Did you have a moment of doubt? Even one? Or did you know that the Broncos would defeat the Bears despite trailing 10-0 with just over two minutes to play?

Whatever the case, Denver's latest crazy victory has left the NFL intelligentsia either speechless or grasping for imagery. ESPN's Chris Berman offers a prime example.

Moments ago, while struggling to make sense of what he just witnessed, Berman compared Tebow to other things that can't be explained, including UFOs, the Loch Ness Monster and the Bermuda Triangle. Which was more than fellow commentator Trent Dilfer managed. He basically admitted that even though he's paid to explain the NFL, when it comes to Tebow, he's got nuthin'.

More on this game tomorrow -- but in the meantime, look below to enjoy again the final moment of today's game.
