their yellow ones look even worse:



nice brown color, dudes.



The apparent reason is that the GM was cheap and bought the jersies 2nd hand!

"The story has it that, for the Broncos’ inaugural season, general manager Dean Griffing purchased what were considered “compromise” uniforms, light colored jerseys and drab brown pants along with socks with vertical stripes that could be worn at both home and away games. Reputed to be extremely frugal (cheap is more like it), Griffing reportedly bought these used uniforms from a defunct organization in Tucson, Arizona. Research indicates differing accounts as to the exact origin of the uniforms. Some sources have indicated that the uniforms were purchased from a defunct college bowl organization (Cooper Bowl College All-Star Game), while coach Jack Faulkner has suggested that the uniforms came from an Arizona semi-pro organization ”the Rattlers” with whom Griffing had been previously employed. With a team that looked like that, it’s a wonder the American Football League lived long enough to merge with the NFL.

hmmmm ..... then it would have been the last sunday or monday night game as the Fins only wear white during day games. Could have been the night Miami had their orange unis on. But who really cares.

Yikes those things are ugly. If I had to wear one of those, I'd consider throwing myself on a bonfire.
