Interesting O-Line Stats
A couple of Chief OL are, apparently, playing well in the passing game.

Our run blocking sucks.

The line is doing about as well as can be expected considering the limited resources spent there and the opt-outs, although I haven't been all that impressed with LDT for a while now so I'm not sure his presence helps all that much. There are a number of needs going forward, and we don't need a 2003 Chiefs type OL, but if we can just somehow find the resources to turn the IOL into more of a strength I think it makes the offense that much more unstoppable. I was hopeful that the signing of Osemele earlier in the offseason was a sign that they might be pivoting more towards powerblocking types on the inside, but that may just be wishful thinking. An OL that can blow people off the ball in short yardage makes Mahomes and co. even more lethal. And back to pass blocking, perhaps PFF grades account for this but Mahomes clearly covers for a lot of deficiencies in pass protection with his pocket presence and mobility. Put a less capable QB behind this OL and I think you see their pass protection grades plummet. |

However, I'm not sure why that's relevant. The reality is that we have Mahomes so the line is doing its job more often than not. |

The Chiefs are #1 in 3rd down conversion percentage. Of course, it helps to have Pat. But, we have Pat.

Probably has a lot to do with #15. When he scrambles he gets good chunks of yards and since he is such a threat to beat teams through the air opposing teams rarely stack the box to stop our run. They are more concerned with stopping the passing game.

That doesn't make the line any less effective. Very few teams in the NFL can run effectively against a stacked box.

I thought the offensive line played much better with Kilgore at center. I think we had our best rushing games when Kilgore was playing center. I just want Reiter and Wiley replaced so badly. I get so sick of watching Wiley watch his man sack, hit, or flush Mahomes from the pocket. Sent from my GM1915 using Tapatalk |

Kudos to Veach for plucking Remmers. Everyone thought he would be absolute shit.
Still sad about KO.

Imagine if you will Osemele in and allegretti opposite him.
