We love John Elway because he never blinks at trouble. A gunslinger at heart, he was born to be a hero, standing tall and fearless in tough situations that make mere mortals shrink. Step back, folks. Let No. 7 handle it.
In Elway we trust. Forever and always. Correct?
Well, not so much. Not now, as the Broncos are doomed to back-to-back losing seasons for the first time since 1972.
This team is a mess with Elway’s fingerprints all over it. Who are these guys wearing orange and blue? The Broncos have no identity, no quarterback and no coach that inspires confidence in the fan base.
