Shootout at Mall of America Field

Tim Tebow vs. Christian Ponder was like Florida vs. Florida State all over again only this time it was Tebow’s Broncos vs. Ponder’s Vikings.

The Vikings led the game 15-7 at halftime with Denver’s only score coming off of a 16 yard interception return for a touchdown by Mario Haggan. But in the 3rd quarter everything changed.

The Broncos offense got rolling and their touchdown made the score 15-14. What ensued was like a heavyweight fight reminiscent of Ron Lyle vs. George Foreman with each team getting smacked with big plays and getting back up to score again.

The back and forth action was exciting to watch. Receivers Percy Harvin and Demaryius Thomas each ended the game with over 140 yards and two TD’s apiece. Thomas nearly caught two other touchdowns which would have been amazing.

Quarterback stats:
Tim Tebow 10/15 passing for 202 yards 2 TD’s 0 INT
Christian Ponder 29/47 passing for 381 yards 3 TD’s 2 INT’s
