See New York Times, "Quick Strike From Tebow Helps Broncos Edge Steelers":
DENVER — Tebow Time met overtime, and overtime had no chance. Neither did the Pittsburgh Steelers.Continue reading.
Tim Tebow, who had engineered comebacks from fourth-quarter deficits to win five games since becoming the starter this season, completed a short pass that Demaryius Thomas turned into an 80-yard touchdown on the first play from scrimmage in overtime, giving the Denver Broncos a stunning 29-23 victory Sunday in their A.F.C. wild-card game. It was the first overtime game since the N.F.L. established rules last year that would allow overtime to end with just one team possessing the ball only if that team scored a touchdown.
Fittingly, Tebow, who has defied conventional wisdom and the best intelligence about how football is meant to be played, turned the rule on its head. He pulled the trigger. And pulled off another Tebow miracle. Now the Broncos can prepare to visit the New England Patriots next Saturday. The Patriots went into Denver on Dec. 18 and defeated the Broncos, 41-23.
