Replacing timing chain, can't get TDC to line up
I'm replacing the timing chain and can't get TDC on the crank pulley lined up the same time I have piston 1 TDC lined up on the cams. This seems bad to me and I'm afraid to continue...is something wrong? Thanks!

Do you have an OEM manual for guidance. You can get a download manual for $22 from automanualsource. This should provide detailed guidance you need to resolve your alignment.

Yes, both camshafts and crankshaft should align simultaneously. If not, something was done wrong; perhaps one of the camshaft marks is on the crankshaft, or wrong timing chain.
