Inside the Cockpit: What It’s Like to Fly Over a Denver Broncos Game

The Denver Broncos are heading to the playoffs and we are incredibly excited. This is the first time the Denver Broncos are going to the playoffs since Peyton Manning was our quarterback. Colorado is long overdue for some playoff football.

Our playoff hopes were relying on one game. The odds were stacked against the Broncos. We previously covered that the Broncos either beat the Kansas Chiefs to secure a wildcard spot. If the Denver Broncos did not beat the Chiefs, the Bengals and Dolphins had to lose in order for the Broncos to have a playoff appearance.

The Bengals won the day prior. So, the Denver Broncos had to beat the Super Bowl Champions Kansas City Chiefs.

Before we tell you about the Denver Broncos' first playoff game in a long time, we wanted to share a video that Instagram user @grizz_more shared. The helicopter pilot and Army Major took a video of flying over Empower Field at Mile High and it looks epic.
