Denver Broncos!
The Denver Broncos are a National Football League team based
in Denver, Colorado. A charter member of the American Football League, they were
a backwater small-market team that met with little success in their early years
but have since become one of the elite franchises of the league after having
advanced to the Super Bowl six times. In their first four appearances, they
suffered successively lopsided defeats, achieving near-legendary status as
frustrated losers before winning back-to-back Super Bowl championships in 1998
and 1999 under quarterback John Elway, running back Terrell Davis and coach Mike
Shanahan. For most of their history they played in Mile High Stadium, which
became one of the shrines of professional football for its unbroken string of
sell-outs and its famous home-field advantage percentage for the Broncos,
especially during the post-season. Mile High Stadium was one of the NFL's
loudest stadiums, with steel flooring instead of concrete, which may have given
the Broncos an advantage over opponents. Since 2001, they have played at INVESCO
Field at Mile High, built next to the former site of Mile High Stadium.
