Broncos in Orange

[jkrdevil]

Well, the Broncos have brought back their orange alts this year (they didn't wear them last year). The circumstances are very simular to the last time they wore them in which they lost. Sunday night football in the snow.

I hate these. The Navy Blues are far better, then again Navy Blue is the best color.

Well navy blue isn't my favorite colour, but I like it--other than that I agree with you...

while i love the broncos in navy, i dont mind them wearing their orange jerseys every once in a while. its a tribute to their orange crush years and imo its the best use of an alternate jersey in the nfl.

Hate 'em? No way!

The Broncos belong in orange.

Well, I hate to break it two you but after winning 2 Super Bowls in Blue that is the uniforms that the Broncos will be remembered in mostly. The orange will be associated with losing and the blue with winning. Because 20 years from now what we will see most from these the 80's and 90's will be the Super Bowl highlights. They lost in orange and won in blue. So they will be thought of as a blue team and not an orange team.

agreed.

As do I, Denver has the second best Alternate Jerseys in the NFL, second only to the Chargers.

I don't know how, but these orange ones look better than the ones they wore against the Colts in '02.

You know, I was listening to the game at work, and I thought to myself "I bet any money they're wearing either orange or all navy blue" and low and behold I just turned on the TV then saw this thread. I think this has to go down as the worst weekend for NFL uniforms in history.

agreed.

must be why so many people with no taste are sporting thier "throwback/alternate jersey" woodies this weekend

[bipolarbear]

i think the navy ones are godawful, but the orange ones are nice.

i like it when the number outline is darker than the base and actual number on a jersey for some reason. just looks sharp to me.

I can't explain this one, but here it goes anyway.

When I think of the Broncos in orange, I think of the "Orange Crush" jerseys with the ligter blue helmets. Maybe it's because the blue was lighter, but that was a good looking uniform. If the Broncos want to go old school, or orange for a game, go back to these.

Once the logo and uniforms were "Nike-fied", style went out the window. So now the Broncos are navy blue and orange. Fine. But making the current jerseys orange makes them horrible. It's too bright. It's probably the same orange, but when put next to the navy blue, the orange is too bright, and it makes an ugly uniform even much harder to look at.

At least it's almost a white-out.

[DEAD!]

I don't mind them having orange as an alternate, but they should be in navy blue.

As for favourite alternates? The Texans and Panthers have, by far, better alternates than the Broncos and Chargers.

No team looks better in Orange then the Broncos these uniforms are great.

you had it right for the first 6 words

I keep saying, this would have been a perfect weekend for throwbacks. And one of the better looking throwbacks would have been the Broncos in the Orange Crush orange with the royal blue helmets. (No, we don't want the Broncos to have throwbacks that go back to the vertical stripes on the socks.)

YES! this is exactly how I feel too!!

Orange crush unis = good. Current navy unis = pretty good. Current orange jerseys = blah.

Is it me, or do they only wear the orange alts when it snows on game day on a Sunday night? Maybe they do it for visibility. More likely, it's coincidence, but I am sure it is a helpful coincidence ...

Actually this is only the second time ever they have worn them. Last time was against the Colts in '02 in the snow.

I definately like them, I just think navy pants would look tighter. I know it screws up the pant wedge striping, but they could have solid navy pants if necessary.
