Denver Broncos vs. Green Bay Packers: Tim Tebow Will Shine in Limited Action

It’s about freakin' time!

After three weeks of holding a clip board (and pretending to be a wide receiver) finally Broncos backup QB Tim Tebow will be lining up under center against the Green Bay Packers.

Mike Klis of the Denver Post has the report:

"

The Broncos are planning on running a few plays involving Tim Tebow today. And that's Tebow at quarterback. The Broncos have had the "Tebow Package" in their playbook all season long. Offensive coordinator Mike McCoy has moved the "Tebow Package" up on his playcard today against the defending Super Bowl champion Green Bay Packers.

"

Head coach John Fox should have done this right off the bat. The Broncos really don’t have a big back to get the tough yards and it came back to bite them extremely hard last week in Tennessee when they couldn’t punch it in from the 1-yard line on four separate occasions.

Tebow played a similar role last year in the beginning of the season, and it worked well. Fantasy owners of other Broncos may not like Tebow stealing TDs, but it makes sense for the team.

At 6'3'' and 240 pounds, Tebow is able to keep moving forward with tacklers draped on him. It’s also a good excuse to get the 25^th overall pick on the field.

Tebow nation has been very busy telling the coaching staff how great Tebow is and now they are getting their wish.

The Broncos rank 28th in the NFL with just 76.0 rushing yards per game. They are averaging just 3.2 yards per carry.

Expect Tebow to move the chains in the short yardage situations and expect him to gobble up a TD or two depending on how often the team is by the goal line.

Will it be enough to make him the full-time starter?
