Description
Nearly a decade after instant icon Tim Tebow’s fifteen minutes of NFL fame, we look back at the playoff victory he piloted the Broncos to in one of the most memorable NFL games of the new millennium. Winning an overtime thriller against the Steelers could’ve been the springboard to NFL super-stardom - instead it was the last big moment of his career.

We delve into a young - and very different - Antonio Brown, the beginning of Demaryius Thomas’ short run as the best WR in the NFL, and the coup-de-gras of how it all went south for Tebow right after.
