We'll find out a lot about Elway's capability as a GM now that he's begun life without a first ballot HOF QB.
You guys can claim all the past SB stuff all you want to prop your team up, but neither John Elway or Peyton Manning is walking through those doors with a helmet and pads on next year.

Elway went 8-8 with Orton and Tebow AND still won a playoff game. He went 9-7 with a 7th round QB and was in the playoff hunt until the second to last game of the season. Was it a great ending? No, it was a disappointing ending.
