Thread: Broncos will get to choose jersey color for Super Bowl 50

Well the Superdome is indoors and New Orleans is pretty widely considered by far the best Super Bowl location.

Should always be played indoors. There is already enough variance in football without weather adding to it.

I know most people disagree, and it's pretty much a matter of what you find fun as a fan.

I do like the challenge of the elements, but I'm sure I'm in the minority. As of now (which I know weather forecasts are never concrete until the day of), it's supposed to be in the 60s, cloudy with chance of rain.

That's the weather literally every day in SF.

Their weather is damn near perfect, IMO.

Except right now, it's miserable. I love the rain, just hate working in it.

We'll get grass stains the the Panthers will have shit stains. Lucky for them they will be wearing black.

Since we've got a whole thread for this, check out Mason's article on the subject:

In seven previous Super Bowls, the Broncos are 0-4 in orange jerseys, 1-1 in white and 1-0 in blue. The Carolina Panthers, their Super Bowl foe, will wear their black jerseys; they've lost both playoff games they've played in them -- two years ago to San Francisco and seven years ago to Arizona.

This is not the first time a team has chosen to wear a jersey other than its primary home jersey when it had the option. In Super Bowl XL, the Steelers had the jersey choice, but opted to wear white after winning three consecutive postseason games on the road. Pittsburgh defeated Seattle, 21-10.

The Broncos are the fourth team to choose to wear white for a Super Bowl, joining the Cowboys in Super Bowls XIII and XXVII and the Washington Redskins in Super Bowl XVII. Designated home teams that opt to wear white in the Super Bowl are 3-1; designated home teams that wear their colored jersey are 17-28 and have lost nine of the last 10 times.

Kickoff is scheduled for 3:30 pm PST. Not exactly a night game for the players.

Dilemma.

I have wore the same Orange jersey for the play offs so far, now, do I keep with that, or do I change into the white to match the players.....

Anyone know own where to get a SB 50 patch. Want to put one on my Manning jersey.

I think most people do like the elements. As a neutral fan it can be fun to watch a game played in bad weather, but when I have something at stake or just for the sake of variance not deciding the outcomes of games I prefer good conditions.

Plus, I like offense, and weather hurts offense.

football should be played outdoors. It should be raining or snowing for every Superbowl.
