Anthems and Protests ---
While we certainly understand the frustration by fans on all sides of the discussion, we have decided to keep the Broncos Country message boards separate from politics. Recent events have brought the NFL to the forefront of political debates, but due to the highly emotional and passionate discussion it tends to involve, we think it’s best to continue to keep politics and this forum separate. Yes, the forum is meant for discussion, but we’d like to keep that discussion to football as much as possible.
With everything going on in our country, it would be nice to keep our complaints and cheers purely related to football here. If you feel passionately, there are plenty of other outlets available to you to express your opinions. We know this isn’t the most popular decision, but we ask that you respect it.
Thank you for understanding.
--Broncos Country Message Board Staff
Ironic Elway is one of the winningest QB's of all time and SB MVP. Threw for more yards than Rivers has walked in his lifetime. Ceredentials Rivers will NEVER achieve. Start tapping the brakes son.
Maybe because Elway played longer? Really....you should just stop now and go back to the GD board.
Elway threw for 4,000 yards ONCE in his career.....Rivers has done it TWICE in 4 years.
Elway passed for more than 27 TDs ONCE in his career....Rivers has done it TWICE in 4 years.
And don't go there with the 2 SBs.....those were all Terrel Davis....we all know that.

You are seriously going to try to compare Rivers to Elway? ROD has tried to do this and left the boards crying. Come on now you guys started this and you cant win. Rivers is better than any QB currently on the Den roster. But some genuis tried to bring Elway into this. This will only lead to failure on your part.
I know Rivers took the role of cry-baby no show choke in the playoffs. Thats the face of your franchise. You must be so proud. And it seems to me that Sanchez did enough to beat you in your house, something your cr-baby no-show choke in the playoffs franchise QB did.
Our QB can make the playoffs and can win in the playoffs.
You QB's can't even become starters. LMAO!
2-8 to finish the season is the best QB you have on your roster. That's horrible.
Its more funny that you tried and failed to smudge the legacy that is John Elway with the pale shadow that is Rivers. You Charger fans sure are a funny bunch. Start making insane predictions all over the board about your rookie never carried a ball in the NFL RB and your never accomplished anything franchise QB.
Elway and his impressive career numbers. Like his pathetic career QB rating, which is worse than Rivers worst year. Rivers is already 5 times the passer Elway ever was.
Elway's true colors showed when he faced real teams in the SB and got SMACKED, like Rivers has never lost in the playoffs. Like the choker Elway is.
Elway didn't do anything until TD carried him. The highlight of Elway's career is a tackle he took and went flying like a rag doll.
You mean like Den fans hyping up their 3 year project FB/QB?? Or their 4th round pick nobody WR, Decker??
LOL! Atleast our QB has achieved more in 4 years in the NFL than Den as a franchise has in the last 12 years. OUCH!

Left crying?? I was searching for rebuttals to my facts and no one had any.
Rivers in his first 4 years starting is light years, listen to me LIGHT YEARS better than Elway was in his first 4 years or 5 years. LIGHT YEARS!
Which is understandable, considering he is the better QB. It will only get better.
Outside of Den, most consider Elway OVERRATED! Can't argue the numbers. His numbers from QB rating, avg, comp%, TD% are nothing to write home about.

Sorry ROD, but Rivers has a long, long, long way to go to be in the class of Elway. It's just a fact. I think Rivers should try not sucking in the Playoffs before anyone even mentions his name in the same breath as Elway.

I didn't bring the comparison into play....but, I'm not going to ignore it. Rivers' first 4 years are superior to Elways - stats and wins - it's a fact.

Umm, didn't Rivers sit his first two years? Charger fans never like to bring this part up. Apples and Oranges in so many ways.
When Elway played, especially early, DBs were actually allowed to play defense. There is no denying the difference in eras.

Want me to compare Rivers first 4 years in the playoffs to Elways? Think about it before you say yes.
THINK HARD!! Because spinning will just be laughed at.

You mean the way he took the Broncos to the SB by his fourth year in the league? Or how he played in the Playoffs as a Rookie, what was Rivers doing as a Rookie?

That was in Elway's 4th year, no go back 3 more seasons and tell me how many times do you see Elway say in the top 10 of QB rating?? Or the many other 4 rows of QB stats.
