ENGLEWOOD, Colo. -- Tim Tebow had no problem with Detroit Lions linebacker Stephen Tulloch striking the prayerful pose known as "Tebowing" after sacking him last week.

Tebow said he figures Tulloch was just having fun, not mocking him or his Christian faith by participating in the phenomenon that's become an Internet sensation.

The craze began shortly after TV cameras captured Tebow kneeling in quiet reflection while his teammates celebrated their comeback win over the Miami Dolphins two weeks ago.

The Lions joined in the gesture during their 45-10 beatdown of the Broncos on Sunday, including Tulloch's pose after his takedown of Tebow, which has drawn widespread public criticism.

"He was just celebrating, having fun with his teammates and I don't take offense to that," Tebow said.

Well, he was bothered by a thing or two, actually.

"I was bothered that I gave up a sack and that I didn't break the tackle," Tebow said. "That bothered me."

Tebow has endured 13 sacks in his two starts for Denver this season, so he said Wednesday he has to start throwing the ball away more if he's in a defender's grasp.

While that might further hurt his 46 percent completion rate, Tebow said he's only concerned with scoring touchdowns and beating opponents, not with statistics or style points.

"Ultimately, it's about winning games. I don't really care how it looks or what we do, as long as we win," Tebow said when asked what he must do to maintain his starting status beyond Sunday's game at Oakland.
