The Chiefs DL is very very talented.

Fisher looks like he is getting it. You hang with Houston all game, you almost assuredly lose a few.
Fish damn near shut him down outside of a rep or two and even then gave enough to prevent a sack.

Boling is still one of the best LG in the NFL. He's steady as a rock in pass pro and one of the better pulling guards at squaring up and sealing off defenders.

Hopkins is showing inexperience but the foundation is still there. His big issues come from lack of experience. If they don't look better week 8, then you panic.

The foundation for a good OL is in place.
Center and Left tackle look to be the biggest concerns and they can be huge.

Realistically, the pass pro wasn't that bad against KC considering the talent they have.  The run blocking was more of a concern to me, but we saw less of Hewitt than against TB.  That could have been a goal for the game to establish the run without Hewitt against a tough front seven.  Since it didn't work too well, we'll have to see if the use him more in game three.
