Steelers Vs. Broncos, 2012 AFC Wild Card: No Tebow Time In Fourth Quarter (Yet)

It seems as if there won't be Tebow Time in the fourth quarter of the Denver Broncos' AFC Wild Card match-up with the Pittsburgh Steelers on this Sunday. The Broncos quarterback didn't come through on a drive that could have given Denver the lead.

The drive started uneventfully, with Willis McGahee getting a short gain on a first-down carry. But Tebow found Daniel Fells on a play-action rollout to move the sticks. On the next set of downs, after a short run, Tebow scrambled — possibly after an uncalled facemask penalty — and threw incomplete, then threw incomplete again on third down. Britton Colquitt punted, possibly for the final time on the day.

And now it's Ben Roethlisberger, not Tim Tebow, who has a chance to make a game-winning drive happen.

SB Nation’s NFL bloggers made predictions for Wild Card weekend and here’s a look at the updated NFL playoffs schedule for Sunday. Check out Behind the Steel Curtain for the latest on the Steelers and Mile High Report for the latest on the Broncos.
