![ILLSLICK - WINTER IS COMING [Official Video]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/dwTMeM1zIhQ/mqdefault.jpg)
I saw him play in his prime and I don't know if I will ever see a QB with such all around talent.. Size 6'3, mobility, accurate ROCKET arm...you were never out of a game when #7 was back there.. I saw him avoid a sack by stiff arming a DE, roll out to his right, throw across his body 63 yards hitting Shannon Sharpe in perfect stride for a TD... most unreal play I have seen by ANY QB..
He had a cannon
For all the beatings he took in the super bowls he was the one that broke the NFC's streak. His 4th down conversion where he got smashed in sb32 was one of the best plays in the big dance considering the circumstances. The guy was amazing to watch.
This 5 minute video doesn't do justice showing the greatness that was John Elway. It was a privilege to watch #7 in his prime. I have never seen a QB stiff arm a LB or DT, sometimes both in the same play, then throw against his body for a 60 yard bomb other than him. Others have better stats. Others have more SB wins. But NO ONE had that type of athleticism & No one has yet to come close.
Even as a Raiders fan you have to respect this guy. Imagine if they won all the Superbowls there would be no question about him being the GOAT. A true legend of this game. Much respect from this Oakland fan for the way he played.
Thank you for respecting our QB and for that I respect your franchise
RIP Marty. Nobody could fire up a team like Marty Schottenheimer.
He died?
Yep
DNA test proved that he is not the father of Eric Cartman.
Everybody was thinking he had Buffalo Bill DNA for a minute.
@@jaycompany4886, Elway was 0-3 in the Super Bowl before the Bills had appeared in their first Super Bowl...
That drive was amazing, just incredible. The great John Elway.
Browns only shot at going to a super bowl, and we had to face Elway.
Yes
I rooted HARD for the Patriots when they played the Broncos the week before the Drive. Even as an 11-year old Browns fan I would've much rather faced Tony Eason than John Elway.
Man, they look good this year though.
Those Browns/Broncos playoff games were epic
@@harryhighland591 I rooted for the Steelers against Mahomes' Chiefs...now, if our Titans make it to the SB, we will likely have to face the latter. I can relate.
Schottenheimer: We have the best defense in the league.
Elway: I'm bout to ruin this man's career.
Mike Shanahan: I just got promoted to head coach.
Elway: I'm bout to make this man's career.
I rooted for Elway in every SB he participated. Glad he went out on top
Same here except for when he played against my Niners!
With the game on the line, I'll take Elway - no questions asked.
Most people don't know that the" band on the field" was his last college game, man he sure took it out on the NFL the rest of his career, pound for pound, maybe the toughest QB ever
To me, Marty Schottenheimer should receive some consideration for the Hall of Fame.
Charles Gorman agreeed. An amazing coach.
absolutely
He’ll get in.
This coming from a Broncos fan. Marty should definitely be in the hall. Shame he's not already!
dan reeves should even more so
2:23 - 2:39 - That was just ridiculous.
I remember that game. Monday night 1986 against the Jets. I remember Gastineau was all over Elway the whole game. Broncos lost.
Daniel Kelegian oh yeah 1986 first elway super bowl
Yes Broncos I believe we're 5-0 coming into that game. Jets were good that year with Freeman McNeil and that Defense. Actually the Broncos lost twice that year in the Meadowlands. Later in the season they lost to the Giants in Overtime. Which was actually a great game. Elway was on fire. The Jets lost one of the greatest games in NFL history in the playoffs to the Browns. Marathon game.
That play does not come close to Randall Cunningham getting walloped and still throwing a touchdown. "Randall Cunningham incredible touchdown pass"
Best leader at the QB position I've ever seen
The Broncos were the first team to utilize actual horses in the NFL between Sharpe and elway.
😆
😂😂😂😂
🤣
I'm a long time bronco fan And that is 😂😂😂.. Still the GOAT for me tho...
My favorite QB ever! I was fortunate to spend quality time with the 3 amigos, John, and his awesome Dad Jack Elway Sr.
Seeing Marty just kills me. This man wasn’t a bad coach he just had bad luck and lots of it. He and bud Grant are 2 of some of the best coaches to never win it, and Marty never even reached it because of either Elway or the black cloud that followed him. He should be in the hall of fame regardless and even though he passed away not even a month ago, he should still get in
Couldn't agree more.
As a little kid in elementary school in the late 90s, my very first favorite NFL team was the Broncos. They were a cool-looking team. Their colors were cool. Their mascot was cool. Their logo was awesome. And among the first famous football players I ever knew about, John Elway was my favorite.
He was a joy to watch. And I’m not necessarily even a Broncos fan. But anybody who could continuously come back like that... wow!
