In the first year that the Broncos were given a Super Bowl trophy (which was not later reclaimed once the willful and illegal salary cap violations were revealed), the Broncos played in four postseason games. Elway's pass yardage in those games? 223, 170, 210, and 123.
In the second year that the Broncos were given a Super Bowl trophy (which was not later reclaimed once the willful and illegal salary cap violations were revealed), the Broncos played in three postseason games. Elway's pass yardage in those games? 182, 173, and 336 (25% of which came on one play).
When the Broncos were given the Super Bowl trophies (prior to discover of their willful and illegal salary cap violations), they did so in spite of Elway, not because of him. He had been relegated primarily to handoffs.
