Kamara/Murray would get the edge on Damien Williams, but He’s pretty even with Freeman at this point.
The Chiefs OL may not be better than the Saints, but it is just as good in pass protection.
The Saints have really good weapons, but the Chiefs TE and WR2-3 are clearly better.
You’re straying far from your “I want to have a good conversation and learn” intent and into troll territory, by the way.

The Chiefs OL is almost identical to the Saints in pass protection, even though the Chiefs had several injuries throughout the year. The adjusted sack rates were only different by .2%, which might as well be equal.
Also, Matt Moore was sacked 7 total times against the Packers and Vikings. The Chiefs only averaged slightly over a sack per game on the year (25 total), so those games skewed it a bit. Moore took longer to make decisions and doesn’t have as quick of a release as Mahomes. Moore also isn’t as comfortable with the offense, which probably led to at least a couple sacks.
