On this Sunday, the seventh day, the day of rest, Denver Broncos Quarterback Tim Tebow had yet another subpar day throwing the football. 10-21 for 129 yards, 2 TD, 0 INT. As usual, his yards per attempt and completion percentage were terrible, but he didn’t turn the ball over and his team won, beating the Oakland Raiders 38-24.
He also got it done on the ground, running 12 times for 117 yards, averaging just under a first down per carry.
The Detroit Lions, long considered the joke of the NFL, are enjoying their bye week at 6-2. The squad is coming off the thrashing of Tebow’s Denver Broncos last weekend, and the Chicago Bears loom ahead as the next opponent on the docket.
