progress as an NFL quarterback. At the moment, Tebow is the top backup to Kyle Orton, who the Broncos are going with as their starter. Tebow could start at some point this season but it doesn't look good for that right now. Tebow still has a bit of a long delivery, but it is improved from his college days. He has decent arm strength and is a top athlete. Tebow might be the best running quarterback outside of Michael Vick. He does have struggles with accuracy, but should get better in that area with more seasoning.

Tebow is falling down our rankings and with good reason as he isn't going to start right now. If he starts at some point, he'll be up and down. He has potential, mainly because of his ability to run the ball. His rushing ability gives him the potential for good touchdown totals. Don't expect his passing numbers to be consistent when he is in the game. He is a better pick in keeper leagues than anything right now. |

| The Denver Broncos could look at selecting a quarterback prospect in the NFL Draft; however, they are unlikely to invest a high-round pick on a quarterback. They may do that next year if QB Tim Tebow fails to prove himself in 2012. |

| The Denver Broncos threw the ball on first down only four times in 49 first-half possessions over their last four games of the season. QB Tim Tebow did not complete any of the four passing attempts he made in this situation. |

| Denver Broncos QB Tim Tebow (rib, lung, shoulder) is unlikely to play in the 2012 Pro Bowl if any quarterbacks ahead of him drop out due to injury. Tebow bruised his chest and right shoulder and also tore rib cartilage during the team's loss to the New England Patriots in the Divisional round last weekend. He likely wouldn't have been able to play in the AFC Championship had the team advanced. No surgery is expected to be needed, and he's expected to make a full recovery. |

| Denver Broncos QB Tim Tebow (rib, lung) played through considerable pain in the team's AFC Divisional Round playoff game. At the start of the third quarter, Tebow tore cartilage on his first rib where it attaches to his sternum, bruised his lung and had fluid buildup in the plural space of his chest, according to a league source. The injuries came as the result of a hit in the pocket when Tebow was pressured after throwing a pass. However, Tebow is expected to begin his offseason training program according to schedule. |
| Fantasy Impact: Tebow is a tough dude. This explains why Brady Quinn was warming up late in the game. |

| Denver Broncos executive vice president John Elway said his plan to help QB Tim Tebow this offseason will come in concert with offensive coordinator Mike McCoy and position coach Adam Gase.

| Denver Broncos president John Elway said QB Tim Tebow has many things to improve on this offseason, but he feels Tebow can eventually work to become successful as a pocket passer. Elway is committed to helping Tebow improve on the field, even if it means working with the young quarterback himself. 'At the same age I had a long way to go too,' Elway said. He added: 'But I probably, at times, moved too much, relied too much on moving around. Hopefully I can relay that (to Tebow), because my progression as a quarterback was that I finally realized later in my career that I wished I'd learned (earlier) the fact that you do have to win from the pocket.' |
