ENGLEWOOD, Colo. -- With starter Kyle Orton nursing bruised ribs, Tim Tebow is taking more snaps at practice, and the rookie quarterback might even see his first extended action of the season when the Denver Broncos visit the Oakland Raiders on Sunday.
Orton sat out practice Wednesday, and Broncos interim coach Eric Studesville met with quarterbacks coach Ben McDaniels to determine how much, if any, the veteran will be able to participate in Thursday's practice.
In Orton's absence, Tebow has been taking the bulk of the snaps, with third quarterback Brady Quinn receiving some work, too.
Tebow, whom former coach Josh McDaniels selected in the first round of the April draft, has made just cameo appearances this season and thrown only one pass so far, a 3-yard touchdown toss to Spencer Larsen against the Kansas City Chiefs on Oct. 14.

I'm really indecisive about the whole starting Teebow deal..... Part of me says sure why not at least we will get to see how he looks and the other part of me says keep him on the bench a little longer and get more experience...
Oh and yes I put an extra e in Teebow, folks.
