You need to get in touch with Mike Beal. He has all the NFL paints.

Will just sent you a PM as I was writing this: I used ATSF BLUE from POLLY scale model railroad paints (acrylic paint). I got it at a train hobby store by me. so I'm not sure about its availability. This is one of the best paints that I've used- far superior to the craft paints in my opinion. I just happened to stumble on it as the guy at the hobby store told me it was great stuff so I tried it. Its thin and goes on super smooth, yet the color covers very well. In addition to the quality of this paint, I am so happy with color match of this blue to the Cowboys blue. I believe this could be great for the Patriots and Broncos as well. I give it with my highest recommendation.

Apple Barrel (English Navy) would be the cheapest way to go.

I second that!

I just wish there were more colors available at my local Hobbytown USA.

It's essentially a single coat coverage paint (although I almost always do 2 coats) and it's so thin and smooth that it leaves very little trace that the figure had been brush painted.

These paints cost more than the $.99 or $1.99 craft paints (about $4 per 1/2 ounce bottle) but from what I have seen so far, the results are worth it.
