Stephen Tulloch Video: Watch Lions LB "Tebowing" on Tim Tebow's Turf

Nicholas GossOct 30, 2011

"Tebowing" became a new phenomenon just like "planking" after quarterback Tim Tebow led the Denver Broncos to an 18-15 win over the Miami Dolphins in Week 7 of the NFL season.

As if Tim Tebow mania could not get any larger, his level of popularity has gone to another level. 

After the Broncos capped an amazing comeback from 15-0 down in the fourth quarter with a 52-yard field goal by Matt Prater, Tebow fell to the ground on one knee and appeared to be praying.

At that point the pose was called "Tebowing," and people everywhere are doing it. Even Tebow's opponents are getting in on the fun.

Detroit Lions middle linebacker Stephen Tulloch has taken notice to the new trend, and after he sacked the Broncos quarterback in the first quarter of Sunday's game in Denver, Tulloch took a kneel and gave his own take on "Tebowing."

It was only a matter of time before an opposing player did this, and I think Tulloch did it to be funny rather than really mock Tebow.

It will be interesting to see if Tebow's future opponents mock the "Tebowing" pose as well, because when someone sacks the Broncos quarterback or lays him out with a big hit, the urge for the defensive player to drop in a "Tebowing" position will likely be too great to ignore.

What do you think? Was Tulloch mocking Tebow after the sack or just having a bit of fun?
