If a QB is weak, the defense can press up. If they know the QB is good, they have to play back. Who the QB is matters as much as anything. That's why 20 percent of the salary cap for each team on average goes to the QBs. 20 percent tied up in one position for 2-3 guys.

What does any of that have to do with Elway? You're talking about how important the position is, but you keep harping on how the NFL was "back then" when QBs had to have special written permission from the commissioner every time they wanted to attempt a goddamn forward pass.
Tell us more about how Reeves made Elway hand the ball off all the time.