A lot of great QBs come out in round 1, but only a few that are a guaranteed winner , Elway is one of them.
Elway wasn't the greatest passer ever but he's one of the absolute greatest football players I've ever seen. He was about the closest thing to Micheal Jordan as a player could be n the NFL. Elway ability to consistently carry a team throughout a season was and still is amazing. Elway greatness covered up sooooo many of Denver weaknesses he honestly could have won MVP every year.
Thank you for this comment. I was wondering why Denver made those late trips to the Super Bowl in the late 80’s
@@RASTAGOOB thanks Robert! Check out my podcast called the mid range game on anchor and Spotify.
Absolutely agree especially with all the smoke and mirrors Dan Reeves implemented to make up for the voids on the depth chart
@@Romans219 I was too young to notice all that, and those 3 Super Bowl losses were hard to take as a young fan, but looking back I'm thankful that I got to watch the Elway show!
As just a fan of the game, you have to give Elway respect. 5 SB appearances. "The Drive" which is right up there with the "Immaculate Reception", or "Miracle in the Meadowlands" in Football legend, and lore.
Broncos GOAT
What a legend
Best QB all-time...strongest arm, mobile, tough as a dumptruck, clutch, accurate... you name it, this guy had it...no one takes those early Broncos teams to the Super Bowl and wins. The NFC was so much better and BIGGER back then it was a joke...the Bronco DL looked like kids compared to the NFC champion's OL...because of rule changes, you cannot compare QB stats between eras, or Philip Rivers is 10x better than Terry Bradshaw and Roger Staubach,,,but you can compare skill sets...and Elway is the best...and he did it for most of his career with little to no running game[they get Davis and a running game...even with ancient Elway. look what happens]
Big Fat W Bro!
W AF
You're right about the imbalance with the NFC in those days. Thirteen straight years of SB wins. But it says something that the team that broke the NFC's win streak was Denver with Elway at QB.
They had more of a running game than Marino's Dolphins. And a system coach, as opposed to a player's coach
#23? Cuz there are a lot of Broncos in the HOF, right? He took them to those SB of the 80s alone.
In Denver he's Jesus Christ
pah-raise Jesus!
@Zach Wells
He would've been had he left after Super Bowl 50. His last couple drafts have been solid though.
@Ran Man most of his career he was carrying the Broncos, he had to take chances in order to win.
John Elway the real Johnny Football no cheap shots at Johnny Manziel but he was the first
#23....?. Come on...!!!. The man deserves to be one of the top 10...!!!. No questions or arguments allowed. He earned a postion within the top 10. JOHN ELWAY.., one of the best QBs ever...!!!
There is no freakin way that Elway should be below Brett Favre!
100
I agree, troy aikman needes to be higher than Favre too
Yes there is...elway was a winner but his stats are trash never threw for 30 tds...brett farve did countless times...how many mvps elway win??? Farve got 3...3 consecutive ones...he dominated the 90s...yeh denver won the superbowls cause they had the better teams by far...plus elway jumped ontop of terrell davis back to 2 superbowls....
@Altitude Magic bradshaw won 4 lol whats ur point?
Nah i get ur point..bradshaw had the greatest balanced team ever....elway was the main reason PRE TERRELL DAVIS era.....
@Altitude Magic Lets not talk about getting to those five super bowls without considering how badly he lost in those early superbowls.
Favre was a better talent and better quarterback. Better arm, better toughness, and better stats (even with the interceptions). Helps he wasn't a whiner too.
Elway was a amazing player and proved it with his comebacks and the Super Bowls he went to.
Rip Marty Schottenheimer
John Elways smile always scared me
That's pretty normal. Lots of people are scared of horses
Yeah hes got some massive chompers
Lifetime Broncos fan right here. John was the man.
He couldn't win a sb because he didn't have the help he needed. People forget not only did Tom Brady make a come back against the falcons, his defense held them from scoring...everyone needs help in life.
He won 2 superbowls (the whole MVP thing...).
That’s the thing people forget about John Elway. The dude was like Tom Brady when it came to rosters. The dude single handily led his to the super bowl three times with shitty rosters. And what does he do when he finally gets a good roster? Wins two Super Bowls.
@@CompletelyRandomAndUnknown yup. If he had even slightly better teams and managed to win all 6 SBs, and be 6-0. He's the GOAT.
Theoretically ofc
Elway's tosses weren't the short, sure-thing Brady throws, either, and he could move. You don't go to 5 superbowls and win a pair (MVP) without earning it. What a champ!
Talk about being clutch he even 9Clutched his legacy
Just an amazing athlete.
