"1983 week 1 Broncos at Steelers. John Elway's 1st start."
From Maurence Shipley
This was literally John Elway's rookie debut and it was against one of the best defenses in the entire NFL, in the Pittsburgh Steelers, who punished NFL QB's and runners in 1983, who were 10-6 and won the AFC Central. John Elway was simply overmatched in this game. Broncos coach Dan Reeves had veteran Steve DeBerg, who was a solid, staring QB in the NFL, but chose to go with Elway instead.
