There are certain professional athletes you just don't compare anybody to. Among them would be Denver Broncos legend John Elway, one of the all-time great players and a fixture on any ball knower's Mount Rushmore of NFL quarterbacks.
Of course, leave it to a former Raider like Howie Long to make an absolutely asinine and blasphemous comparison to John Elway for a young player who is still cutting his teeth in the league.
Long had the stones to go on live television and say that Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams is for this generation what John Elway was for his generation.
