Awesome!

Nice try. AB has 500 more yards than Tyreek does. Tyreek is only beating him by .4 YPC. Latimer is beating Wilson by 3 whole yards, while also playing three times as much on ST's.

Hey now, you can't just move the goalposts only when it benefits your argument.

Adversity? Elway has never even seen adversity. He was handed the starting job by his father the coach at every level of his career, and then he refused to show up for the team that drafted him so he could go to a stronger team. That team then cheated to surround him with advantages when it became obvious that he didn't have what it took to be a winner, and then he was handed a GM job with no qualifications. Only now is Elway having his initial meeting with adversity, and it appears that adversity is kicking his ___.

ALL True

Lets try a different exercise. Who's had the better career?

Player A: 35 receptions for 445 yards, 12.7 ypc, and 3 TD.

Player B: 111 receptions for 1,361 yards, 12.3 ypc, and 7 TD.

Both started their careers in 2014. Player B also has a special teams punt fake TD to his name.

I would vote for Player B, and knowmo and I are almost always on the same page.

Nobody cares about Albert Wilson and Cody Latimer. Both are backups, one just happens to be very good on Special Teams.

Does that mean you'd rather have him than Latimer?

Name any of the starting WR's, TE's, or even RB's from the 80's Broncos teams and tell me if any of them ever lead the league in anything.

John took 3 teams that weren't SB quality teams to the SB because he was so good. They had talented players on D but the O was barren for a decade and a half until he got help.

Every great team who has won multiple SB's have had a 3 headed monster for their QB. John didn't get that until Shanny finally came along though Wade knew it and set the foundation.

Montana proved you can't go to a SB without talent around the QB. Every year Belly goes out and gets one or 2 WR's and one or 2 RB's to make sure tommy* has the tools to win.

Give tommy* the 3 amigos and Steve Sewell and Orson Mobily and he doesn't make it to a SB.

John Elway ..... scheming

His plan is to draft another 6'7" QB in the 1st that he could get in the 6th.
