12. Bad offensive line makes for bad QB play

The chiefs and Bengals both have bad offensive lines.

The chiefs at least had 5 guys capable of starting in the NFL but any injuries and they were done (look at pressure rate the two super bowl losses...in which the real MVP of each was the opposition team's defensive line, regardless of what idiot writers voted for).

For the third time in six years Joey B is a casualty of bad GM not getting offensive line help. I would be surprised if Maholmes doesn't also get a season ending (or at least significant) injury because of having to dodge defenders on more than one third of drop backs.

Rarely does a guy go noodle arm without significant injuries first.

Maholmes is a victim of no one capable of blocking coupled with no one who can get open quickly.
