    Default Denver Broncos offensive line is NFL's most penalized unit

    http://www.milehighreport.com/2014/1...penalized-unit


    This is a coaching problem. Mental errors and execution issues are not excuses, John Fox, they are coaching failures. It seems, from the outside looking in, that you have lost the trust in some of your players, but your players are losing their trust in you. It's time to go get it back.

    That really says it all. Maybe Franklin WAS a top rated lineman his rookie year, but he's had more penalties EVERY season since, and is on pace to do so for the third straight time. No, he's not the only problem, but in terms of correlating penalties with underperformance and increasing penalties with poor coaching, he makes a fine posterchild, because his penalty frequency has steadily and unceasingly risen since we drafted him, and that shouldn't happen to ANY starting NFL lineman. But who's been his coach since we drafted him...?
    Oh, valid point. I thought you meant all starters, you should take the time to be more descriptive, don't be shy. Jaded

    Wow, in this one thread this team went from being a record setting offense with issues on the OL to being a One-Man-Waste-Of-Money. The Broncos literally did everything those idiots were saying they couldn't do when they signed Manning to his contract, can't sign All-Pro FA's, can't build the defense, can't do this, can't do that.

    Bitch please! No team has done more to win a SB than the Denver Broncos since signing Manning. Tuck in your skirts, ladies, a little adversity and you wanna give up, this is the exact same "Punched in the mouth and quit" mentality we've been blasting the Broncos for.

    We've seen this team get punched in the mouth and lay down a few times. It was nice to see them respond the way they did today. This was a great win. Had they just blown Miami out, I don't think it would have been as impressive.

    It was really nice to see the team step up and take some of the pressure off of Manning.

    Put Manning under center, play 2 TE's on a number of occasions, add C.J. Anderson, allow the OL to do some sound aggressive drive blocking, and good things happened. Play action worked great, and the offense racked up production even with PMFM being a bit off with his deep ball.

    One of Manning's last TD throws was a rocket. Im not sure he showed similar arm strength all season long. I am also not sure it wasnt a result of his arm being fresh thanks to some healthy runs!

    C.J. Anderson's success was out of the shotgun.

    I agree. But I don't want to hear about how you can't run out of the shotgun when Anderson had 16 carries for 103 yards and a touchdown in the gun and 11 for 64 from under center.

    Without the garbage time 26 yard run, Anderson was only 10 for 39 from under center.

    Fwiw, Chad Brown bashed running out of shotgun and pistol this week on Dmac/Big Al, I don't have as much of a problem with it as long as it's not a staple like it was tonight.

    Really?

    Even when it's more effective?

    Amazing.

    Perhaps the shotgun/pistol running was more effective because the Broncos established some run from C looks.
