Tim Tebow showed off his fancy moves on a wild play that didn't even count.

Tebow's failed scramble just before halftime stood as the play of the game, until Stephen McGee - another option quarterback in college - ran around to throw a 13-yard touchdown pass and a two-point conversion with 15 seconds left, giving the Dallas Cowboys a 24-23 victory over the Denver Broncos in a preseason opener Thursday night.

Tebow led the Broncos to two field goals in four drives.

The first came on a drive that started on his own 10-yard line, the other on a series that started 7 yards from the end zone.

He completed 6 of 7 passes for 91 yards.

He also ran twice for 15 yards.

McGee threw three TD passes.
