Yup. Those 80s teams he took to SBs were not teams with a lot of talent, at all. The fact that he took them 3 years in a row, with those rosters puts him in my all time top 2 qbs. If I'm starting a team, I'd take a young Elway all day every day.
& twice on Sundays!!

In my opinion, he revolutionized the game. I know others had been mobile QB's, etc., but with his size, speed & rocket launcher for an arm he set the stage for players who came later. Josh Allen comes to mind due to his size.

getting too but not winning.. TD was an MVP mic drop please just stop. ask Marino and Keely how that feels.
You implied that Dak needed that to get to a Super Bowl when he has had that & still hasn't sniffed a conference championship. I'm simply saying there is an ocean between the level those guys played the position and the level Dak plays at. It's not apples to apples. That's the mic drop.
Sure, rounding out a roster has helped put some teams over the top. But there have also been a lot of super talented RB's who never sniffed a SB because they went to the team that didn't have the right QB. QB is the most important position by a mile.

not copy righted. be as stupid as you want to be :)
the fact is that everyone knows Dak is not Elite. yet a lot of Dak haters continue to complain about Dak not being Elite.its a circular illogic
I see. So using your intelligent logic when someone compares Prescott to Aikman I shouldn't complain about him not being elite. I should just roll with it.

A lot of words for a fan boy who can't stand that I pointed out how ridiculous it is to compare a stiff like Dak Prescott to the great Troy Aikman.

Walk it off. It'll be alright.

sorry McKwrong, average qbs have rings because of HOF defenses and OLs and a strong run game. AND great qbs(ask Marino) do not have ring because their teams weren't strong enough ie not good enough, D or OL or run game...

Great TEAMS earn championships...

  • Dan Marino. ...
  • Fran Tarkenton. ...
  • Warren Moon. ...
  • Dan Fouts. ...
  • Jim Kelly. ...
  • Philip Rivers. ...
some of them were GReat and dont have ring other that are great like brees, farve, and rogers play 19 years and have just one ring,..that 2 decades of a great qb and somehow that it that all they could do..but you have Troy8 have great teams so he gets to and wins all 3.. he had far better teams then many of those on that list,

Elway was getting to Super Bowls without TD.

Sure every QB needs a full team but Elway was more than capable of carrying a lesser team to lofty heights.
What? No he didn't win it until Terrell Davis Got there.

Dak is no Elway but that comment is ridiculous, just like when the niners and Cowboys were ruining the AFC's best offer.. the best team in the NFC was just better by alot....by no means where those Denver teams trash...ridiculous.
Respectfully, go look at the rosters and show me a team in any super bowl with lesser rosters top to bottom. There is one HOFer on those 3 super bowl squads. Elway. A decent QB would have been lucky to win 4 or 5 games with those teams.

Dude dragged the likes of Sammy Winder, Bobby Humphrey, Vance Johnson and Ricky Nattiel to Super Bowls.

Like someone else mentioned, stick Elway on those 80s 49er teams and he'd be right there with Brady for rings.
