)) El 'Denver Broncos' son un balón de fútbol profesional de de América equipo con sede en Denver, Colorado. Ellos son actualmente un miembro de la American Football Conference (AFC) División Oeste en la Liga Nacional de Fútbol (NFL). Los Broncos comenzaron a jugar en 1960 como miembro fundador de la American Football League y se unió a la NFL como parte de la AFL-NFL de fusión. Ellos juegan en Invesco Field at Mile High. == == Historia de la franquicia ((detalles | Historia de los Denver Broncos)) 1960-1998 === === El 'Denver Broncos' fue fundado el 14 de agosto de 1959, cuando béisbol de ligas menores propietario Bob Howsam fue galardonado con una franquicia de fútbol americano de la Liga Americana Carta. [1] Although they were part of the uniform change in 1997 and most players wanted to wear them, the only player who vetoed wearing them was John Elway, thereby delaying their eventual introduction. An oddity of their pants are that the home white pants have an orange stripe, but the road white pants have a navy blue stripe. In 2002, the Broncos introduced an alternate orange jersey with a navy blue stripe going up the sides. The orange trades places with the navy blue on this alternate jersey, as it becomes the dominant color while the navy blue complements. This jersey was most recently used in an October 4, 2009 game vs. the Dallas Cowboys, and the Broncos plan to wear them for one additional game during the 2009 season: November 9 vs. the Pittsburgh Steelers.[2] Former head coach Mike Shanahan was not a big fan of the alternate orange jerseys.[3] The Broncos previously wore orange jerseys as a throwback uniform in a Thanksgiving Day game at the Dallas Cowboys in 2001. On November 16, 2003, the Broncos wore their white jerseys at home for the first time since 1983, in a game vs. the San Diego Chargers. This was compensation for a uniform mix-up after the teams' first meeting in Week 2 at San Diego's Qualcomm Stadium earlier that season, when the Chargers were the team that was supposed to declare their uniform color. The Chargers were planning to wear their white jerseys, but the visiting Broncos came to the stadium in white, and were fined $25,000 by the NFL as a result. When the two teams met at Invesco Field at Mile High later that season (Week 11), the NFL allowed the visiting Chargers to choose their uniform color in advance, and they chose navy blue, forcing the Broncos to wear their white jerseys at home.[4] In 2009, in honor of their 50th anniversary season as one of the eight original AFL teams, the Broncos wore their 1960 throwback uniforms (brown helmets, mustard yellow and brown jerseys) for games vs. the New England Patriots (October 11) and at the San Diego Chargers (October 19).[5] [6]

Home field
For most of their history they played in Mile High Stadium, which became one of the shrines of professional football for its record ongoing streak of sellouts. The AFL Broncos played at the University of Denver's Hilltop Stadium from time to time, including the first-ever victory of an AFL team over an NFL team: The Broncos beat the Detroit Lions on Aug. 5, 1967, in a preseason game.
The team has sold out every home game (including post-season games) since the NFL merger in 1970, with the exception of two replacement games during the 1987 strike (but both were sold out before the strike). During home games, the attendance is announced to the crowd, along with the number of no-shows (the fans subsequently boo the no-shows).
The stadium's legendary home-field advantage is regarded as one of the best in the NFL, especially during the post-season. The Broncos have had the best home record in pro football over the past 32 years (1974–2006, 191–65–1). 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 the since demolished old Mile High Stadium. Sportswriter Woody Paige, along with many of Denver's fans, however, often refuse to call the new stadium by its full name, preferring to use Mile High Stadium because of its storied history and sentimental import. Additionally the Denver Post had an official policy of referring to the stadium as simply "Mile High Stadium" in protest, but dropped this policy in 2004.
The Colorado altitude has also been attributed as part of the team's home success. The stadium displays multiple references to the stadium's location of 5.280 pies (0,99999999792 mi) above sea level, including a prominent mural just outside the visiting team's locker room.
