Heck did a good job with OBJ and Wylie in the playoffs. And I think OBJ's grades went up this season over last.
And let's not forget, Wylie was a back-up G. He was never supposed to be a T. So the fact that Heck got him to be good enough to basically stonewall Reddick is pretty good in my book.
i mean, I don't think Heck is probably the best OL coach in the league, but he's done a pretty good job since 2019. Think about it; in 2019 after Week1, the starting OL didn't take a snap together until Week 10. And somehow not only were they okay, but they actually improved over that two months. And it's not like the Chiefs OL is an easy job. There's a ton of movement, non-standard blocking schemes in both the passing game and the run . . . and they have to keep blocking for a lot longer than most OLs do with Pat running around back there.
