00:00John Elway, the most gifted quarterback to ever play in the National Football League.
00:05I can still remember feeling that responsibility.
00:08He can do it all.
00:09And the expectation.
00:10This is his third loss in the Super Bowl.
00:12I had to sacrifice everything to be the best.
00:18Everything changed for Colorado in 1983.
00:21Been the most spoken about name in American sports.
00:23John Elway.
00:24John Elway.
00:24John Elway.
00:25First time I saw him practice, I'm going, man, this guy's a freak.
00:28He is going to be one of the greats of all time, I think.
00:31He got the nickname the Duke of Denver.
00:33The Duke of Denver.
00:33Duke of Denver.
00:34He's got the ball.
00:35Touchdown.
00:36He was shy, sweet.
00:38He's not neat and pigeon-toed.
00:40And all of a sudden, I'm dating this superstar.
00:43His first year.
00:46I'd never seen anybody get beat around like he did.
00:50Everyone was expecting John was going to take us to the top right away.
00:54With Dan's offense, it was different than I was used to.
00:57Bam, bam.
00:59My head was spinning.
01:00Was he overblown by the media?
01:02Part of the growing pains of coming into the NFL.
01:04People have no idea how hard this guy worked to be who he was.
01:10For me, looking over the last 50 years, my whole life, you know, winning was the most
01:16important thing.
01:18I think that was at the sacrifice to my family.
01:20Depending on whether he won or lost, there was definitely a mood shift.
01:24I used to be pretty intimidated with him.
01:26This comes with the territory.
01:28My parents' marriage was crumbling.
01:30He really started to pick up on the gravity of the situation.
01:33We got death threats.
01:34All the focus and the media and everything was on John.
01:37He helped a city transform itself.
01:40Well, let's be real.
01:42He was going to have to win a Super Bowl to be coronated.
01:46John took it personally.
01:48He had one goal.
01:49The frustration level grew.
01:50Before he's ever going to be considered a great quarterback, he has to win one of these
01:54things.
01:54Those are the sacrifices that athletes make to be great.
01:58Touchdown Denver!
01:59Greatness is more than just a performance on the field.
02:02My dad always said, you can't take the easy way out.
02:08So this was the moment.
02:10From over.
