The Kansas City Chiefs are bound for the Super Bowl for the fourth time in the last five seasons, sealing their path with a 17-10 victory on the road against the Baltimore Ravens.

The Kansas City Chiefs are heading to the Super Bowl for the fourth time in the last five seasons after a 17-10 win on the road against the Baltimore Ravens. No team in the NFL has won back-to-back Super Bowl championships since the New England Patriots. The Chiefs came out of the gate to score a touchdown on their opening drive and never trailed in the game.

On the defensive side, the Chiefs forced three turnovers by the Ravens. Two of them were in the end zone area with the Ravens on the verge of scoring. Accepting the Lamar Hunt trophy in a formal presentation on the field after the game, Chiefs chairman Clark Hunt told Jim Nantz he was thinking of his mother, Norma Hunt, who died last year.

“Four years ago, when you handed us our first Lamar Hunt trophy, I gave it to Mom and the first thing she did was kiss it,” he said. Landon Nichols is a lifelong Chiefs fan who watched Sunday’s game at Jim’s Alley Bar in Kansas City’s Crossroads neighborhood. At the end of the game, knowing the Chiefs are headed to another Super Bowl, he said it was a great day to be a Kansas Citian

“I don’t know how we pulled this off, but it’s great,” Nichols said. “It feels good. Another Super Bowl. We are in the best era of football right now for Kansas City and it’s unbelievable.” Zach Shore also caught the game at Jim’s Alley Bar. At halftime, with the Chiefs in the lead, he said Mahomes was playing strong while the Ravens quarterback appeared to be losing steam. At the finish of the game, Shore said Kelce played his best game of the season.

“Lamar Jackson looked tired from quarter one to quarter four,” Shore said. “He looked tired. Patrick Mahomes looked thirsty, hungry. He was ready to fight and they fought from minute one.” Chiefs fan Joey Beim thought the team had a strong first half but played sloppier in the second half. Still, the team came away with the win, and that’s all that mattered, he said. “Growing up, being a Chiefs fan was very hard ’cause we were so bad for so long,” Beim said. “And then now within the past, you know, five years, we’ve now won two Super Bowls, gone to three and now we’re going to another one. So let’s win another one.”
