I think what this offensive line needs is time.
The Chiefs of 2013 are completely starting over in nearly every facet, to training to scheme to coaching and personnel. Unlike the days before the current CBA when coaches were allowed two-a-days, multiple OTA's and other time in the building, these guys just haven't had time to become a cohesive unit.
If by the sixth game, the offensive line is still struggling, it would be time to make some moves: Hudson to left guard and Kush to center would be my early recommendation. Asamoah and Schwartz will likely battle for the right guard spot all (which will likely need an upgrade or change after the season).
If they continue struggle, there's probably not much that can be done until the 2014 offseason. I don't think Stephenson is a guard and the Chiefs are stuck with Fisher. There's no doubt that he'll need to improve throughout the season but I highly doubt they bench him.
