How does the KC Chiefs run of success compare to others in the SB era? To the '90s Cowboys?

Where do the Kansas City Chiefs rate in the greatest runs of success by NFL teams in the Super Bowl era? How's it compare to others? The Cowboys of the '90s? Do you think the Chiefs are done adding to their legacy? How much longer before Coach Reid retires?

Only the KC haters thinks its dynasty is over
no one with common sense thinks so

Been to FIVE SBs in SIX years with two losses and three wins

NO one has been to that many SBs in such a period in NFL history.

Now they need to win at least another one to step up CLEARLY past the Cowboys who went to three in four years and won all of them.

Now if you are arguing the Top NFL dynasty of all time, its a lot more convoluted. No argument that the Patriot one lasted longer than any other.
after that, you can talk about the Bears from the early thirties to the mid forties; the Browns in the Fifties; the Packers in the Sixties.

Sad to say the Cowboys Dynasty only lasted four years. Really too short to think its anywhere near the top

Living in Kansas, it's a big challenge dealing with Chief fans. They think the Chiefs will be SB contenders forever. And they probably will be until Reid or Mahomes leaves.

I see the Patriots as having two separate dynasties. How can a dynasty go NINE years without a title?

I agree. Dynasties don't have 9 years separating championships. However, it's easy to connect the two due to same QB/coach, the team never fell off, and went to two SBs in those 9 years.

because they were in it and one game or so away most of those years. So no its not two separate dynasties. Same Coach and QB and owner and so on. Nit pick all you want.

I agree. Dallas made the NFCCG in 1994 and endcapped the SBs with a playoff win in 1991 and 1996; that’s all part of the story of Dallas’s 90’s dynasty.

New England Won in 2001, 2003, 2004… then they made the 2006 AFCCG, 2007 SB, 2011 SB, 2012 AFCCG, 2013 AFCCG, won the 2014 SB, then made the 2015 AFCCG, won the 2016 SB, made the 2017 SB, won the 2018 SB

That is freaking nuts

IT WAS the greatest dynasty in NFL history; there really is no debate about it.
I think they missed the playoffs twice between their first SB and the last one. one was when Brady got hurt. The other was the year after they won their first sb.
And they still won 11 games with Matt Cassel. The only 11 game winner to ever miss the playoffs. Winning 11 games with him was undoubtedly BB's best coaching job. IT was a machine.

That's almost a 20 year run.

Good defensive coach as the HC, a QB with his head in the game...and a front office that was reluctant to give out 2nd contracts to rookies they deemed replaceable.

If memory serves me, I mostly remember the Patriots letting defensive players go instead of paying their second contracts.


If you have a wizard defensive mind as HC/DC and GM that knew he could let guys walk and fill holes through draft....all New England had to do was keep certain talent and Bill and Brady could do the rest.

Just seems like it was perfect ingredients for the era.


Yes, I'm sure New England let some good offensive players go before second contract too.

I remember during their height...late 2000's...new England was known dor having an absolute mastermind as an offensive line coach. Don't know his name, he retired a while ago I believe, but he was touted as keeping guys fresh by rotating a lot. If my memory is right, his thing was hybrid players that could play anywhere on the line....so their depth was always solid against inury and rotating to keep from guys getting fatigue

If all that is true, just hard to compete against
