How many Super Bowls did Elway lose?

Answer 1

Denver quarterback John Elway was part of three losing Super Bowl teams... he lost in '87 and '88 to the Giants and Redskins and in 1990 to the 49ers. He redeemed himself in 1998 and 1999 with victories over the Packers and Falcons. He played in a total of five Super Bowls... each time against a different team. As a team, Denver has appeared in six of the big games with a 2-and-4 overall record. Their first appearance was in 1978, a 27-to-10 loss to Dallas with former Cowboy Craig Morton quarterbacking the Broncos.

Oddly enough, when Denver changed from their classic "Orange Crush" uniforms with the blue helmets, they began winningSuper Bowls. As a result, there's little chance you'll see them in a "retro" mode anytime soon.
