Amazing to think they didn’t face each other again for 13 years
That's insane.
@@edwardoutlawjr8154The old scheduling rules paved the way for a lot of goofiness. The Jets went something like 20 years without facing the Cardinals and Jim Kelly NEVER played against the Chargers.
And when they did play each other in '98, they played each other again like 3 weeks later in the playoffs.... insane!!
@@baracksays9401 Elway meanwhile faced New England 9 times in between Miami matchups
Terrible job by the schedule makers
All-time great uniform matchup
Dick Enberg was one of the many voices of my youth. The weather is perfect. God this was football. I know I'm being nostalgic but man such happy memories.
This was a great selection. Thanks for posting. Just a shame that with the funky scheduling back then the Broncos, and Dolphins didn't square off more. As spoiled as I was with Montana, and then Young, I always marveled at Elway and Marino's genetic talent at the position. Simply amazing.
Dan Marino reminds me of the Muhammad Ali clip where the GOAT tells a reporter to hold up their hand and he'll hit is six times before they count one-two.
Marino flinches his arm and the ball is already forty yards downfield.
Best QB in history. No rings, sure. But also no refball in his favor. No rule changes to suit him. Just twenty years ahead of anybody else.
That shocking turtle Marino😂
@@sodica81 You live under powerlines, don't you?
For those that do not know Mario & Elway only met twice in their careers. They wouldn't meet again until 1998. Amazing
3 times if you count playoffs
Damn.... this brings back childhood memories!! 2 legends, "throwback" uniforms, nearly a foot of snow in Denver. Would love to see a hi def full version of this game!!
My God, I forgot just how legendary John Elway's arm strength was in his younger days. An arm touched by God called by Dick Enberg, a voice touched by God. The first pass he throws here is a lobbed touch pass...57 yards downfield.
And shoutout to Dan Marino. My God, he sees a receiver and that throw is in the air so fast. Two fantastic superstars going at it when I was a four year old Bronco fan. Where I am from in Colorado, you had no choice. And you could rob four banks at 2 p.m. on a Sunday, no problem. The whole town was just not worried about anything else. I quit watching the NFL in 2015 when it made some very bad decisions, but I did not miss a game for 34 years. Not bad.
We Bronco fans used to be so jealous of Dan Marino until about 1995 and Mike Shanahan's tenure. We kept screaming, "Why can't they build a team around Elway the way they do with Marino down in Miami?!?! We have John Elway....against 11 players."
I have a cousin who, ahem...dated isn't probably the right word, let's say, had a congress with Broncos Tight End Clarence Kay. Funny to see him shaking his hips (probably like he did with her). She was like a rock star at a family party because she'd hooked up with a Bronco. That was how rabid my neighborhood fandom was.
“…had a congress..” 😆
Elway’s arm was truly insane, as was Marino lightning release.
Gnarly last paragraph
I attended this game at Mile Hign, Marino was already stablished as a bonafied star QB and Elways was still trying to find his footing. The rest is history.
Marino could make every throw in his sleep 🔥🔥🔥
ugly motion to throw, Turtle Marino
@@sodica81lol it's perfect you know nothing 🎉😂
@@BrianHiggins-pi5fk turtle Marino 7-14 in playoffs😂😂
I was at that game. Almost 40 years ago....but they looked like today's offenses.
Two Legends 👍
These 2 and Montana were such a goated trio. What a time for football.
oh man.... it was a great time to be an 80's kid
Dont forget Jim Kelly
@@theyearofourlord145 And Boomer Esiason, Randall Cunningham, Phil Simms, Dan Fouts, etc.
Add Dan Fouts to that list!
@@LiamDeege Phil Simms had a great defense with him and Cunningham's best season was with 1998 Vikings.
One of two regular season games between Marino & Elway
The schedule formula was way different than it is now
Agreed!!!
How about all that snow in Denver in late Sept early October?
Just to let you know this is the same year the Dolphins are the first team to beat the 85’ Bears and their defense 38-24.
And only team. And beat them good .
And the only team to beat them that season!!!
