The longest completion Elway made in a game was 80 yards.

Im not sure how far he can throw the ball, but his chief export is pain.

Didn't Kordell Stewart throw it like 70 yards in the air on the last play of that Colorado - Michigan game back in the 90's? That seemed like an incredible throw. I imagine it would pretty hard to throw it 100. Maybe someone should ask Kyle Boller to try.
BTW - I always knew that Ty Law was the one who was right there trying to make the play for Michigan, but I never realized it was THE Rae Carruth that made the catch... |

John Elway wouldn't be able to get a throw off because SupBro would have already bull rushed the center and sacked the quarterback.

There is a competition in the offseason that is a skills challenge for NFL QBs and it includes a throw for distance. I can't find it online, but I'm pretty sure that no one ever got to 80 yards.
There is no way that Elway, or any other QB could throw 100 yards in the air. |
