JohnChimpo Posted March 17, 2021 Share Posted March 17, 2021 3 hours ago, NeptunePenguins said: Jim Carrey carried that Sonic movie to success. There were no good actors or actresses in that movie at all but him. The other actors/actresses were HORRIFIC, yet that movie was great because of ONE man. He is one of the greatest actors of all-time and had the best carry job of any actor ever. I am asking if John Elway in the 1980s was viewed like Jim Carrey is viewed today? In that he carried many teams/movies to success that had nothing without him. Today? What year is this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingseanjohn Posted March 17, 2021 Share Posted March 17, 2021 John Elway was carried by Terrell Davis iyam. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could argue different era, which I agree with to an extent. But his peers put up superior numbers and that's who I judge him against. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

childofpudding Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 5 hours ago, NeptunePenguins said: To be fair, this is a jab at Dan Marino more than anything. As someone I know said Jim Carrey was the best thing about the films he is in and carries the cast often, so that means Dan Marino was carried. I haven't seen the movie those two were in so I can't comment on Marino's acting abilities. Fine QB for certain though. Thanks for explaining this and making your stupid OP even more idiotic.

Apparition Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 This thread is causing me a lowkey epistemological crisis because now I feel like I have to watch the Sonic movie to respond to it, but I really don't want to. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apparition Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 Also Jim Carrey has had a more consistent career than John Elway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His first 3 SB's came at a time when the NFC Championship was the real Super Bowl. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
