Deuce carries 20 times for 118 yards, with 106 coming on his first 9 carries. The rest are predictable middle leads on first and10 or 3rd and short.

Brooks throws for 220, 1 TD, fumbles two center exchanges, and is sacked 4 times. Champ makes him pay dearly on a poorly thrown seem route intercepting it and going 47 yards down to the Saints 12 sometime mid third quarter.

Droughns rushes for 105 yards and a TD on 11 carries in the first half, and follows that up with another 83 in the second half, most of it coming on a 52 yard scamper from deep in his own territory late in the game when the Saints need a stop and have the Broncos pinned inside their own 10.

Plummer goes 23 of 31 for 287 and 3 TDs, shredding the Saints secondary. He also scrambles 3 times for 26 yards. Elam hits a 50+ yarder at the end of the first half to put the Broncos up 24-10. They add one more score in the second half, fumbling once in scoring position. Still, the Saints can make it only 31-20.
