For comparison, the KC Chiefs offense faced the following defenses with their total sack ranking to the right.
Pittsburgh (T-1st)
Arizona (T-5th)
Denver twice (T-8th)
Seattle (T-11th)
Baltimore (T-11th)
LA Rams (15th)
And of course the Chargers twice who present a darn good rush that got better when Bosa returned.
Basically, the stats tell me that there is a legitimate argument to be made that KCs OL is every bit as good in pass protection as Indianapolis. KC allowed 26 sacks (5th) to Indianapolis’ 18 sacks (1st) with a far more difficult schedule.
