Broncos vs Patriots: Game Time, TV Channel, AFC Divisional Playoff

John 3:16? Miracles still happen as Tim Tebow and the Denver Broncos have faith in the unbelievable. Tebowmania is alive and the fans are believing themselves. Now that the Broncos get past a tough opponent, the Steelers last week, they are about to play a bigger and stronger team, New England Patriots. This time against a more skilled opponent and a harder environment.

The New England Patriots are prepared to stop the David of the football world “Tebow” who surges as the most beloved athlete in the United State. Just like that, showing his passion for the game, knowing that he needs not only to perform well but also to believe the impossible. Patriots have to take over of the game early from the first quarter so that they will have certainty this time of winning the game. With the past failures in the last four years, the Patriots will try to win their first playoff game in many years. Jets overpowered Patriots last year and this is what the fans in the Gillette Stadium do not want to see at all.

With Tom Brady as the quarterback of the Patriots, the team still flourishes as they posted 13-3 record, 14-2 last year. Brady also broke Dan Marino’s record in passing as he posted one of his best seasons except for 2007 when he had that offensive attacks that brought them to Super Bowl but eventually lose to the Giants. It’s another game for the Patriots as they aim for Super Bowl 46. An opportunity for Brady to add another fruitful year in his Hall of Fame career. A challenge is here as the Tebow team will visit the Patriots on Saturday at 8:00 PM.

While Brady is regarded as one of the top 10 quarterbacks of all time though his career is not yet over, opponents in the past found his weakness. The Giants, Ravens, and, Jets have the one thing in common when they beat the Patriots. Brady struggled in pass rush and blitz defense. He couldn’t get away of that kind of defense that was employed to him in those games. He was sacked for many times that his timings were not getting to the receivers. This is the vulnerability of the offense of the Patriots.

Another concern for the Patriots will be their pass defense, though the Broncos are not that great passing except for that last game against the Steelers. New England defense can be liability at the end and can lead them to defeat if Tebow will be passing a 316 mark. Coach Bill Belichick knows that his defense is not the same and even worse than last season. But the fact of the matter is that this defensive team understands how to stop the opponent at the right time.

Brady accumulated 5,235 yards, 39 touchdowns, 12 interceptions in the regular season. He will try to guide this team to another victorious year as the Patriots host Broncos on Saturday’s AFC divisional playoffs 2012. Brady learned from his previous mistakes that his hunger for another ring will be the determining factor for him to have a superb performance. His leadership in the game will always be the biggest arsenal of the Patriots in overthrowing the raging Broncos.

Brady will always be remembered as the calmness quarterback in his generation that he can pass the ball to his non-star receivers. Wes Welker caught 122 times for 1,569 yards and Rob Gronkowski caught 90 times for 1,327 yards for the season as they were the component of the high-powered offense of the New England Patriots. Both these players must be getting their numbers for the Patriots to be in the AFC Championship game. Also Deion Branch clutch receiving will be needed in the game.

The hype of Tebows 80 yard touchdown pass in overtime to beat the Steelers, 29-23, lingered in the minds of the coaching staff of the Patriots. Broncos can win games with Tebow and that he can pass the ball also. With a dynamic offense attacking the weak and unstable defense of the Patriots, Broncos have a chance for another upset. Broncos also has the defense to stop the offense of the Patriots. Coach John Fox knows exactly what he is dealing with as his Panthers lose to the Patriots in one of the three Super Bowls of the Patriots.

One of the storylines in this game is the presence of Josh McDaniels not on the Broncos as he was fired a year ago, but his return to the Patriots. McDaniels built the personnel of the Broncos and he even drafted Tebow. His input on the game will likely be an edge for the Patriots but still the installed system on Broncos is not from him anymore.
