Protecting Patrick Mahomes against Rams may be offensive line’s biggest challenge yet

Sometime in the last few days — I’m sorry I can’t remember who said it, or in which comment thread it was — an Arrowhead Pride user said that after the Kansas City Chiefs had spent so many years under head coach Andy Reid trying to build a solid offensive line, it was ironic that so many of them would be injured during Patrick Mahomes’ first season as a starter.

That’s certainly true. Going into the 2018 season, the Chiefs offensive line was more stable than it has been during almost time during Reid’s tenure — and with Mahomes taking over the reins, it seemed that it couldn’t have happened at a better time.
