SIAP but saw this wonder if it's true.

I know Broncos faithful loves the "Orange Crush" but seeing as how we're still winless in Super Bowls when we're wearing Orange, I would have no problem with a change.

They should change the whole damn thing. Start all over. Maybe bright yellow. Go back to yellow and brown, with numbers on the brown helmets. And rock the vertical socks. Might as well.

So we're going to switch to the powder blue that the San Diego use to wear with the burnishing orange and dark blue trim? (Kidding)

I wouldn't be surprised if we returned to the original orange and blue of the 80's but incorporated with the new style. So scrap the burnishing orange for a tad lighter tone as well as get rid of the navy blue for the brighter blue they use to don.

There's no way this is real. My favorite is the old orange and royal blue logo/unis. I prefer the cocaine snorting horse logo but I think the only change I would really care about is making the navy blue less navy and more royal blue like it used to be.

80s orange and blue are the best unis, but the all navy unis are right behind it. Orange jerseys are the best though. I doubt Elway would change primary jerseys after only a couple of years though.

Since the initial change in the late 90's and the back-to-back Super Bowls, the uniform has sort of become synonymous with 'coming up short', look at the 2005 AFC Championship Game, all the Wild Card games we lost before and after, last year in the divisional round of the playoffs and this year in the Super Bowl? I can easily see why the Broncos Organization could ponder a change, reinvent their image in a way. If they maintained the current style but changed to the lighter shade of orange and royal blue of the 80's, it becomes a combination of past and present. And Denver won the AFC West 8x, won the AFC Championship 4x and went to 4 Super Bowls wearing those colors, so just maybe?

So do I but yet, we're in the minority, and it's not even close. NightTrainLayne is right though; the unis didn't get our offensive line blown up from the first snap till the final gun.

That said, last time we changed unis it worked out pretty well: Won repeat SBs and suddenly the whole NFL was all about the swoosh; Nike must've LOVED that.

Actually, I always called the Longhorns' color "puke orange;" my puke's rarely as bright as Tennessees version, but usually a dingier color more like Texas'.

Unless NFL rules change that's not possible. They instituted a one helmet per player rule this year for "safety" reasons, so unless Denver literally repaints their helmets each week, that's not possible.

Secondly, the NFL only approves one alternate jersey per year, so the most number of jerseys you can have is three.

This Franchise's whole history is filled with "coming up short". I honestly don't think the uniform makes a difference being that Elway lost three Super Bowls with the old 80s style ones..

Well, if it's the Super Bowl you're worried about, they can simply switch to the alternate for that one game. The 49ers were allowed to do it back in the 80s. Maybe the orange helps us to *get* to the Super Bowl since we floundered for a decade in blue before switching back to orange.

It won't matter in 2014 anyway because we'd be in the road whites if we return next year.

There's a lot of NFL hoops to jump through too. I think this is too fast. Two years ago they brought it up at the league meetings in March 2011 and it was approved in October 2011 for the 2012 season. And that was just a switch of the alternate and home jersey.

Tned knows the process better than I do, but if there's a change it would likely be for 2015.

I thought all that was to get the approval. When makign that sentence, I was thinking of the Baltimore Ravens that had to quickly change their logo because they were sued for stealing the one they put on their helmet. Perhaps that was a different situation, or, perhaps since that wasnt the entire uniform and only the logo? Eh... :whoknows"..... I admit I don't know.

I'm pretty sure the NFL requires a one year notice on changes to the uniforms. I read (don't remember where) that in large part it has to do with the loads of inventory made by their official suppliers that needs to be unloaded.

I'm having a hard time finding anything else but for whatever reason I keep thinking there is a rule against major changes within a certain time frame. The Broncos could get quicker approval last time because they didn't have any major changes in over a decade, switching back would be a different story I think.

Yea, that's about right. Also, while I'm not sure I'm buying the rumor, there was a right up I read last night on the Orange Page or something like that claimed to know someone in the organization (I think is what he said) who said that the Broncos were looking for a new uniform in 2015 and that it would be an all new design.

Who knows. The idea of a new uniform doesn't surprise me too much. Broncos have had a fair number of changes over the years, so it might be about time.

Personally, on the orange vs. blue thing, the reason I like orange is simple, you can actually tell when people are wearing orange to support the team. When it came to blue, you couldn't tell if people were wearing Broncos colors, bears colors or coats. For that reason, I don't like dark blue/black as a home color.

As to superstition, we've only won SB's in blue. Well, we've only won SBs with TD in the backfield, and he's not coming back, so I guess we are just screwed and will never win another.

