"The Drive"

History Published on : 1/1/2005

Denver quarterback John Elway led his Broncos to fourth-quarter comebacks 47 times during his Hall of Fame career.  None of these comebacks is more memorable than the 1986 AFC Championship Game against the Cleveland Browns. Elway engineered "The Drive" that took the Broncos 98 yards to tie the game during the final seconds of regulation play. Denver then marched 60-yards on nine plays in overtime to win the game on Rich Karlis' 33-yard field goal.

Visitors to the Hall of Fame in Canton, Ohio can see a display in the Exhibition Rotunda that breaks down the drive and showcases a jersey worn by Elway during the 1986 season.
