Pro Grid Forecast Denver Seeks Scoring Punch
Denver coach John Ralston plans a two tight end offense to boost scoring after a low 18 touchdowns in 1971. The defense remains strong led by a front four, cornerbacks Leroy Mitchell and Billy Thompson, and new roles for Duranko and Alzado. The Broncos face questions at linebacker and after trades as they pursue a tougher West Division showing in 1972.
