The Denver Broncos will face quarterback Kurt Warner when they play the Arizona Cardinals Friday night in Arizona.

Warner is battling Matt Leinart for the starting job. Cardinals coach Ken Whisenhunt says Warner is getting the start against the Broncos because he's had fewer snaps.

Leinart has taken 57 with starts against New Orleans and Oakland.

Warner has 30 snaps. He sat out the New Orleans game but started against Kansas City.

Arizona is 2-and-1 and beat the Raiders 24-0 at Oakland last Saturday.

Denver is 1-and-2 after losing last weekend to the Packers, 27-24.
