Chiefs guards Joe Thuney, Trey Smith combine for impressive streak

The Kansas City Chiefs offensive line is a talented bunch of experienced veterans, and with Super Bowl rings to show for their accomplishments, it is no wonder that guards Joe Thuney and Trey Smith have set themselves apart on the stat sheet in 2023.

Here's a list of players in the NFL with at least 270 pass-blocking snaps but zero sacks allowed:

The impenetrable tandem has become the only two players in the NFL with an active streak of 270 pass-blocking snaps without allowing a sack. This is a good indication of the duo’s effectiveness through six games of the season and should be a good omen for Patrick Mahomes’ health moving into the meat of the Chiefs’ 2023 schedule.

Kansas City’s offensive line got off to a shaky start in September, but with the help of Thuney and Smith, seem to have gotten back on track in recent weeks to become a significant asset for Andy Reid’s air attack.

Now, the pair of guards will just need to maintain their level of play to help push the reigning MVP to new heights in Kansas City’s Week 7 matchup against the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday.
