Balancing act continues in AFC West in 1979 outlook
AP writer John Mossman notes the 1978 AFC West finished with Denver atop at 10-6, followed by San Diego, Seattle, and Oakland at 9-7, while Kansas City lagged. Denver and San Diego look strongest for 1979, Oakland faces questions, Seattle aims to improve, and the division remains highly competitive.
AFC West Teams Eye Top Form After Rebuilding
In 1978 Kansas City aims to stay atop after rebuilding with new faces like free-agent tackle Dave Studdard and No.1 pick Kelvin E. Denver improved offensive line depth and injury protection. San Diego under Don Coryell pursues balanced offense, while Oakland’s Ken Stabler returns from a 30-interception season and Seattle relies on Jim Zorn’s passing and Steve Large’s receiving. Kansas City, coached by Marv Levy, plans to maintain a run-focused wing-T while expanding the passing game.
