"Once in our lifetime, the greatest sporting event in America needs to be played in the best sports city in the country.

"We are a city worthy of hosting the Super Bowl," Broncos president Joe Ellis said Wednesday. "It's definitely something we're looking at."

While it should be noted that the No. 1 priority of the Broncos is getting back to the NFL championship game, regardless of where it's played, having the world's biggest football party in the backyard of franchise owner Pat Bowlen would be a fitting tribute to this sports-crazy town and his decades of commitment to the league."
