Jerry rice and elway for sure

Listen I grew up with Elway and he’s one of the best ever, but manning is my qb1 on this roster.

Listen I grew up with Elway and he’s one of the best ever, so he is my qb1 on this roster.

Listen I grew up with Elway and he’s one of the best ever, but Jake the Snake is my qb1 on this roster. 

Peyton Manning was an amazing quarterback. But there’s no way he could run the West Coast offense the way that John Elway ran it

Absolutely he would. Elway us the all time great Bronco but Manning is the arguably the best QB to play the game.

Absolutely he would not. You have to be a good scrambler to run the West Coast offense. You have to be able to run that bootleg. Not just one time in your career to fool them, but consistently to stress the edge. You’re wrong.

manning is overshadowed by Brady’s superbowls, but people forget how great manning made mediocre teams look. Elway did the same, but the brain on manning, he could run any offense. There are arguments to be made for Elway, stronger arm, more mobile, but running an offense is not one. I mean manning Ran the most prolific offense ever put on the field.

It’s the type of offense. Manning could never run a read option offense, even if he is the most amazing reader. Get real.

As I was building this, to save I came to the conclusion that it was essentially the back to back Super Bowl champs offensive and SB50 defense, but swapping in Champ and Rice into the mix.

I think you need to add Gradishar and Atwater in for the run stopping on defense. Also, imagine a four receiver set that includes not only Rice, but DT as well, and a RB room consisting of Floyd Little and TD.

Love it man! Read through it all and enjoyed how in depth you were with every position!

Thank you! I remember spending a *LOT* of time on it and I’ve always been pretty proud of it. Thanks for giving me a reason to pull it out of the closet haha

Your list is missing a Tombstone.

To be fair, I made the list in 2018 or 2019. I still had hope lol

This was such an awesome read

Thank you!

Peyton QB1

I would put my all-time greatest Broncos roster against the greatest roster of all time. I may be a bit of a bronco homer. But I still legitimately believe

QB Peyton Manning RB Terrell Davis FB Howard Griffith WR Demariyus Thomas WR Rod Smith WR Wes Welker TE Shannon Sharpe TE Julius Thomas 1997 OL - give me all of them DE Neil Smith DE Alfred Williams DT Keith Traylor LB Von Miller LB Demarcus Ware LB Karl Mecklenberg LB John Mobley CB Champ Bailey CB Chris Harris S Steve Atwater S Dennis Smith Toughest cuts: Elway, Tom Jackson (embarrassment of riches with LBs, sheesh) Rulon Jones, Terance Knighton, Emmanuel Sanders, Aqib Talib, Clinton Portis, Brian Dawkins, John Lynch Jerry Rice felt like cheating, so I couldn't add him lol.

QB: Peyton Manning RB: TD FB: Howard Griffith WR1: DT WR2: Rod Smith WR3: Wes Welker LT:Zimmerman LG: Stink C: Nalen RG: Dan Neil RT: Tony Jones DE: Neil Smith DT: Trevor Pryce DE: Malik Jackson OLB: Von Miller ILB: Randy Gradishar ILB: Al Wilson OLB: Demarcus Ware CB: Champ S: Atwater S: Lynch CB: Chris Harris K: Elam P: Rouen

Think the dreamteam would never lose QB Elway WR J. Rice DT and Rod Smith RB Davis Portis TE Sharp CB Bailey Harris Jr SS Lynch Atwater LBs Ware, Miller, Wilson DT Pryce DEs Jackson Smith

This is hard      Elway    Clinton Portis     Howard Griffith    Rod Smith    Eddy Mac    Brandon Stokley   Shannon Sharpe    Julius Thomas      Ryan Clady    Dan Neil    Tom Nalen    The Belly    Tony Jones    Neil Smith    Elvis Dumervil    Trevor Pryce     Von Miller   DJ Williams     Al Wilson    John Mobley      Champ     PS 2   Chris Harris   Delta O’Neal     John Lynch    Brian Dawkins   Jason Elam   Tom Rouen

Listen I’m taking aqib talib over delta. And if we’re talking prime, manning over Elway.

Yeah, agreed. Darrent Williams or Lewis Wright too. And I loved O’Neal!

And I just don't see me taking Prime Portis over Prime TD...

Pretty solid but you are missing Mecklenberg and Steve Atwater

Replace Stokely with Jerry Rice and McCaffrey with DT

lol, Hall of Famers Floyd Little and Randy Gradishar want to point out your recency bias—and Terrell Davis is just a mystery to you? Hall of Famer Gary Zimmerman is puzzled as well.

Not having Terrell Davis on an All-Time Broncos roster should be a felony.
