You can't stop Tim Tebow against third-team defenses, you can only hope to contain him. Here's the Eagles backup quarterback scoring a fourth-quarter touchdown against the Colts on Sunday:

"We're just trying to get better every single day," Tebow told NFL Network after the game. "And today was just one more step, trying to learn the offense, get out here live bullets are flying. I think we did some things well ... but this is just a learning opportunity. ... But it was also just a lot of fun to come out here and play."
Tebow, who is battling Matt Barkley for the No. 3 quarterback job behind Sam Bradford and Mark Sanchez, finished 6 of 12 for 67 yards. He played the entire second half and started 4 of 4 for 43 yards. He struggled after the first series (partially due poor pass protection) before scoring the touchdown at the end of the game.
