The old-timers in Broncos Country remember Red Miller vividly for the energy, passion and winning spirit he brought to the sideline - not to mention the actual winning too.
He led the team to a 12-2 record and its first division title plus first trip to the Super Bowl his first year in Denver.
I remember him for his autograph that he signed in red felt-tip pen when I was 7 and went to training camp.
But the franchise will always remember him for ushering in a championship mentality in Denver.
Though he was not the architect of the Orange Crush defense, Miller created the space for Joe Collier to invent a new 3-4 scheme that drove the team to prominence in the NFL for the first time.
