Why John Elway is my favourit QB.

John Elway is by far my most favourit QB in the NFL. I say this because he is never leading his team in a negative way hes always setting new goals then acheiving them, and beating them. He made many amzing comebacks in his career, the biggest being "The Drive" the play that led the denver broncos into winning the AFC championship on january 11th 1987 between the Denver Broncos and the Cleaveland Browns. After the browns scored their touchdown making the score 20-13 they proceeded to punt the ball to the broncos. Denver muffed off of that punt and played off their 2nd yard line.

A muff is when the team recieving a punt drops the ball without having possession. In this case the team may recover the ball but is not able to advance. However if the ball is fumbled the team may recover the ball and advance.

So starting on their 2nd yard line it leaves them 5 minuts and 2 seconds to advance the ball 98 yards to score a touchdown in order to tie the game. John quickly organized "The Drive" a series of 15 plays to score a touchdown making the score 20-20 with 39 seconds remaining. Then in overtime denver won by a feild goal.

This is not the only comback he has made but definately the most remarkable comeback. Possibly of all times in NFL.
