So....
In the case of the Chiefs yes their OL was an issue in the Super Bowl but let's be honest - Tampa devised an exceptional defensive gameplan with deep safeties and doubling Tyreek Hill plus they had the speed on defense to bottle up Kelce and prevent the Chiefs from having anyone wide open. This let them cash in on the Chiefs line issues.
As to injury issues in general, my big wonder is not so much that we get them (all teams do) but the weird tendency of the Bengals to have entire position groups wiped out by injuries. Last year DL was annihilated and OL hurt - we've also had seasons recently where WR was wiped out, the secondary was wiped out, LB was wiped out and so on.
