IIRC, Denver fans used to spit on Elway his rookie season, as he went into the locker room. Now, he could be roasting a baby on the steps of the capitol, and I highly doubt much would be said by the very same people.
Elway 1983: 7 TDs, 14 interceptions. 47.4% completions. Seahawks beat Broncos 31-7 in the wildcard game. Hey, it’s not easy being a new QB in the NFL.
