The Chiefs had a way tougher schedule than the Eagles.

One thing the Chiefs don't get a lot of credit for, and it's not the coach, not Mahomes, not the refs, but their O line.

I am a 100% O-line guy. I remember the Chiefs line that had Roaf and Sheilds (used to work out at his gym, guy is a freak to see in person, he moves like a man half his size.) and then the Chiefs would stupidly pay huge money to average QB's and RB's because the line made them look elite...no money left for defense.

The Chiefs got mauled the last Super Bowl due to a gutted O-line, they rebuilt it and are now back in business.

Not to mention they have an extremely balanced offense, no need for long ball unless you give it to them.

In fact, the Chiefs ended up with the toughest schedule in the NFL.

Absolutely. They had to play the Broncos twice.

I wish Fox would get rid of Terry Bradshaw. He is kind of odd in general - I often feel like I am listening to someone with mental health problems, and the way he greeted Andy Reid with "Waddle on over here" and said goodbye with "Have a cheeseburger on us" - I mean, can't you think of anything positive to say on national TV to a man who just won his second Super Bowl? How hard can it be?

When I googled Bradshaw's Fox contract, estimates were $2 million/year. Really? You can't find anyone better than that for $2 million/year?

Lol, good one.

I assumed they were talking about the playoffs but thanks for that.

Through no fault of their own, I think Phillies cream-puff playoff stretch actually hurt them.

A week off
Giants
49ers gutted QB corps. (or corpse more specifically)
A week off
Chiefs in the SB

Tacky to say the least, normally Terry is just quirky...Reid should have just walked past him and ignored him.

Default If you want a Super Bowl ring, come play for the Kansas City Chiefs

24 of the 53 players suited up for the Chiefs on Sunday were new to the team this year. If you're a talented player on a crappy team looking to make a change, is there any higher percentage bet than trying to join the Chiefs?


I've watched a lot of post-Super Bowl analysis on Youtube and the common thread is that the pro football pundits simply don't like the way the Chiefs win. All the close games, all the tricky plays. In their minds the Chiefs are not doing it "the right way" (the right way being domination and winning every game by 2 TDs or more) and that cognitive dissonance is giving them fits.


I find this all highly amusing, as a long suffering Chiefs fan who grew up watching them with my dad, and all the bridesmaid never a bride years where they were good, but not good enough. I just wanted to watch them win a Super Bowl with my old man and now I've done that twice. So, I am biased of course, but loving every minute of this run. Dynasty? Maybe.