RIP MARTY SCHOTTENHEIMER
I played baseball against John Elway in high school. My friend got drafted by the Yankees same year as Elway.
Dude that’s awesome , what was he like as a baseball player?
@@ladistar he got drafted number one by the Yankees and got $100,000 signing bonus. That which was a lot back then. Then he played rookie ball with my buddy on the Oneonta Yankees.
Most likely would have been a major leaguer.
When I had played against him though he was in center field. Really just another player on the field.
We didn't know that was THE John Elway because he was just a good player that hadn't become the legend yet.
Go John Elway
He is a beast!
How is this man behind farve and how is he so low🤦♂️
Is this a serious comment? Favre had a way, way better career than Elway
@@billymanziel5666 Really?! You sure about that? Elway has more SB rings than Favre plus he beat Favre in the SB. I'm a Raider fan & I love Brett Favre, but c'mon now. Elway had a much better career than Favre.
Cesar Canete oh and by the way, that super bowl you give Elway so much credit for when he “beat Favre”, he had ZERO touchdowns and an interception. Meanwhile Favre threw 3 touchdowns and a pick. I’d rethink that argument.
@@billymanziel5666 Elway went to 5 SBs and was 5-1 in Conference title games. Favre went to only 2 SBs and was 2--3 in conference title games, including choking away 2 conference title games with bad INTs that cost him 2 more SB appearances.
When John dove for the first down I knew Denver would win.
His complete name is 'back to back Super Bowl champion NFL and Super Bowl MVP John Albert Elway.
A true legend
OK I know 3 Super Bowl losses is tough, but "big game bust" is going a bit far. I mean, last time I checked, Conference Championships also qualified as big games, and he seemed to do alright in those. Just sayin.'
Should be in top 10
Elway started out like he was going to be a bust.....but man when he got his stuff2gether, forget about it one of the best ever in the last seconds of a game
Rod Smith should be in the HOF.
Daniel Kelegian sure
Elway should be a little higher on the list. All-world talent and two SB rings. He is the greatest QB I ever saw.
Obviously I'm biased, but 23? Way too low. Belongs in the top 15
Top 15? Elway is way overrated...he was never even considered the Best QB in the NFL at any time In fact, maybe it was a struggle for him to be considered top 3 in the NFL at any given season. Not in the 90's. Maybe 2 or 3 years in the 80's. Never considered better than Montana, nor Marino in the 80's. Then you have a few other QBs fighting for that 3rd spot in the 80's in Esiason, Kelly, Kosar, Moon, Cunningham, even Jim Everett. There are way better QBS ranked below that are better than Elway. To name a few, Steve Young, Troy Aikman, Kurt Warner, Aaron Rodgers, Drew Brees, to name a few. Keep in mind that until his last two seasons, before ridding the coattails of Terrell Davis and Winning the SB, probably Kelly was considered better.
Nawwww.
I was a major fan of the 90's Broncos. I only own 2 NFL jerseys: B. Sanders and T. Davis.
But when Elway won he had SOOOO much talent around him. He was great - but not all-time great like Brady winning a superbowl with no other help but an underrated J. Edelman.
@@leonardoyi3183 🤡
Leonardo Yi GTFOH
@@leonardoyi3183 Anyone that ranks greatest quarterbacks puts Elway over Morino any day. People say hes overrated cause he go demolished in three superbowls, Elway got to those superbowls by himself. The drive against Cleveland, he got all the yards. Should Elway be higher than 23 yes because he was so consistent while being in the NFL. Actually when he retired he was the most winningest quarterback.
My childhood hero and to me the greatest QB to ever play. He was "dogged" because he never had a team that could back him up. A great QB alone is not enough. It was only because of his greatness those teams ever got to a superbowl much less 3!! Finally when Davis came BAM. Back to back and that was at the end of his career. I wish he'd had better teams more often....no telling how many rings he'd have.
At least 6 lol crazy
R.I.P Marty
One of the best Players in the world.
Elway should be higher on this list
I call him The Most Determination QB of all time
RIP Marty Schotteheimer. You should be in Canton.
3:12 Well said, Judge
💪🏈
Best of all time
John Elway should be way higher.
The greatest coach to never go to a super bowl
Elway was destined for glory straight outta high school.
0-3 for glory until the end of his career with the repeat glory.
marty's got class Elway 47 comebacks # 23 of all time #1 in broncos history! #7 John Elway
Some think Marty belong in the hall of fame. I hope one day he get in.
As a Chiefs fan I always hated old Horse Face, but you have to admire what he did in his career.
The media hated Johnny... But he was the GREATEST... Hands down...
RIP Marty Schottenheimer
John Elway is the true GOAT I would take him over Terry Bradshaw or Joe Montana any day.
