he's still hella of a quarterback though

If someone would've come up to you after that play and said the Broncos are losing this game 42-10, you probably would've punched them in the face. Oof.

@tomcardello Haha Ken Stabler? atleast Elway could finish his career with more touchdown passes than interceptions in his career. Stabler Tds 194 Ints 222, he once threw 30 ints in a season 1978. Elway also had 148 wins second most all time by a quarterback and most at the time of his retirement and he did that without a great team most of his career

@tomcardello I read your comments and laughed at them as hard as one could possibly at an idiot who has nothing to do but rip a legend when their life is that pathetic that that's all they know how to do. Elway never had to win a super bowl to be beloved in Denver, but he still did, twice. Greatness should not have a definite road to travel. It should be a combination of regular season stats, victories, impact on the game, and post-season production. John had all of that.

Greatest quarterback in the history of the game. He will always be overshadowed by Montana's four super bowl wins but I still give him all the credit in the world for putting everything he had into it, despite such a lack of supporting cast around him.

Thats great at :53 BOMBA!!!! love it! Tres amigos

@sheegan8 FYI Elway could throw the Ball 80 yards in the air.

@tomcardello Elway chocked.!! His D didn't show up in those Superbowls and he played with a cast that couldn't start on any other NFL team, he carried those Broncos teams of the 80's to the Superbowl. Just ask Matt Millen when preparing for the Broncos the 49ers called the Denver Elway's cause that was all they had.

@sheegan8

Haha..you're right. I have no idea what I was talking about.

[sheegan8]

@greekboy1112 It went from the Denver 35 to the Washington 10, with maybe about ten yards sideways... it was under 60 yards total, 55 down the field... and most current NFL QBs can throw it 65+ yards anyway... just saying

[sheegan8]

@sparkinman actually they tend to be compared to Favre nowadays... hence why everyone constantly compares Jay Cutler, Matt Stafford, Aaron Rodgers (for other reasons also though, obviously), and others to him... Just saying.
