NY Post
When the Kansas City Chiefs take the field against the Philadelphia Eagles in Super Bowl LIX on Sunday, they won’t just be playing for another championship. They’ll be chasing history.
With a victory, Kansas City would become the first team in NFL history to win three consecutive Super Bowls — a feat that even Tom Brady’s Patriots, the ’90s Cowboys, or the ’70s Steelers never accomplished.
For Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes, the significance isn’t lost.
“It [would be] legendary,” Mahomes said last February, just hours after the Chiefs defeated the 49ers in the 2024 Super Bowl. “No one’s ever done it.”

It’s kind of funny if you think about it. For years, for decades — hell, for damn near half a century — it was the Yankees who would cause others in major league baseball to shake their heads, raise a fist, and make angry, bitter exclamations.
