Is the Denver Broncos. :elefant:

Not sure if everyone already knew that or who cares. But I was looking at some stuff and realize that we've never lost 12 games in a season before. And then I looked at the other nfl teams and realized that were the only team to never lose 12.

So with that said, I hope it continues and hope we win our last 2. Lets keep the streak alive. :rockon:

Gives us something to be proud of :lol: Even when were not at the top, at least were not at the very bottom. But I guess thats what happens when your always mediocre year after year. Never get a top 5 or top 10 pick to impact your team and just stay mediocre.

Just figured I'd share that. :rockon:

I know I sounded like a broken record and people gave me shit for it, but that's just one of the reasons that for years I have been pointing out that Broncos fans are among the most spoiled in the league.

We FINALLY found out what the other half (fans of 31 other teams) feel like.

I agree. :salute: I've been saying it to people as well. Some of my buddies here who are Broncos fans say they are tired of losing. And I just said that while I sure do hate losing, We have it good compared to other teams. Now if a Lions or Browns fan said they were tired of losing, then they'd have a right :lol: But just 1 bad year. We've had several mediocre years, which I hate, but losing this many games in 1 year sure sucks.

We are spoiled though and to go 50 years and counting maybe without losing 12 games in a season is pretty good.

I've also mentioned how our bad years arn't like other teams bad years. Our bad years ( until this year) would be 7-9 or 8-8. Then you look at other teams bad years and its 2 or 3 wins a year. So we do have it good.

Time to get back on track and hopefully we won't lose this many games again for a while. :rockon:

Nope, just means that people should have been more grateful for the team Bowlen put on the field for 25 years, and once this team gets turned around, do so once again. Need to get the stupid ass notion of "anything but a SB win is a failure" out of their head.

Meh. The more I look at things the more I think Bowlen has lucked out in some seriously incredible ways.

The Broncos didn't beat the Cards and I don't expect them to beat Houston or San Diego, so it looks like we'll be able to go above and beyond that 12 losses mark.

At this point, 9-7 and missing the playoffs would be a victory.

Sadly, I think anything but a superbowl win is a failure.

Thats why they plays these games, to get to the super bowl and win it. There is no prize for not winning.

Its not like everyone gets a participation ribbon for just showing up.

Not going to root every week for the broncos to win 10 games and make the playoffs and lose and consider that a "winning season".

Sorry just gotta disagree there.

Ok, I'm good with that. Unlike most fans, you seem to be one of the few that must not be really upset by the last two years. It's no worse than losing in the SB.

I agree with you. Although i can enjoy seasons where we have success what you just stated reminds me a lot of what Sharpe said which was basically if you dont win a SB the season is a failure. But back then it seemed the players had more determination and drive to succeed. Now, the last few years i just dont get that sense from our players. Its like a lot of them just come and pick up a paycheck. Its time to change that mentality in my opinion.

Yeah, talk about waking up to the futility some other team's fans have felt for years! Yes, the old 8-8 or 9-7 with no playoffs sure sounds good to me about now!

In any case, I really think we beat down the Texans day after Christmas. And IF we have the chance to knock the Bolts out of the playoffs I can see the Broncos playing the spoiler. I'm keeping my fingers crossed and saying we end up 5-11 by winning the year out. I think we would have beat the Raiders too if not for the field and weather, which contributed to the coaches being so conservative with the gameplan.

In any case, I don't WANT the 1st or 2nd pick of the draft. We need to EARN our way back to contention, not be given it out of pity because the team is so bad. That's what the #1 pick is, you know. This team and it's history is too proud for that and I hope we never see it!

Yes, a superbowl defines success for a season... especially for the proud franchises...

But I've been proud for a long time that I'd never seen my team draft in the top-10... and they had to trade up to have a shot at a franchise QB at 11... and then statistics like the ones that are the basis for this thread.

There may only be one kind of success in the NFL...

But there are certainly multitudes of kinds of failures.

I know that the kind of failure I'm watching now is not one I can be as proud of as the others I've watched.

I know not everyone agrees though.

St Louis Rams: 7 times -- 1962, 1991, 1994, 1998, 2007, 2008, 2009




Bills and Bengals could each have another 12 loss season after this Sunday and the Broncos could have thier 1st 12 loss season.

We'll see.

But I guess from a losing standpoint. Bengals and Falcons have the most 12 loss seasons with 9. I know some people want to lose just to guarantee the #2 pick. But I don't want to witness our 1st 12 loss season.

Would be nice to keep the streak alive for another year.

But figured I'd show every teams 12 loss seasons on here. :elefant:

The streak that I knew was unsustainable but the best indication of how remarkably consistent the Broncos have been was:

Since Super Bowl XII, the first SB against the Cowboys after the 1977-1978 season, the Broncos had more Super Bowl appearances than have had losing seasons.

The 7-9 year under Shanahan drew it to six apiece, and this year made the 7th losing season since 1977. But WOW, what a run. We've had it pretty good the last few decades.

It has changed in the last few years but, from '76 thru about 2005, the Broncos had the highest winning percentage in the NFL. I don't think we've had a higher pick than the Jay Cutler pick at # 11 in all that time.

Well, if the Broncos HAD ended up with the #1 overall pick that year instead, it still works out great, and the end result is largely the same (except the Broncos wouldn't have to give up assets to acquire Elway).

If that's what it takes to get an Elway or Manning, then so be it. I'm sure the Colts fans are, in retrospect, pretty glad they had the worst record in 1997, giving them the #1 pick that defined their franchise for over a decade.

Except that San Diego had the worst record that year and selected Ryan Leaf instead of Manning with the #1 pick. Given how much of a crap shoot the draft is I'd rather not have to pay out the $$$$$$$$$$$ for the #1 or #2. Heck I'd prefer staying out of the top 5.

The Colts definitely drafted ahead of the Chargers. The Chargers actually didn't even have the #2 pick that year. They had the #3 pick. Arizona had the #2, and the Chargers traded a king's ransom to move up one slot to get Leaf at #2 (an extra first round pick and a second round pick and Eric Metcalf - to move up one slot!)

Pretty good stat. I never knew that. Another thing thats neat to know is that We havn't been shutout since 1992. No other team has a longer streak. Figured instead of starting another thread, I'd just post this here for now lol.

Heres all the teams and how many times each of them have been shut out:


Kansas City Chiefs: Last: 2010 --13 times.
Miami Dolphins: Last: 2010 -- 18 times.
New York Jets: Last: 2010 -- 23 times.
San Francisco 49ers: Last: 2010 -- 13 times.

Denver Broncos: Last: 1992 -- 9 times.



So the ONLY teams to not get shutout since 2000. Is the Broncos, Colts, Giants, and Chargers. Just figured this was interesting.

And besides the expansion teams, the Broncos have been shutout the fewest times. Only the Vikings have been shutout fewer times with 7.


Just thought this was more interesting facts on how our franchise may not be the greatest, but as far as losing goes, were one of the best at not being a pathetic franchise. :salute:
