Denver Broncos quarterback Peyton Manning led his team to the Super Bowl with a win over the New England Patriots in the AFC Championship game. He paid homage to, or mocked, a former Broncos quarterbacking legend afterwards while awaiting the trophy presentation. On the heels of San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick mocking Carolina Panthers’ quarterback Cam Newton’s Superman celebration in the Divisional Round, Manning struck the famous “Tim Tebow” kneeling pose.

Of course we’re kidding, Manning did intentionally mean to “Tebow” on the trophy presentation stage, he just kind of ended up doing it. It’d be a lot cooler if he did though and it is still an awesome picture.
