Chiefs will have lots of rest before resuming quest to three-peat as Super Bowl champs

Associated Press  

The biggest question facing the Kansas City Chiefs as they resume their quest to become the first team ever to win three consecutive Super Bowls is whether 3 1/2 weeks’ rest will result in too much rust. Jim Harbaugh led the Los Angeles Chargers into the playoffs in his first season back in the NFL, and Sean Payton’s Broncos are back for the first time since winning Super Bowl 50 following the 2015 season. Six Lombardi trophies in eight Super Bowl appearances: beat Vikings 16-6 in Super Bowl 9, beat Cowboys 21-17 in Super Bowl 10, beat Cowboys 35-31 in Super Bowl 13, beat Rams 31-19 in Super Bowl 14, lost to Cowboys 27-17 in Super Bowl 30, beat Seahawks 21-10 in Super Bowl 40, beat Cardinals 27-23 in Super Bowl 43, lost to Packers 31-25 in Super Bowl 45. And there’s this: the previous time Pittsburgh entered the playoffs as the sixth seed in 2005, they won the fifth of the franchise’s six Super Bowl titles. Three Lombardi trophies in eight Super Bowl appearances: lost to Cowboys 27-10 in Super Bowl 12; lost to Giants 39-20 in Super Bowl 21, lost to Washington 42-10 in Super Bowl 22, lost to 49ers 55-10 in Super Bowl 24, beat Packers 31-24 in Super Bowl 32, beat Falcons 34-19 in Super Bowl 33, lost to Seahawks 43-8 in Super Bowl 48, beat Panthers 24-10 in Super Bowl 50.