I agree with Tned about blue and how many other teams have blue as one of their primary colors. The other reason I'm not a fan of the dark blue is I remember Denver having to play an 11:00 MST game early in the season with the home team (Miami?) designating the Broncos wear their home unis. The result was Denver roasting in the FL sun while the home team played it cool their white jerseys.

According to this report there is a possibility that the Broncos are getting new uniforms from Nike, it's suppose to be the longest working change Nike has undergone and orange was suppose to be the primary color of the change, but the Broncos have called and have asked that the primary be changed. The change does include the Broncos current logo as well according to the report and it will be unveiled before the 2015 NFL Draft. Here is the link:

Nothing has been confirmed, and the whole thing would likely be hushed 'if true' till near the draft IMHO. Of course I expect that if there is truth to this that come the off-season there will start to be reports pointing to this being more then a simple rumor.

NFL Rules won't allow what Mo? The Broncos to change their uniforms? The Broncos have had the current design for twenty years. Or are you talking about the league knowing about the change a year in advance? Because according to what I read the Broncos have had Nike working on this since they got the contract with the NFL, so I am sure that some already know about this (if true). I am not saying I am buying it completely, but I could see them doing it, especially in light of the clubs hiccups and shortcomings since the first two seasons of donning that uniform.

Case in point, when the Bears and Packers wore throwbacks this year as their alternate the only thing they could do helmet wise was remove the logo).

IIRC Welker had a new helmet when he came back from his concussion and there was NO report of a broken helmet.

As for multiple uniforms the expense of equipping 60 plus players throughout the year would be on the moon, so that rumor is like you said bogus.

I'm sure he was allowed to change for safety reasons. I assure you that's a rule.

I guess I don't agree it's because of cost, I think it's because of rules and branding. If college teams can cope with the costs I know the pros can. The NFL makes these rules for branding reasons.

As far as the helmet goes. The reason this year teams didnt wear more than one helmet like the PRIOR year is because of the NFL rule changes. Now that we are heading into a NEW season all teams need to do is get fitted for more than ONE helmet like they did at the beginning of last year. Meaning, if they want to wear throwbacks then players must have theirs fitted PRIOR to the season starting.


At least that is what I recall reading earlier in the season. It's not that you can't have two, it's that it must be properly measured and fitted before the season even begins fo all players. That is why they had to scrap the throwback helmets this year.


Safety protocols cover the NFL and teams from future lawsuits.

But the policy is ridiculous because rosters constantly change, So are they saying the only players who can participate in throwback games are players who were there for training camp? Would they have told the Colts they can't play Trent Richardson last season because he was acquired after the season began?

If I were a team in that predicament, I would tell the player to wear the regular helmet and tell the player the team will cover the cost of the fine from the league's dress code nazis and to hell with uniformity.

Sorry but getting absolutley destroyed in SBs wearing orange has turned me off a bit. Keep them for regular season but never again wear them in a SB.

Greatest regular season....

Moving away from the orange doesn't mean completely removing the orange, it just means that it might not be used as a primary color for a jersey top. Could still be involved in the overall scheme. I can see adding a slate grey along with the Navy, white, and orange...and coming up with some INCREDIBLE looking designs, and doing it without "removing" orange from the Broncos.

The Broncos will be my team no matter what they wear. Of the designs I've seen, I'd prefer the one with the classic D logo and the classic orange and royal blue compared to the others.

According to that so-called insider from the site I provided said that the logo would be changed, so that means if he is correct the MHR design is completely bogus as is a number of others posted.

I also agree with Rav, I could see Denver utilizing a third unofficial color, like slate grey. But it would likely substitute the white which could be cool if used correctly.

To a certain degree, but looking at what we read about the so-called rumor, the other information and the changes being taken by Nike in partnership with the NFL? We're seeing pretty steady change, as I said it feels more real then false, that doesn't mean that I'd be surprised either way.

Even before Nike came on, teams like the Vikings, Bills, Ravens, 49ers, Bengals, Chargers, Cardinals, Lions, Jets, Dolphins, Redskins, and Falcons have all made some sort of change in their uniforms in the last 10 years. If you extend it back 20 years you can add teams like the Broncos, Bucs, and Pats to that list. I don't think Nike is suddenly going to radically change everyone's unis. I could be wrong, but some teams like the Giants, Cowboys, Bears, Steelers and Packers I don't see ever changing their uniforms.

to say the least the old MoJo has worn thin even switching to Orange last year did not get them over the hump, like it did during the two spuper bowl years.

they would be sillly not to make a change ASAP, lots of revenue being left on the table. most fans would rush to the sotres to be first to wear the new colors.
