And neither have stepped up yet, I think they have even been inactive a few games. The offensive line was better at the beginning of the year, than it was two weeks ago when D mac was out, and Terry was lost in space. Attendance is down for several reasons, mostly because people are fed up.
KC fans can handle a rebuild, but it should have started at the beginning of the year and not week 11. And the fact that Herm has thrown every one from the old coaches to the team to the fans under the bus has escalated everything also.

Brodie Croyle wasn't ready to start the season. Plain and simple. And even if he had, he'd most certainly be out for the season by now due to injury. This offensive line is awful. Even if they DID look better at the beginning of the season (and that's debatable), that's due to the age of the lineman. They're old. They're worn out.
Expecting second and third round DT rookies to be ready for the rigors of a 16 game season is ludicrous. And apparently you haven't been watching much because Tank's played in 13 games and Turk has played in 14 games.
