Broncos Hang On To Beat Vikings 23-20

Two NFC North teams up, two down. On a gorgeous fall afteroon in the Rocky Mountains, the Denver Broncos defeated the Minnesota Vikings 23-20. After earning the ignoble designation of becoming the first team in NFL history to start 3-0, while failing to rush for at least 70 yards in a game, the Broncos running game finally came to life.

Sparked by a Ronnie Hillman 72-yard touchdown run, the league's longest rushing score of the young 2015 season, the Broncos finally found their groove on the ground. They would finish the day with 144 yards rushing as a team.
