“It always comes down to the wire. Luckily, we were on the winning side this time. But like I said, I’m just excited to go down to New Orleans,” Mahomes said. “Let’s go make history.”
Nantz mentioned on stage with Travis Kelce that the tight end was already thinking about three straight Super Bowl titles before Kansas City pulled off a Super Bowl LVIII victory over the San Francisco 49ers last year.
“Never satisfied, baby! When you play in front of Arrowhead Stadium like that, every AFC championship. Are you kidding?” Said Kelce.

Since the NFL merged with the American Football League and called the Super Bowl title game, there have been eight repeat champions.
The Green Bay Packers (1966-67), Miami Dolphins (1972-73), Pittsburgh Steelers (1974-75 and 1978-79), San Francisco 49ers (1988-89), Dallas Cowboys (1992-93), Denver Broncos ( 1997-98), New England Patriots (2003-04) and the Chiefs (2022-23).
Only the Chiefs had the opportunity to win a third consecutive title. Before the merger, the Packers won three consecutive NFL championships from 1929 to 1931. The Packers won the NFL championship in 1965 and then Super Bowls I and II.
