Some organizations have zero in their entire history. He's been to 3, won 1 and he's not done yet. If he comes back next year the Broncos will definitely be a contender to win it all.

February 6, 201412 yr The Super Bowl is very very difficult to win. Some organizations have zero in their entire history. I believe the number I heard the other day is that Seattle is the 19th franchise to win a Super Bowl. That leaves 13 franchises without a Super Bowl win.
