Denver Broncos All-Time All-Stars

Let’s say you’re the head coach of the Denver Broncos, deciding which players should start in a Super Bowl matchup against the toughest team in the NFC. But instead of choosing from the current roster, you have every player in the team’s nearly 60-year history in your locker room. Who starts at quarterback: John Elway, Peyton Manning, Craig Morton, or Frank Tripuka? At linebacker, do you play Bill Rowmanowski, Karl Mecklenburg, Tom Jackson, Randy Gradishar, DeMarcus Ware or Von Miller? Which player is your featured running back? Floyd Little, Otis Armstrong, or Terrell Davis? Combining career stats, common sense, and a host of intangibles, veteran sportswriter Andrew Mason imagines an embarrassment of riches and sets the all-time All-Star Broncos lineup for the ages.
