"If there's a book that you want to read, but it hasn't been written yet, then you must write it." These words by Toni Morrison sum up why I got into writing after being an avid reader for most of my childhood. After juggling with words for years, it still comes as a surprise how much there is to write and read. Despite being a software engineer, the will to keep on writing got me involved with poetry and later content creation. 

The additional desire for storytelling and my history of athletics paved the way for EssentiallySports. With the dream to return to my athletic roots and absorb as much knowledge as I can, I am grateful to keep on learning new things every day about various sports.

Despite being more of an off-court reader, the thrill that game coverage instilled within me got me more involved with the NFL. Even though the stories revolving around the NFL are very intriguing, the hype and energy of the games is the literal cherry on top for me. When I am not immersed in NFL gameplays and off-court stories, I am usually lost in writing poems, cooking, and playing with colors.

The San Francisco 49ers [https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/nfl/san-francisco-49ers/] fumbled another Super Bowl. Once again, the Niners faulted against the Kansas City Chiefs [https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/nfl/kansas-city-chiefs-nfl/], this being their third Super Bowl loss in the last 11 years. But they shouldn’t fret as four teams have lost more Super Bowls than them! The New England Patriots [https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/new-england-patriots/] and the Denver Broncos [https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/nfl/denver-broncos/] lead the way, followed by the Buffalo Bills and the Minnesota Vikings. How many Super Bowls have these franchises given away? A SUPER BOWL LOSS HURTS Leading the table for most Super Bowl losses are the Patriots and the Broncos, with five each. While the Bills and the Vikings have 4 to their names. But the Patriots have played for more Super Bowl titles than anybody else. Tom Brady [https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/GettyImages-914352914.jpg]MINNEAPOLIS, MN – FEBRUARY 04: Tom Brady #12 of the New England Patriots sits on the bench after having the ball stripped by Brandon Graham #55 of the Philadelphia Eagles late in the fourth quarter in Super Bowl LII at U.S. Bank Stadium on February 4, 2018, in Minneapolis, Minnesota. The Patriots’ first participation and loss came in 1986 when they were defeated by the Chicago Bears 10-46. Their fifth and last loss was against the Philadelphia Eagles in 2018 by 33-41. However, the very next year at their 11th Super Bowl, the Patriots won against the Los Angeles Rams by 13-3.

And they ended up losing for the first four times, beginning in 1978 to 1990. The Broncos recorded their first win against the Green Bay Packers at the 1998 Super Bowl. Their last loss came at the hands of the Seattle Seahawks in 2014, however, they won the Lombardi trophy in 2016 against the Carolina Panthers. But the Niners have a somewhat inverse trajectory? THE NINERS HAVE AN AWFUL TRACK RECORD Just like the Broncos, the Niners have also gone to 8 Super Bowls. And they were one of the most successful franchises in the league at the big game. The Niners won their inaugural 5 Super Bowls from 1982 to 1995. The Niners lost another Super Bowl [https://imengine.prod.srp.navigacloud.com/?uuid=204B1DD0-C12D-4F92-9BAC-FB027538AB7C&type=primary&q=72&width=1200] However, their luck has turned in the 21st century. Since they can’t manage to win the Super Bowl after gaining a lead in all three games. First one against the Baltimore Ravens in 2013 and then against the Chiefs in 2020 and 2024. Do you think the Niners can leave behind their Super Bowl worries? Let us know your thoughts on the matter.

This year's Super Bowl marks another one lost by the Niners. But the Patriots and the Broncos lead in that arena as well!

