It means the chick may or may not be able to pip into the air sac when it's time to hatch. It doesn't necessarily mean they're bad. Are they upright or on their sides in the incubator?
 
Looks a lot like a saddled sack. If these were shipped, it may cause that to happen. During hatching, you may need to help a bit.
