Everybody knows Aaron Rodgers career stats are better than Elway's - significantly better in most every category: Comp.%, yards, TD passes, Ints, on and on. Yet it happens their career W-L records (reg season, updated this week) records are virtually identical:

Popped into this thread on an old page, talking about John's all-time ranking and 1987 League MVP award. I've always wondered about that award, but looking here the answer seems obvious:
Rice and Montana split their vote.
The page or two where I popped in, and this page I think miss Elway's true accomplishments:
1) Day he retired, he had won more games, and started more SBs than any other QB 2) In 15 years as full-time starter, advanced to seven AFCCGs and 5 Super Bowls 3) Signed on as Broncos GM in 2011. In his third year, with eight offensive starters his own acquisitions, Broncos fielded the greatest offense in League history in 2013 (won AFCCG, lost SB) 4) Two years later, fielded an historic defense, all 11 starters and four subs w/ most snaps all Elway acquisitions, won SB.

I thought the horse man got "promoted upstairs"
Wouldn't he have access to the facility any time he wants? [Reply]

That is 24% and ranks Elway 40th all-time percentage wise under those conditions, with Patrick Mahomes ranking 1st and Joe Montana ranks 5th. Add to that Elway's worst passing stats were in the 4th QTR.
Whoa! Sounds like he was the king of falling behind! [Reply]
