(Helen H. Richardson, The Denver Post)If there were any questions about the depth of Denver's defense, the first half of Thursday night's preseason finale against Arizona should have quashed them.
The Broncos, who entered the game with an NFL-leading 15 sacks in three preseason games, picked up five more against the Cardinals, with their total of 20 sacks spread among 14 defensive players.
