Elway was overrated right?

[Lakers Offseason]

He's only overrated when people start putting him in the top 5 GOAT QBs of all time. No way he belongs there.

Nevermind guys like Marino, Montana, Peyton or Brady, he's not better than Steve Young. Or Favre (I don't even like Favre). Hell, I'd take Kurt Warner's peak over him. Jim Kelly was better IMO as well.

John Elway was arguably the most physically gifted QB to play in the NFL up until that point.

He could run and had a ROCKET for an arm.. I mean he had a hose..

The teams he had in Denver were good but they just weren't good enough.. I mean he was playin during the same era as the Niners, Bears and Giants who were loaded..

Not to mention how he did not get along with Dan Reeves and didn't like the offense he was in.

Dog....his peers in the 80s was Bernie Kosar....not Montana or Marino.

Elway and Marino were in the same draft class.

Bernie Kosar was not on Elway's level at all.

this isnt a beauty pageant. Its judging players and how they play. Thats the problem with how Elway is judged, its similar to someone saying "she the prettiest women I ever saw and want to marry her," despite the fact that she has little personality and a boring lay.

Redskins game is ignored again

Kosar and Elways numbers were shoulder to shoulder dog. Football hierarchy back then was Montana and Marino. Everyone else was 2nd tier.

Forgot about them.. Elway just ran up against a legendary perfomance that was ungodly in that game..

Doug Williams was just unconcious.. Cmon

Elway was terrible in that game against a team he was favored by a TD to beat.

But how did the story play out in regards to Kosar and Elway tho?

 

[Joe Sixpack]

Elway was terrible in that game.

He had no weapons.. The Redskins had Dexter Manley and Charles Mann comin off the edge..

Who was gonna help him ?

Steve Sewell

Elway nudging his rival out. Being captain obvious doesn't dismiss the fact the he wasn't considered Montana or Marino

Hold up...the three amigos didnt come into that game with that moniker?

They were aight...

They were weapons. Scored the first TD of the Super Bowl on a bomb

Kosar was his rival?

Denver beat Cleveland in both title games..

Kosar never beat them so I dont remember any rivalry between Kosar and Elway..

Browns Broncos??

Thats a different story
