KC's hope should be that the defense will play more similarly to the 0-9 start of last season.. so that the KC offensive line can get their shit straight for a while.
There are lots of game-planning and plays that get put on the side in PS games... but when it comes to OL blocks... they can either block worth a shit or they can't. I don't know... the season could net them 9 or 10 wins... or 9 or 10 losses.

I admit that I'm not sure they were purposely putting them in rough situations on offense but I am positive they were doing it on defense. You can see it when you watch the games and Sutton specifically talked about it.
I am sure the o-line will play together as much as possible. They haven't had much practice together. People have come in and out of that line like crazy. However, it went like that last season too. Albert, Fisher, and Asamoah all missed time. We have a QB who can run and a RB who can catch. With the way our offense is designed, we don't need an A+ o-line. We will throw short passes and screens with the occasional play action down field pass.
I am optimistic. Our HC knows what he's doing.
