Jeff Legwold of the Denver Post reports the Broncos broke out their own edition of read option, using quarterback Tim Tebow as a front-line ballcarrier or offering the threat of him as a front-line ballcarrier just before he handed the ball to running back Willis McGahee. In a game in which Tebow completed only 10-of-21 passes, the Broncos still ran for almost 300 yards and scored 24 consecutive points in a comeback victory over the Raiders. Now comes the next step for the Broncos, the decision whether to do something few, if any, NFL teams have done with their most prized roster possession through the years — put their starting quarterback in a full-time option offense.

When it's all said and done, you can't deny that they tried everything to make him a starting NFL QB.
It's almost like a backhanded comment though. We know u can't work in the pro style sys. so we are even going to give you shot at running an offense that hasn't been around since Lombardi.....
Kind of what the Panthers are doing with Cam...they installed a bunch of Auburns playbook to make him feel comfortable?
As long as the personnel around him fits and it works, go for it. You do what you can to win. If that means changing up the offense to suit Timmy better and keep winning with it, do it. Just don't do it without the right personnel in place or it's just useless.
