The Denver Broncos are back in the Super Bowl with quarterback Peyton Manning. The state of Colorado is understandably excited about the big game, and they’ve had some fun with signs. Most of the signs out of Colorado we’ve seen have taken shots at Seattle Seahawks cornerback Richard Sherman, this is the first I’ve seen that was pro-Broncos as opposed to anti-Seahawks.

The sign is simple and targets Manning’s signature “Omaha” call.

Manning has tried to explain the call without giving too much away.

“I’m not sure I know how to answer that, but I’ve had a lot people ask what ‘Omaha’ means,” Manning told reporters during his media availability, via Pro Football Talk.  “‘Omaha’ is a run play, but it could be a pass play or a play-action pass depending on a couple things – the wind, which way we’re going, the quarter and the jerseys that we’re wearing.  It varies really play to play.  There’s your answer to that one.”
