When the New York Jets need to simulate Denver Broncos quarterback Tim Tebow, the responsibility falls to a man old enough to be his father. Well, at least Mark Brunell is left-handed just like Tebow.

Apparently was putting up roughly 500 rushing yards in his early seasons. And, as scary as it is, he&#8217s got a Super Bowl Ring (with the Saints).

Still, they didn&#8217t have a RB on the practice squad that could make that look?

Joe, he ran the option in college (effectively), but I do hope the timing of the Jets D gets screwed up.

I don&#8217t think Michael Dean Perry has gotten off the field yet (that is still the most memorable Broncos penalty).

TJ, did you really need to bring that game up? I&#8217m going to have to go back to therapy now!

&#8220Go Bless yourself, Mark Brunell.&#8221

Dude, I laughed so hard, I almost wet my pants.

Hey, if you want to go that route, why not get all biblical on him!? &#8220Hey, Brunell. Go forth and multiply thyself!&#8221

That is just to funny, I can just imagine how a 40+ Qb running around in his walker is going to help the Jets defense get ready. Bring on more Mark Brunell, lets just hope Sanchez doesn&#8217t get confused and try to wipe a booger on Tebow!

I laughed, but then I cried, for I suddenly had flashbacks to a certain playoff game at Mile High.

There&#8217s no crying in football?

Don&#8217t tell 80,000 Broncos fans.

Go Bless yourself, Mark Brunell.

Hilarious. As if Tebow&#8217s left hand is what is making him successful at QB right now anyway&#8230
