Offensive line making life easier for Broncos’ Orton
Posted by GameSetMatch on October 1st, 2009
Life is easier for Kyle Orton behind one of the better offensive lines in the NFL.
The Denver Broncos quarterback doesn’t have as many worries when he drops back to pass. Ryan Clady hasn’t given up a full sack in any of his 19 games. The rest of the line is solid, too. Denver allowed 12 sacks last year, tied for the fewest in the league.
Orton hasn’t been sacked the past two games and barely has been touched. Cleveland registered only three hits in Week 2, and Oakland had none Sunday.
“You don’t have to get the ball out so quick, and when the run game gets going that’s the quarterback’s best friend,” Orton said. “It’s kind of twofold: When they can get the run game going and protect so well, it makes it easy on myself.”

Thats good for the broncos. When was the last time you heard about there line doing good. Probably in the times of Terrell Davis and John Elway.