Hes better than Bradshaw. Better than Montana? I dont know about that
I still get emotional watching elwaywin a superbowl amd im not even a brocos fan
23? Maybe top 5....def top ten!
Imagine if he had Shanahan saport with decent offense around him earlier
Elway 23 and young 81? Who made this list rodney dangerfield?
he's #23 and Bart Starr is #51? ridiculous. these lists as so historically myopic.
No way him and Marino are 23 and 25. No frigging way lol
Belongs in the top 10
RIP Coach
Marino had quickest release but elway had the strongest throwing arm best long ball
We will never see 47 come from behind touchdowns ever again
Shannon Sharpe should have got some love in this top 100 smh he was a big part too, Elway should also be higher tbh
Marty loves him and Dan Reeves hated his guts--go figure?
Reeves didn't hate Elway. They just disagreed on Offensive philosophies. Elway naturally wanted a more passing attack Offense and Reeves wanted to grind it out with the running game. When Elway and Shanahan started to develop passing plays behind Reeves back is when Reeves put his foot down and was ran out of Denver. However, Elway and Reeves made up and Reeves went to his HOF inauguration.
Should be number one
so good
Overall most ‘accuracy/touch/strength’ arm ever.
The people who made this list put Brett Favre and Peyton Manning over John Elway and Tom Brady.
That's almost enough to make me not even watch.
Yeah, I'm just watching for the highlights! lol Elway was my fave and I'm not even a fan of Brady, but that's ridiculous. Top 3 QBs to me are Brady, Montana, Elway.
William Clark this was made in 2010
drlee2 Brady isn’t better than Manning if we’re going off of success then Tom Brady is the best ever but if we’re going off of skill and ability then it would be Montana, Elway, Manning
Stanford legend
We’re whooping them for you Marty❤️❤️❤️ go chiefs
Pure Grit
Honestly should've been at least top 10 all time
wow. just wow. stick to watching basketball
+. Anonymous man just look at his stats and those comeback drives you probably a band wagon panthers fan so you know nothing about football
... you see his PFP, right?
I do agree with you though (Obviously).
Prolly No. 10
I think he is ranked in a good spot. Elway was something special, but I wouldn't call him the greatest of all time or anything like that
1. Peyton Manning2. Joe Montana3.John Elway.4.Tom Brady5. Brett Farve6. Roger Staubach
1. Joe Montana
2. Peyton Manning
3. John Elway
4. Aaron Rodgers
5. Tom Brady/Dan Marino
Brady, Montana, Elway, Manning...I'm still waiting to determine who is #5. Too hard to figure out currently. Once Mahomes wins 3 SBs, I'd probably put him there.
So many morons on here saying Marino was a better big game QB... How? Elway went to 5 Super Bowls...He played poorly in the Super Bowl, but he took 3 teams to the Super Bowl who had no business being there. Elway went to 5 and Marino went to 1. Which means Elway had to win 2-3 playoff games each time he went to those Super Bowls. Each playoff game is a big game and Elway won more playoff games then Marino. Pure passer it is Marino, better winner John Elway.
My issue is that they didn't seem to realize that it's possible to defend Marino without bashing Elway. Not to mention what was rarely mentioned was that Elway was constrained by Reeves' outdated offensive system and mediocre pass protection that can make any QBs numbers look weak.
Elway had no chance in those Super Bowls either, he dragged poodles into pens with pitbulls with his clutchness. He may not have the stats, but throw him on any of Montana's teams and he has 400+ TD passes all time and maybe 5-6 SB rings. Marino himself said he would choose him if he had to build a team around any QB that wasn't him.
Yep, and he did it in the SAME freaking era as Marino! lol The excuse for Marino is that he didn't have enough talent. Well, Elway didn't exactly have HOF talent in the 80s either and he carried his team to 3 SB appearances in the same era that Marino only made 1 SB appearance.
Dolphins fan and I agree with ya.
The browns were good in the 80’s
They just had to face John Elway
LOL! 23? Payton " I stink in the play-offs" Manning is 8? LOL! They must just pull these names out of a hat.
Can anyone tell me the name of the person at 3:04
I think it's Randy Robbins, #48, a DB for the Broncos for several years during the '80s.
@@harryhighland591 Thanks a lot
Bring
Back
These
Denver
Uniforms
He was ranked to low on the list, what made it infuriating is they put manning ahead of him on the list.
He is the nephew of one of the teachers in my school
How is Jim Kelley not on this list?
Poor elway had to play great teams in those first 3 bowls
He is definately top ten..& 2nd Greatest QB after Montana.
Better than Montana
The goat qb
should be top 15
