This is irrelevant
The ‘85 Bears defense had one HOFer. So did the 2000 Ravens defense.
And Karl Mecklenberg should probably be in the HOF.
Richard Dent, Dan Hampton and Mike Singletary are in the HOF for the Bears
Elway didn't have any great offensive players around him
2 (Ray and Rod Woodson)

My bad, two although Woodson’s credentials were from his time in Pittsburgh.
John Elway on the Broncos in the 80s was like LeBron James 1st Cleveland Cavaliers run
Very similar
Great players surrounded by garbage

My fault, forgot Dent and Hampton.
My point is the Broncos had top defenses during those years. It wasn’t a carry job.
Elway had middling numbers during those years and it only became elite when Shanahan joined the team.
That top Bronco defense got their dikks kicked in 55-10 against the 49ers
How was that Elway's fault?
What about letting Timmy Smith on the Redskins run for 200 yards in that SB??
What about Doug Williams bombing the shyt outta that Bronco secondary?
Those "top defenses" always got ran over when it mattered they weren't that good thats what I'm trying to tell you

The offense was ranked top five that year and only scored 10 points.
Yeah you right
But they had no special players at the skill positions
Them 3 amigo nikkas were not good and he had no RB
Did Bobby Humphrey play in that SB?
Edit: He did and had a big fumble then the Niners ripped off 34 unanswered points

This is bs. They were AFC good. Just because the end result versus the NFC i the Super Bowl was what they were, doesn’t mean they weren’t good for their respective conference.That top Bronco defense got their dikks kicked in 55-10 against the 49ers

They had great defenses in Denver.
Exactly. If they win a SB or if the narrative wasnt so falsely slanted in favor of the Elway carried a team a bums, myth..then maybe guys like Mecklunburg and Dennis Smith would get some HOF love.
