He’s won as a “pocket QB” before. Hell, he won the Super Bowl as a pocket QB. People just latch onto a narrative.
He’s going through a bad slump. Similar to what all QB’s have done before, elite ones too, and I’m sure Elway did as well. |
Yep... at best, it's an exaggerated narrative, like he was a complete gunslinger/scrambler before... and at worst, it's just dumb.