@@stevecvino I forgot to put "only" lol
@@adamdorgant9454 True that...Although I forgot to type "and the only team" lol
Two of the strongest arms of all time.
Im just lucky to have seen his whole career. Still the GOAT imho
THIS WAS COOL.............
People remember the 2008 patriots missing the playoffs at 11-5, but before them? The 85 Broncos had the same record, and missed the postseason
I still find that surprising even if I remember that to the back of my head every day that Miami barely won the East in 2008.
yeah, back then there were only 5 teams from each conference in the playoffs. 2008 Pats missing at 11-5, but the Chargers were only 8-8 and got to go because they won their weak ass division
@@leogetz3570 The Broncos had their shot to win the West that year, but they f*cked it up and let a 4-8 to 8-8 San Diego Chargers team claim the division title.
yeah, that's right!! Denver's collapse. If I remember, the Chargers were flying back from Tampa maybe and got the word on the plane that Denver lost, which gave them their chance to win the division the next week.@@LiamDeege
@@leogetz3570 And then somehow in the wildcard game, they manage to take down Peyton Manning and send Marvin Harrison to retirement.
The two best passers in NFL history - these QBs today don't come close to throwing the ball like these two did.
12:18 Elway escaping a near sack then launches a 40 yard rope.
Crazy how the very next day after this was posted the dolphins crushed the broncos 70-20 😂
Imagine if Elway had a decent coach and talent around him for more than just last 3 years of his career
He did. Dan Reeves, remember?
@@bjchithahahaha funny 😂
@@rkid727 Are you agreeing with me, or are you saying a guy who took 4 teams to a Super Bowl is a bad coach?
@@bjchit Think you have it backwards. Elway took Reeves to 3 Super Bowl. And then when Elway had a great coach, he stomped on Reeves antiquated schemes. Reeves was a decent coach. But he was out coached in every Super Bowl and if he didn’t have Elway, he’d been out coached in most playoff games. Every playoff game Reeves coached with Elway was a nail biter. There’s a reason why. He almost destroyed Elway. So yes, I believe I disagree with you. He wasn’t a good coach. He was a decent coach who was lucky to have 7.
@@rkid727 No, I don't actually. Elway was flat out terrible in most of those playoff games, and no one was beating the NFC in the Super Bowl during most of the 80's and early 90's. There's not a whole lot you can do when your star QB decides to go colorblind in the Super Bowl either. Not every game was a nailbiter, and the only time Reeves had a bad year was when he had Dave Brown as a QB and the Flacons being devastated with injuries. Elway half assing it for a few years (and admittedly not having much help outside of Shannon Sharpe) almost got him benched for Tommy Maddox, not because Reeves was a bad coach.
Let's Go Dolphins 🐬🐬🐬🐬🐬🐬🐬🐬🐬🐬🐬
Huge snow piles on the sidelines in September. Never change, Denver!
ridiculous that these 2 only played against each other twice!
3 times if you count playoffs. Which is weird, because it was 13 years after this until they played again. And then only took like 3 weeks to meet again in the 98 playoffs. The NFL definitely had weird scheduling back then. These 2 should've been at least 6 or 7 primetime games. Marino played against Manning more times in 2 years than he did Elway in 16 years
Let's go Miami, get to 3-0! - Steelers fan.
This would be the last game between these two teams for the next 13 years
Miami Dolphins Against Denver Broncos From 1985 Thanks For Uploading
Elway had a rocket for an arm.
So did Marino.
@TheRealDill93 indeed and the quickest release I for one have ever seen
@@edwardoutlawjr8154 we’ll probably never see arms that fast and powerful again.
@@TheRealDill93I Definitely Agree With Both Of You.
I too concur,Elway had the deep down field cannon for an arm,But Marino had the quick release and cannon for an arm straight down the seam,he didn't need to put a lot of air under it,but oh man could he absolutely riffle that ball 40-50 yards on a straight line and perfectly accurate!! I've seen so many shots of the ball literally a couple inches in front of the defenders diving fingertips,but John could put it about 70 yards down field with some accuracy,BOTH greats,but Dan was always better and it still sticks with me that John got to get back there two more times and five total
Imagine these two in todays offenses 🤯😱
I only saw the 2nd regular season matchup between these two (I think there's a playoff game in there as well?) It's just INSANE how two of the greatest QBs around only faced each other twice in the regular season in their careers. If they played in this era of the NFL they'd have played way more than that.
