There are games where that OL got dominated, run and pass. The 2 most recent were the Jets game and the 2nd Seattle game (though they did rebound in the wildcard game and gave back what they took in the 2nd Seattle game...Whitworth helped with that).
One good explanation for why the passing game altered so drastically this year to a ball control game was to account for the OL. That had to do with RB pass pro too, except of course for Brown.
Sure, that's a decent explanation but another good one is the explanation it seems you haven't wanted to consider: maybe the passing game was altered so drastically to accommodate the limitations of the QB.
I can't say that I agree that the OL got dominated in the Jets game but it's really not important because I agree that it doesn't seem they should be ranked 3rd. There were some problematic games.
And it either wore down towards the end of the season or that was the effect of missing Whit. Probably both.
I think it was better than 12th though.
