There were some really fun players to watch on the Denver Broncos 2013 team. Here are some we wish won a Super Bowl with the team.

The 2013 season was a magical one for the Denver Broncos. The team broke many records, including Peyton Manning, who threw for 55 touchdowns, and nearly 5,500 yards—both NFL records.

Manning would not be on this list, however. He helped the Broncos become Super Bowl Champions following the 2015 season when the team defeated the Panthers 24-10.

Denver had a remarkable free agent class in 2014. The big names that they signed were wide receiver Wes Welker, cornerback Aqib Talib, safety T.J. Ward, and defensive end/outside linebacker DeMarcus Ware.

Unfortunately, they fell short of a Super Bowl victory, losing to the Seattle Seahawks 43-8. (Sorry to remind everybody about that one).

It just showed that any team can win any game at any time and day. The Broncos were slight favorites to win the game.

Obviously we would have wanted all of the players on the roster at the time to win that game. But there just were some that stood out.

Some players are fan favorites. Something about certain players just makes people love them and want them to succeed. Here are five players that we wish were able to win Super Bowl XLVIII.
