Offensive line pitches a shutout

The Broncos’ offensive line has been playing better in the second half of the season, specifically when it comes to pass protection.

Has it been perfect?

No, definitely not.

But, the team is doing a much better job of keeping the quarterback clean when he doesn’t hold the football too long, and this game against the Colts will be an opportunity for them to build even more confidence.

The Colts have been one of the worst teams in the league when it comes to sacking the quarterback, but Jabaal Sheard is a player to watch out for in this game.

Sheard has 42 hurries this season, and leads the Colts with four sacks.

I think the Broncos’ offensive line is going to pitch a shutout in pass protection, keeping Trevor Siemian clean as long as he doesn’t force himself into traffic.
