All of this on Jan 8, the three year anniversary of Tebow wearing John 3:16 in the 2009 National Championship Game which sparked 90 million Google searches for John 3:16.

The Arranged Marriage

You’ve read it all in the past few weeks. Since Tim Tebow became the starting quarterback for the Denver Broncos, he has become the preferred topic of discussion.

He’s made us rethink our views on faith, religion and the quarterback position — not necessarily in that order. But forgotten amidst all of this is that John Fox, the Broncos head coach, has done a magnificent job under the circumstances.

This week in an interview with Jeff Darlington, the Broncos coach proclaimed: “If we were trying to run a regular offense, he’d be screwed.”

It’s not a slight against Tebow, but spoken like a coach who is willing to accept his quarterback’s shortcomings and embrace the challenge of winning with him.

Fox could have easily run out the same game plan before Tebow was promoted, set him up to fail and get back to running the team with the quarterback he wanted.

Instead he’s hell-bent on finding any way possible to make Tebow succeed. Football is a game of survival, especially for coaches. For Fox, Tebow is a means to his own goals.

And so the option offense has returned, and the Broncos somehow won a road game last week with their quarterback completing just two passes.

Ask anyone about Tebow, and most will tell you that this story will likely have a very short shelf life. But you have to appreciate how hard John Fox is working to extend it just a bit longer.

He might not like it. But in this arranged marriage, he’s a willing partner and that’s something to be respected.
