It's been a tough year for Denver Broncos left tackle Garett Bolles.
The third-year player out of Utah has had 15 penalties this season, seven declined or offsetting, and has frustrated many in Broncos Country to the point that he was visibly covering his ears this past weekend after being booed by the fans for getting called for a holding penalty early against the Detroit Lions.
Bolles' 15 penalties are unquestionably excessive, and his borderline weekly penalty since he came into the NFL is something that has been extremely frustrating for all parties involved, but Bolles' recent stretch of play seems to indicate that the coaching he's receiving from Mike Munchak is starting to take.
