    Default Elway is a bust

    1990, Superbowl aftermath:

    John Elway completes just 10 of 26 passes with no TDs and 2 INTS. Joe Montana completes 76% of his passes for 297 yds, 5 TD and no INTs.

    It is clear we must bench Elway, he is a bust. He will never win an NFL championship. He'll probably never even win another playoff game.

    I actually agree with Fred Williams here. Fans tend to over-react pretty much all the time.

    When Tebow makes three Super Bowls, regardless of win or lose, maybe then I'll compare the situation to Elway.

    Maybe.

    Anyone who can't see the differences, either didn't see Elway, or is delusional about what Tebow brings to the table.
    *The statements above are my opinions, unless they are links, because then they are links, which wouldn't make them my opinions, and I suppose stats aren't necessarily opinion, but they are certainly presented to support an opinion. Proceed accordingly.

    In the Superbowl game in particular?? You know the stats.. 9 TDs to like 2 INTS for Bradshaw.. Sure some QBs were better in the Superbowl then Elway.

    I'm not saying Tebow is Elway, or even close for that matter, but Tebow exceeded my expectations this year, perhaps because I expected so little. I was just happy to get Kyle Orton the hell out of Denver, then we started winning games and suddenly we were relevant again.

    Elway played on inferior teams, Tebow is playing on an inferior team. D. Thomas is the ONLY decent option Tebow has, and I'm not sure how many teams Thomas would even start for... This team needs speed and hands on offense, and a few RBs who can run. Tebow has to learn to pass like a professional QB, he has to make the routine throws, the checkdowns, the dumps, and Mike McCoy has to grow a pair of balls when calling plays.

    The defense needs help and needs more speed.

    On the flipside, Prater is elite now and the offensive line is pretty good for the most part. I am assuming we will improve this offseason and another playoff run next year isn't out of the question.
