If the OL gets beat, well the QB should have seen his OL struggling and got rid of the ball quicker or avoided the free runner.
If the WRs can't get open and can't catch, it's because the QB isn't throwing them open and isn't putting the ball into good spots for them to catch it.
If the plays are predictable and getting easily snuffed out by the defense, it's because the QB is pathetic and can't diagnose a defense and change the play to save his life.
If the team sucks, everything is the QB's fault. Blaming anyone else is just making excuses for the QB. Get with the program, lol.

The 2013 Chiefs offensive line wasn't good, but it wasn't bad enough to get QBs killed. It was in the top 20 throughout the entire year, and eventually it found its stride.
Guess what Alex's #1 excuse was last year?
I have a feeling this season will only be more of the same. The offensive line will be average/below average, but it will be far from the dumpster fire that people claim it to be. They'll allow the occasional jailbreak sack on Alex Smith, and people like you will get up in arms about how they play like that every down, when in reality they're usually adequate.
In any case, it's rare that I find people who believe this offensive line will bring Ebola to the United States and who also are willing to be objective about Alex Smith when they need to. Rausch is one name that comes to mind, but that's about it.
