NFL Picks for Divisional Playoffs Have Tim Tebow Keeping Things Close With Patriots, Packers Rolling Over Giants
If it weren't for the five weekdays that separate games, I could easily make the case that NFL playoff time is the very best time there. And even with the break, it's still pretty fantastic. The opening round of the playoffs reminded us of that reality, when even the blowouts were fun to watch. The Saints easily could have lost but ended up winning by 17, and the Giants trailed...

Photo Story: ‘The Fear of God’ starring Tom Brady, Bill Belichick, and special guest Tim Tebow
It’s been a while since our last photo story on Andrew Luck and Peyton Manning, but the long hiatus has ended, inspired by – who else? – Tim Tebow.
