Fantastic Finishes Three Weeks with the 1960 New York Titans
THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 21, No. 1 (1999) Fantastic Finishes Three Weeks with the 1960 New York Titans By William J. Ryczek When the AFL commenced operations in 1960, it was difficult to predict the performance of each team. The clubs had no track record, they ran hundreds of prospects through their training camps, and many players they were depending on had little or no professional experience. Prior to the start of the season, Sports Illustrated ranked the Chargers, Oilers and Patriots as the three best teams in the league, based upon their performances during the exhibition season. The Broncos and Titans were judged the weakest. Denver not only played bad, they looked bad, sporting hideous socks with broad vertical stripes. The stockings were so unattractive that Joe Pagliei, a fullback who wound up with the Titans, refused to negotiate with Denver after he saw their uniforms. “I didn’t like the way Denver’s socks looked,” he recalled. “They looked like hell. I said, ‘I’ve got big legs, they won’t look good on me.’” The Broncos lost all of their exhibition games, one to the Patriots by a 43-6 margin, and were outscored 200-53 overall. Boston was therefore established as a 16 point favorite when they played Denver in the new league’s first game on September 9. The underdog Broncos surprised everyone by taking the lead on a 76 yard punt return by Gene Mingo and a 59 yard screen pass and run from quarterback Frank Tripucka to Al Carmichael. The defense thwarted a late Patriot rally and Denver held on for a 13-10 upset win.

Why Brittany Bowlen Is the Heir Apparent to Fill Void at Broncos Headquarters Left by the Late, Great Mr
Kiszla: Why Brittany Bowlen is the heir apparent to fill void at Broncos headquarters left by the late, great Mr. B By Mark Kiszla The Denver Post August 4, 2019 Why is Brittany Bowlen the heir apparent to fill the void at Broncos headquarters left by the late, great Mr. B? The subtle signs have been apparent for decades to anyone now searching for the answer to the most important football question in Denver: Who will be entrusted in the future with the team’s championship dreams? Well, perhaps the first clue could be found way back in 1998, during the celebration of the team’s first Super Bowl victory. Brittany Bowlen was a child born into Broncomania. It’s in her blood. But as the throng in Civic Center Park cheered quarterback John Elway’s successful quest for the Lombardi Trophy on that winter afternoon back in ’98, and a triumphant Pat Bowlen raised his hands in salute to the raucous crowd, a little blonde girl, no more than 8 years old at the time, stood stoically alongside the team’s owner, her arms snugly folded across her tiny chest, in a serious pose almost identical to one often struck by her father during pensive moods. Like father, like daughter. More than two decades after that open-air party in downtown Denver to toast victory in Super Bowl XXXII, during a break Friday in the celebration for the long-overdue induction of Mr. B to the Pro Football Hall of Fame, Brittany Bowlen, now 29 years old, stood alongside the lockers in the hallways of a Canton school and confessed: “I do find myself, once in a while, being with my friends and saying: ‘Is anybody having any fun around here?’” Before her next breath, she rushed to cover her mouth with a hand.
