The NFL is a quarterback driven league, there's no doubt about it. But do the Eagles win the Super Bowl last year without their offensive line? Do the Chiefs establish a dynasty without Andy Reid?

Robert Mays and Derrik Klassen rank the supporting casts in the AFC on this episode of The Athletic Football Show.
