Winning one game at home does not necessarily equate to peaking. The Broncos were coming off a three game losing streak and had just lost to the Chiefs, of all teams, 7-3. The week before that they scored 14 against a terrible Buffalo defense. In those three losses Tebow's pass completion percentage, passing yards, passer rating, rushing yardage, and yards per rushing attempt all dropped each game. As Redskin fans we know that every once in awhile a team plays a good game at the same time the other guys play a bad game, and given the Bronco's (and Tebow's) recent play this may have been the case for them against the Steelers, who may have run out of gas trying to win their division, rather than an indication of a 'steady rise.'
That said, as long as the Broncos are still alive, anything's possible. We may be seeing a resurgence from them. I'm just not completely convinced yet.
