Terrell Suggs: ‘Once again, God had to save Tim Tebow and the Denver Broncos’

Terrell Suggs doesn’t have a football game this weekend, let alone one against the Denver Broncos, but he was still speaking his mind about the Broncos and their lightning-rod quarterback this week.

“There's getting it done and there's not getting it done,” the Baltimore Ravens’ linebacker said in an ESPN interview (watch here) this week. The Broncos, after a 7-1 surge under Tebow, limped to an 8-8 finish with three consecutive losses. They’ll play the Pittsburgh Steelers in an NFL wild-card game at 4:30 p.m. EST Sunday (CBS).

“Once again, God had to save Tim Tebow and the Denver Broncos. Like I said, they didn't win [their way into the playoffs]. It's simple — you win, you're division champs. He couldn't even give them [the Chiefs] two drives. They lost, 7-3. Two drives gives them [a] 9-7 [win].”

“With all due respect, we don't pray on the sideline,” Suggs said. “I mean we do -- we give it up to God [just for] safety and health, but we're gonna go out there and win that game. We don't need our kicker to make a 62-yarder [like Denver’s Matt Prater]. I'm just saying. We don't need guys to fall out of bounds and then we get to punt it back ... we don't need stuff like that to happen for us.”
