Elway tossed the rock a thousand more times that Terry did, but had less touchdowns.
Plus he had more than 500 incompletions. |

comparing stats from different eras are garbage. Namath had horrid stats but is considered great because of his famous words & Super Bowl III
I hate stats, they can tell such wrong stories sometimes. |

it considers surrounding talent and respective eras.
That brings up the myth that Elway carried the teams the three Super Bowl losses. He didn't. He had a top ten defense in each season. I contend that since the offense was rankled 15th in two of the seasons that they carried him. |

Terry Bradshaw is the guy who benefited from being on great teams. John Elway is the guy who was his team.
I'm sure throwing to Vance Johnson and those other scrubs the 3 amigo's compares to the guys Bradshaw had. When Elway was finally given other talent they won. Anyone with a pair of eyes knows this, arguing it just makes you look like a reerun that doesn't like Elway because he played for Denver. |

Peyton Manning is by far, the greatest ever.
Peyton and Walsh would have completely owned the 80's and 90's. Hell, Bill Walsh may even still be alive to win more Super Bowls. |
