The Denver Broncos still plan on running an option offense.
Only, this version centers on giving Peyton Manning the option of calling anything he wants.
For the second time in six months, offensive coordinator Mike McCoy has to overhaul his playbook to fit the QB under center.
McCoy restructured the offense on the fly last October to better suit Tim Tebow's unique skill set, switching over to the unconventional read-option. Tebow proficiently ran the system, too, leading the Broncos into the playoffs for the first time in six seasons.
But with Tebow a member of the New York Jets and Manning taking over, McCoy has gone back to the drawing board.
Naturally, he's leaning heavily on the opinion of the league's only four-time MVP for this revamped scheme.

Tim Tebow changed his dog’s name to ‘Bronx’
It’s official: Tim Tebow’s allegiance now lies with New York. The new Jets quarterback told the media on Thursday that he changed his dog’s name from Bronco to Bronx after being traded.
Tebow got the pooch — a Rhodesian Ridgeback — in October 2010. He seemed to be sucking up to the local crowd by naming his pup Bronco back then. He chose “Bronx” as the new name for...

According to a spokesperson from the E!, the network will air a half-hour special devotedly solely to the New York Jets quarterback sometime in July.
Broncos’ Brock Osweiler victim of unfair stereotype
Who says that a tall quarterback can’t be successful in the NFL? It seems to go against logic that having height like the Denver Broncos’ Brock Osweiler would be a detriment to his success as a quarterback. Osweiler is 6’7” which makes it much easier for him to see over the defense compared to the average quarterback who normally stands about 6’2”. On top of that, he...
Tim Tebow is about to have one confused pooch running around his house
Tim Tebow knows how to play to the Jets fans, doesn’t he?
I don’t understand why Tebow is bothering to change his dog’s name from Bronco to Bronx (Ed. note: Bronco is a much better name for a dog if you ask me) other than the obvious, but if you’re going to go ahead and give your pet a new moniker, shouldn’t it have been Swampy or Cesspool or even Jersey, seeing that the...
Tim Tebow will be on a special for E! this summer
"I don't know why I'm famous!" In what appears to be a never ending quest for the public to learn everything there is about Tebow that has nothing to do with football, E! has announced that they will be airing a 30-minute special with him as the main focus. Unfortunately they won't be asking him questions about why he can't throw a spiral but focus...
Brandon Marshall says Jerry Rice couldn’t even succeed if he played in Miami
Whether their ownership group likes it or not, the Dolphins currently have a nasty stigma attached to their organization. At the moment, it feels like nobody wants to play there. Miami was considered a front-runner to land Peyton Manning when he hit the market, and we saw how quickly that fell apart. Then it appeared they would sign Matt Flynn, but but Flynn ultimately chose Seattle...
Jets Only Working Tim Tebow At QB So Far
Tim Tebow is solely a quarterback for the moment. Tebow said Thursday he has not worked at any positions other than quarterback so far during the Jets offseason program. There have been reports the Jets plan to use him at tight end or H-back as well as a running back. Tebow said he is open to anything. "I always put team first, and whatever they want me to do, they know Ill...
Jets locker room already a circus
Welcome back, my friends, to the show that never ends.
May is typically a quiet month in NFL circles, but for the Jets, the attention surrounding Tim Tebow made life at their Florham Park facility feel like they were prepping for a playoff game. On Thursday the locker room was open to the media for the first time during the team's voluntary offseason workouts, and more than...
Teams need more than just a quarterback to win
This offseason has been characterized by quarterback changes. Manning to Denver, Luck drafted by the Colts, Griffin drafted by the Redskins, Tebow vs. Sanchez, Weeden vs. McCoy; they're all great story lines, but they also highlight a growing perception that may just be completely off base. You need a quarterback to win a championship. That's completely true, but you also...
The New Fast And Furious Offseason
The hits just keep on coming this NFL offseason. Free agency started off with a bang, with the Peyton Manning sweepstakes, the Saints and bounty scandal, and the draft. The Seattle Seahawks have already signed nine of their ten draft picks, including first round pick Bruce Irvin, more on him later. What a difference a year makes huh? This time last year we, as fans, weren’t worried...
Criminally underexposed Tim Tebow finally getting his own special on E!
Jets backup quarterback and man-about-town Tim Tebow will be the subject of a special to air on E! Entertainment Television later this summer. Because if there’s one athlete the public needs to find out more intimate details about, should any exist, it’s Tebow (Ed. note: sarcasm is fun!).
Scant details are available as to what the 30-minute show will be about, but I can’t...
Luck should look to Eli
NFL Soup makes a great point: no one knows more about emerging from Peyton's shadow that little brother and two-time champ Eli Manning.
First love and history aside, Andrew Luck’s best bet to successfully follow the Peyton-era is to take a few pointers from Eli Manning. No one knows the cool shadow that Peyton casts better than Eli. No one has endured the comparisons more...
New York firmly in grip of Tebowmania
