Doess TC and preseason give us enough time to find a serviceable replacement?

We'll be fine. If there's one thing the Chiefs have always been good at, it's finding o-line talent. That doesn't mean we'll necessarily find another Roaf (or that we won't), but odds are we'll be fielding a quality starter at LT. I'm expecting Sampson to end up starting at RT, so it could be Black, Turley or someone else. Dropoff? Yes. End of the world? Probably not.

Without Roaf, the offense may not be in the top-5, but it should still be in the top-10. Combine that with a defense that improves to the middle of the pack (or better) across the board and we'll be playing in January.
