The main goal of every NFL football team is to win the Super Bowl.  If you have experienced your favorite team winning an NFL Championship, you know it is a great feeling. Because of that, there is a desire among fans to see their team win the big game every year!  Realizing that this is not possible, losses are just a part of the game. Besides, it wouldn’t be much fun if the Denver Broncos won every game and NEVER lost would it?  Well, it might be, but like I said, that is just not possible.

Losing helps you appreciate the wins more. As we settle into the offseason, I’ve taken some time out to reflect on some past Bronco losses and have rated them from one to ten.  The list is just my opinion and would probably change if I rated these same games next week.  You may ask why I am focusing on the losses. Don’t worry Bronco fans, next week I will focus on the top ten wins!   (more…)

By my calculations, ESPN, The NFL Network, and NBC are scheduled for approximately 18 hours of pregame coverage of Super Bowl XLVI.   You can either tune into these programs to find out the latest team news regarding injuries, final game day preparations, pre-game meals, Saturday night bed checks, team bus arrival times, and other useless trivia knowledge, or you can search the internet for Bronco Super Bowl history. The New England Patriots and New York Giants may have the spotlight today but The Broncos are still the most important team to us.    To help get you started, I’ve included a brief synopsis of the Broncos Super Bowl history.

The further a team advances in the playoffs, the harder it is to accept the fact that life as we knew it, for the last three or four months, has changed.  Depending on how your teams’ season ends, it will definitely impact your feelings as you start the, sometimes difficult, transition into the offseason.  Ask 49er fans or Raven fans how they felt one week ago compared to how Bronco fans felt the night we watched the Patriots annihilate our team – in the first half alone!

In order to try to help live through the transition into the offseason, I will tune into this evening’s pro bowl and keep an eye out for the Bronco players to see how they contribute to the AFC team – both on the field and on Twitter.  Another thing that seems to help is to randomly search YouTube for Denver Bronco related videos.  The last couple of days, I have done that and listed some of the great plays from the Broncos history below.  I have added a brief synopsis of the play or situation, as well as, a link to each video.  The plays were numbered by the individual who uploaded them, so you may or may not agree with the ranking.  I have listed them below in chronologically order.  The order doesn’t really matter because after this season, the list definitely needs to be revised.  Enjoy!

The draft is coming, so I will start to look at impact players at the college level. I am anxiously waiting for the release of next year’s schedule, and I plan to revisit some of the amazing games we experienced this season.
