While the Cardinals solid offensive line kept Lyle Alzado and Company off Jim Hart and opened up some solid holes for Terry Metcalf and Jim Otis, it couldn't keep Hart from throwing three interceptions and coughing up a fumble.
Denver's multi-back running attack cranked out 177 yards on the ground and it was the less-than-nimble veteran quarterback, Craig Morton, who got the Broncos on the board with a 4 yard TD Run.
Morton tossed a 4th quarter TD pass to Haven Moses for insurance.
