#1:  Wild Card Upset of Steelers

There is no question this was going to top the list. It was Tim Tebow at his zenith. The apex moment of the tidal wave that had been building for months. A quarterback lambasted by critics shoving it in all their faces by delivering arguably the most improbable playoff victory in modern NFL history. More shocking than the victory itself though was how well Tebow actually played in it. For those fleet few hours he looked like a world beater.

He threw for 316 yards on just 10 completions for two touchdowns and also ran for another 50 yards and a touchdown. Keep in mind he was doing this against a Pittsburgh Steelers team that had reached the Super Bowl the year before and fielded the #1 defense in the NFL. Not a single soul expected Tebow to survive the game, let alone play like he did and the decisive shot fired to Demaryius Thomas on the first play of overtime was the icing on the cake.
