NO, that's not all it means.
I don't recall Elway having too many 4th quarter comebacks in the last few years of his career. The bulk of those came in the years when he had absolutely no weapons.
Put Montana or Manning on those teams. Would they have had the success that they had with Elway? I have serious doubts. Of course, we have no way to know.
People can punish Elway for his mediocre stats all they want to. They will assume those are a function of his suck, when in fact they are a function of a severe lack of a supporting cast.
Like I said, pick your QB when your team HAS to have a score. Mine's Elway, every time, and his play during his career supports my stance very, very well.
Unfortunately for Elway, he didn't get the opportunity to play with hall of fame players at every position like Montana and Manning have. If he had, maybe he wouldn't have any 4th quarter comebacks and a few more Super Bowl rings.
Why can it be used as a negative but can't be used as a positive?
