Our OL didnt suck, our QB's and coaching did. Check this link (fromm PFF on secret superstars - basically a player from each team that no one knows about but is good)

When looking purely at statistics, it’s no surprise that the Chiefs finished the season 2-14 in 2012. They were outscored by a league-leading 13.4 points per game, finished second to last in quarterback rating (63.8 ), and last in quarterback rating against (99.9). Those last two are an absolutely deadly combination in the NFL and no matter how well you can run or stop the run you will ultimately be doomed with those numbers.
The problem is that their record doesn’t quite reflect the sum of their parts. Kansas City sent six players to Hawaii and had three players selected to PFF’s AFC Pro Bowl squad. Looking over their roster there is talent almost everywhere, even beyond those Pro Bowlers. Tamba Hali, Eric Berry, Derrick Johnson, Dwayne Bowe, Jamaal Charles, Brandon Flowers, and Branden Albert are all fairly big-name players that have had great seasons in the past. The biggest problem was that the Chiefs were a team built to run the ball, not pass.
One of their strongest positional units is the offensive line, a group that graded 20th in pass blocking and eighth in run blocking in 2012. Over the course of the season, Kansas City had to overcome injuries at left tackle and left guard, but the right side of the Chiefs’ line was steadily one of the best in the league.
That last paragraph especially (2nd paragraph is pretty strong too). (and yes they wrote LG but they are wrong.. it was our center)
People will call them a surprise team this year because of the 2-14 we tossed down last year.. it wont be a surprise if you take a look now though. Loaded.. I'm telling you on paper this team is loaded.
Back to the OL.. out goes Winston (shoddy pass blocker) and in comes #1 overall draft choice Eric Fisher (on paper - an upgrade). Albert returns from injury to man the LT spot (replacing a rookie that was forced into duty last year). Our LG (Allen) has a year of experience after last year being forced to duty cause our center got hurt and the old man (Lilja) was forced to move from LG to C (meaning playing out of position). Well our center is back (Hudson - high draft choice from Florida St 2 years ago!). Now that 2nd year LG (Lilja retired) will have an actual center next to him and a veteran and high quality LT (Albert) outside of him (last year it was another rookie!). Oh and I havent even mentioned the guy the article is focusing on yet (RG Asamoah)!!
You wanna trash a position group on this team as being a question mark.. it's the DL (I'm not worried) or the recievers outside of Bowe and Fasano/Moeaki (TE's) - still that was addressed (Donnie Avery brings speed and had a really good year with Indy in '12) and Baldwin finally has coaching to reach his immense potential.
