Tim Tebow Has Three Games to Prove What He is Worth to the Denver Broncos

With the Denver Broncos' playoff hopes long gone and Kyle Orton not 100 percent, Tim Tebow will finally get a chance as the starting quarterback.  Recently fired Head Coach Josh McDaniels is the man who saw something in Tim Tebow and orchestrated a trade to move up in the first round and draft the former Heisman Trophy winner.

With McDaniels gone, one has to wonder what the future holds for Tebow in Denver.  Do the men upstairs see the same thing in Tebow that McDaniels did?  Will the new Head Coach want his own hand-picked QB?  Will he think Kyle Orton or Brady Quinn is better suited to run their offense?  Who knows?

Tim Tebow has three games to show what he has to offer and why the Broncos should be looking at him as their future at the quarterback position.  It isn't going to be easy for Tebow in his first action as a starter.  He will be going to the Black Hole in Oakland and face one of the best pass defenses in the NFL.  The Raiders have the third-highest sack total in the NFL with 38.  They also have the best cornerback in the NFL in Nnamdi Asomugha.  He's also going to face a mad Raiders team that let one get away in Jacksonville last week.  You know that defense has some frustrations to let out.

Tim Tebow is going to have to show the Broncos that he is capable of running the offense.  He is going to have to show them that he knows the playbook.  He will be expected to manage the game and not make a big mistake that proves costly. 

Like I said, it won't be easy against the Raiders, but he is going to have to make do with what he's got.  He will probably have to use his legs more often than not, but he better remember to slide before the contact gets to him.  If he plays with that reckless abandon like he did in college, then he just might not finish the game against the Raiders.
