The Broncos won 7 regular season games with Tebow at QB in 2011. Here are the points totals conceded in those 7 wins:
15
24
10
13
13
32
10
By my reckoning that's 5 wins by the defense, 1 win by Tebow, and 1 push. The Broncos also managed to lose a game with Tebow at QB when they only conceded 7 points.
You make my point for me man. In the first 5 games Denver was allowing 28 ppg largely because their D was put in terrible positions by a turnover prone Kyle Orton. Once they got a starter who could control the clock and not turn it over they magically looked pretty damn good. You can throw the prettiest ball in the world but if it ends up in the hands of the other team then it doesnt matter, you can have the best defense in the league but if they are constantly being put on the field in their own territory they will look shitty.
