Mason's Mailbag: Wouldn't it be great to see old-school uniforms?

How come Denver hasn't worn the 1977-1996 old traditional uniforms in a throwback situation yet? I've heard that helmet safety is a concern with switching uniforms but Pittsburgh rolls their throwbacks out every year as well as several other teams. I guess I miss the old Big Denver "D." Thank you.

It would be lovely to see those old uniforms, which were worn in various iterations from 1968-96, with variances in sock stripes, face-mask color and other small details.
