i’d put this failed aspect of elway’s career much more on dan reeves and bowlen himself , seriously why wasn’t it apparent to bowlen that reeves wasn’t good enough after the calamity super bowl vs the redskins , reeves had already served seven years as hc at this point that was long enough , an owner can be loyal , blindly loyal or just plain stupid , take your pick .
