1973 Denver Broncos season

Led by second-year head coach and general manager John Ralston, the Broncos posted a winning record for the first time in franchise history, with seven wins, five losses, and two ties, which tied for sixth-best in the conference.

It was the first time in franchise history that they won more than five games.

Denver tied for second in the AFC West (third with tiebreaker), 1½ games behind the Oakland Raiders.

One of the ties, in their first-ever game with the Cardinals,[1] was the nearest they came to losing to that franchise until 2010,[1] and also their only NFL appearance in St. Louis until 2000 against the relocated Rams at Edward Jones Dome.
