On the offensive line:

“I think that’s the best we’ve played this year up front. I saw vast improvement with various players. We played a lot of people. [C/G] Max [Garcia] played a lot in the game. I liked what I saw from him. [T Tyler] Polumbus continues to give [T] Ryan [Harris] a break and [T Michael] Schofield continues to grow. I’m encouraged by how we played. That was a big positive coming out of the game. We haven’t arrived by any means, but that was a big step forward. I’m excited about what they can become if they’ll just stay the course and keep going.”

Evan Mathis is on thin ice.

The big-time free agent signing has yet to pan out, and now the man he came in to replace, Max Garcia, is slowly working his way back onto the field. Against the Browns, Garcia came on at left guard for several series (15 total plays) in place of Mathis, and I don’t think it was just because Mathis is dealing with some lingering injuries.

The Broncos like Garcia, and they’re going to find a way to get him onto the field.
