text: Elway to Sloter: "I’m telling you from experience, going from the preseason to the regular season is a big jump’ and we didn’t put him in that situation." Nope. He put Brock in that situation because Brock proved how well he can play by his impressive performance in Houston and Cleveland. (Btw, instead of Elway giving credit to Brock getting us to the SB, he should have given credit to the defense because that's who bailed an aging Manning and rookie Brock out the entire year.)
