There’s been plenty of talk about Tim Tebow’s total passing yardage and average gain per completion (316 yards, 31.6 per catch) in Sunday’s thrilling Denver Broncos playoff win and how it correlates with one of his favorite Bible verses, John 3:16.
But how many people noticed the additional correlation between the verse and the Pittsburgh Steelers’ total time of possession in the game? They held the ball for (yep) 31 minutes, 6 seconds. It’s true, look it up.
Then there’s THIS staggering number, reported by Twitter: the Broncos QB is the new champ for inspiring the most tweets per second, with Tebow-related tweets peaking at 9,420 per second (per SECOND) after his 80-yard touchdown pass on the first play of overtime gave Denver the stunning win.
The previous record? Beyonce, at 8,868 tweets per second, when she announced on the MTV Music Awards that she was pregnant.
