Oh, that's your thing? The game was just played differently?
Whatever, man. You're gonna tell me Warner's incredible 1999 season was in this brave new era that Elway never got to experience? Marino? Young? Again, Favre? Hell, ever look up Len Dawson's stats? He had two seasons with more TD passes than Elway's best season.
You would have been better off going down Garcia's path of, "Only people who saw him play will know how good he was because of the eye test. And if you disagree you're an idiot."