<h2 style="text-align: center">Denver Broncos 2022: News, Schedule, Roster, Score, Injury Report</h2>
<p style="text-align: center">The Denver Broncos entered the American Football League (AFL) and joined the NFL as part of a merger in 1970. The initial stint wasn’t smooth, to say the least, and the Broncos weren’t competitive during the 10-year run in the AFL. Their woes continued into the early days of the NFL as well. Chiefly, they did not have a winning season until 1973.</p>
<img class="aligncenter wp-image-498446 size-full" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/20201231150519/broncos.jpg" alt="" width="1200" height="900" />
<p style="text-align: center">Four years later, the Denver Broncos qualified for the playoffs for the first time in franchise history and advanced to Super Bowl XII. Their fortune turned for the better after 1975 and the club only suffered nine losing seasons. They scalped eight AFC Championships and three Super Bowl championships, the most recent being in 2015.</p>
<p style="text-align: center">Their high hit-rate in Super Bowl appearance means they also share the NFL record for the most Super Bowl losses (tied with the New England Patriots-5).  Not to mention, their lofty success has produced several pro-bowl Hall of Famers and MVP candidates through their years of dominance at the top.</p>
<img class="aligncenter wp-image-498440 size-full" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/20201231150316/cbs-1.jpg" alt="" width="1200" height="675" />
<p style="text-align: center">The 2020 season left plenty to be desired and the Denver Broncos were officially out of contention early on. They placed 4<sup>th</sup> in the AFC West rounding out a losing 5-11 overall record. The Broncos failed to improve on their 7-9 season from last year. What’s more, they suffered their fourth consecutive losing season.</p>

<h2 style="text-align: center">Logo</h2>
<p style="text-align: center">The original logo depicted a football player riding a bronco horse, and this image stayed with the team for one year. The next logo that ran from 1962 to 1967 gave the earlier design a more fierce look. The football player was now standing on the back of an orange horse. Both the Bronco and the player looked more brutal.</p>
<img class="aligncenter wp-image-498449 size-full" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/20201231150654/denny.png" alt="" width="1000" height="560" />
<p style="text-align: center">The following years removed the rider and a ‘D’ emblem was used which saw a bronco horse emerging vertically drawn in white with a black outline. From 1997 to modern-day, the Denver Broncos Logo has remained the now-iconic horse profile facing right. The bronco’s head in white features a dark outline and the main and eyes are orange colored.</p>

<h2 style="text-align: center">Owner Achievements</h2>
<p style="text-align: center">Pat Bowlen was the majority owner of the Denver Broncos right up to his death in June 2019. The Bowlen family, including two of his brother, purchased the team from Edgar Kaiser back in 1984. Bowlen served as Broncos CEO until July 2014 where he stepped down from the position due to the progression of Alzheimer’s disease.</p>
<img class="aligncenter wp-image-498455 size-full" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/20201231150945/patty.jpg" alt="" width="1920" height="1280" />
<p style="text-align: center">After Bowlen acquired the team in 1984, the Broncos briefly held the highest winning percentage of any active franchise in the league. The metrics stood at 334 wins, 212 losses, and 1 tie, rounding out a 0.612 winning percentage passing the San Francisco 49’ers after the 2015 season. At the time of Bowlen’s death, the New England Patriots had surpassed that figure.</p>
<p style="text-align: center">In August 2022 the Walmart heir Samuel Robson Walton took ownership of the Denver Broncos. He bought the franchise for a whopping $4.65 Billion, the most ever paid for a franchise in the history of all sports.</p>

<h2 style="text-align: center"> Denver Broncos 2022 Sponsors</h2>
<p style="text-align: center">Frequent franchise partners BetMGM and the Broncos agreed to a multi-year sports betting partnership that includes a premium lounge at Empower Field at Mile High. The Lounge will allow fans 21 years and older access to a full-service premium bar, a luxury lounge, and live odds with BetMGM’s mobile app.</p>
<p style="text-align: center">Additionally, the Broncos also have a tie-up with Betfred USA Sports ahead of Betfred’s launching a Colorado presence. Not to mention, the club agreed to a multi-year deal with FanDeul Group for legalized sports betting and daily fantasy partnership. The partnership gives Fan Duel access to official Broncos marks and logos to use across FanDuel’s sports betting offerings in Colorado.</p>

49ers OT Heartbreak: Who Has the Most Super Bowl Losses? Blown Out Broncos and NE Patriots Undesirable Record Explained

A Super Bowl loss hurts

The Niners have an awful track record
