Top 50 Kansas City Chiefs

The story of the Kansas City Chiefs begins in Dallas where they were a charter member of the American Football League as the Dallas Texans and in their third year of existence, they won the title, which coincided as being their final year in Dallas.

Relocating to Kansas City and redubbed the Chiefs they would win the AFL title again in 1966 and that was the year of Super Bowl I, where they would represent the league against the Green Bay Packers.  They didn’t win, but they would win the final AFL Title in 1969 and this time they would beat their NFL counterpart, the Minnesota Vikings to win Super Bowl IV, which to date is the only one they ever one. 

After 1971, it would be 15 years before they would return to the playoffs and by the 1990’s they would do well making the playoffs seven times that decade, although they never went deep into the post season.  The 2000’s would see more of the same with multiple trips to the playoffs but to date they have yet to return to the Super Bowl.

While they are only a one time Super Bowl Champion (and for that matter as of this writing a one time Super Bowl participant) this is a team that has one of the more fervent fans in the NFL and has had many Hall of Famers play on their field.  

This list is up to the end of the 2018 regular season.
