I find it interesting we're only talking OL and not the fact that we proudly (and rightfully) that we have the best WR trio in the NFL meanwhile Mahomes' best WR last year would be our 4th best WR. Juju, Valdes-Scantling, and Justin Watson aren't exactly an unstoppable force. He does have Kelce who is basically a WR, but still, we have Chase, Higgins, and Boyd who are a WHOLE lot better collectively and people on here are worried that not paying Higgins would derail the offense.

IDK if I'd say the KC OL was not good. PFF had them ranked #11 in the NFL. Now it was the last good year for players such as Reiter, Fisher, and Schwartz/Remmers, but it was easily a top half of the league oline.

I think the KC oline was revamped more due to age and injury than it was due to poor performance in 2020.