Awesome video
I Love You NFL Throwback And Keep Up The Good Work
Love this!!!!👍👍
wow the potatoes back in the day had tremendous HD picture
can yall post the full super bowl of the raiders vs eagles?? cant find it anywhere on youtube.
Wow, just wow
lol where did nfl throwback get this game? This looks like it was rip off of another floating around on youtube. Give us a proper HD version, these two legends deserve better quality.
That is understandable but this was when analog television was still around so yeah the quality you see is what you get
What a game!
You all can't enhance the quality before uploading these?
This was a good 😌 game nfl throw back you have good 👍 videos good 👍 time length keep up ⬆️ the good 😌 work
It very rare that it snowed in Denver on September 1985
69 yards. NICE
Marino 4 Life 💪😎
The year the 11-5 Broncos didn't make the playoffs
And a pity that they couldn't win a Super Bowl with John Elway until the very end.
Denver ended up missing the playoffs in 1985 despite an 11-5 record
Two Legendary Quarterbacks
I know it's a mile high, but how was the weather snowy and below freezing temperatures IN SEPTEMBER of 1985??
uh.... an early snow storm I'm guessing. At that elevation it happens every once in a great while, though usually nowhere near that much snow, maybe an inch or 2
Is this snow in September?
Marino was a big dude
Combine those yards and add 120 more lol
“Broncos country let’s die”😂🤣
Fridget temperatures in only Week 4???
Friendly reminder Dan Reeves is the only coach to go to four Super Bowls who is not in the Hall of Fame (as is always the case with the Broncos; see examples Gradishar, Randy; Shanahan, Mike; Smith, Dennis; Mecklenberg, Karl)
Shoutout to Tight End, Clarence Kay! Clarence, if you are reading this, a cousin of mine told everyone at a family party that you took her virginity. I learned the word virginity from you, my man!
That’s because Elway took him to 3 of those.
I wonder how long that sell out streak lasted. Colorado Avalanche fans had a very long sell out streak as well.
The streak is still going on. The Covid season didn't even interrupt it as the games were already sold out, but attendance was limited
70-20
Elway to Marino
Why such the Bad Quality? I’ve seen games in the 70s that looked Better
Just superhuman throws all game.
My family are die hard Dolphin fans. But you have to think, Miami really failed to get Marino anything better than a mid OL, and a average defense. If he was drafted by the Steelers, he wins at least 3 rings, possibly 4.
70-20 lol they tried to hype us up
Marino will always have Yeah But attached to his career!!
Elway about had that same title until Shanahan and Terrell Davis saved him LOL...Miami just never gave Marino enough help..their run game was always horrible or subpar at best..their defenses were always suspect too...I felt bad for him after his last playoff game...losing 63-7 wasnt how he deserved to go out
@@carsonc29 The loss that will always haunt Marino is losing to the Pats at home in the '85 AFC title game as the heavy favorites!! Had they won that game then they would've had good chance of defeating the Bears in Super Bowl 20 given that they were the team to defeat them & ended their chance to go undefeated on Monday Night Football.
Yea but Marino still one of the greatest quarterbacks ever
@@travistaylor4342 True!! Because if it was just that alone then inferior QBs like Johnson & Dilfer would be looked at more favorably than Marino. But that's not the case because of the body of work.
@@wilnerolivier7971I remember that game well. It was the Pats Superbowl. The big deal was that they never won in the Orange bowl in like 15 yrs, I believe. It was monumental for them.
I like the 98 playoff match up better 🤣🤣 GO BRONCOS!!!
Wasn't that a blowout?!... lol
Too bad Marino never got a ring...
😂😂😂Barefoot Kicker???
I remember watching this game live.....Marino the best pure passer ever imo....boy do I miss real football today's version is pathetic soft & unwatchable that's why I don't watch it
Everyone looks like they are running in sand
I never liked John elway
