A good friend of mine flew out to Denver yesterday. His friend from HS moved out to Boulder awhile back and started his own business with some random recipe he came up with. Not sure if anyone of you Colorado folks have heard of it but it is called Tender Belly. Apprently, some kick ass bacon. So his friend who makes/run it (isn't into football at all) but every year serves the Broncos with his product. He is in an out of the facility serving it. He invited my friend to join him this year. Sent me some cool videos and pictures at the Broncos facility. Got to talk to John Elway who loved the food they served. He said some of the players that came up to him to thank him were Casey Kreiter, Joe Flacco, Dalton Risner, Derek Wolfe. Random but fun story.

Stranger things have happened. Wait....no they haven’t. Besides, Brady’s geriatric status would make him a liability in the rarified air of Denver. How many games has Brady won in Denver during his career? Bet it is a pale number.

There is a video on this page of the Iowa homies that started the company.

I guess Elway would stay away if Brady's record meant that much. 2-6 in Denver. Then again, very few visiting QBs have ever done well at Mile high.

I see a 11/2017 article that says he was 3-7. I wonder which opposing QB has had the best success in Denver.

Probably Phillip Rivers in recent history. After that my guess would be Stabler, Plunkett or Gannon.

Elway should have produced the next Elway the old fashioned way, but that only led to Osweiler.

That would make sense. The ones that had the greatest opportunity. The rivals.

Selected before Wilson, Noles and Cousins.

Then the infamous tread up for (the amazing) Paxton Lynch!

I was the only broncos fan that wanted Wilson sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo lighten up some

DC said there was something about Cousins but it was after the Draft but maybe I am wrong on that..

All the same QB's are damn hard to find plenty bust.

How you find them is to keep swinging

look how many QB's have busted for the Browns and Houston

Worth noting: Elway’s biggest critics are people who have neither lead a team to a Super Bowl (let alone 5 of them) nor built a team capable of reaching a Super Bowl (let alone 2 of them).

Just putting things in context.

Because context matters.

Elway’s greatest struggle is to find a QB. Many GMs across the league have that same struggle.

If you think about Elway he spent most of his life trying to figure out defenses so it is reasonable that he could find defensive players easier the offensive players. I have hope for Lock but he has a lot of work to do to be the QB that meets expectations in Denver as the standard has been set high.
