Perhaps that documentary might explain why Elway's throwing style looked like Elway was pulling a turd out of his back pocket...........especially compared to just about every other QB that played the game that I can think of.
And of course, the documentary won't tell you that he was really only good to a point & was clearly 2nd-tier like these stats & the overhead camera does:
During John Elway's career (1983 to 1998), there were 19 QBs who started 100+ games. Here is where Elway ranks in major statistical categories:
Completion%: 16th
TD%: 13th
INT%: 10th
Passer Rating: 14th
Yards per Attempt: 10th
Adjusted Net Yards per Attempt: 11th

There's a reason he always had to make a comeback in his games.
