The Kansas City Chiefs are set to play in their third Super Bowl in four years on Sunday against the San Francisco 49ers in Las Vegas, Nevada.
While the defending champions are certainly no strangers to the big game, their path to the Super Bowl was exceedingly difficult in 2023. Kansas City struggled throughout the regular seasons, looking like a shell of their former selves against opponents like the Denver Broncos and Las Vegas Raiders in Week 8 and Week 16 respectively.
Despite the adversity, the Chiefs tightened up when it mattered most in the playoffs. Victories over the Buffalo Bills and Baltimore Ravens on the road dispelled any doubt that Kansas City could hack it in the Super Bowl and earned the Chiefs a chance to defend their Super Bowl LVII title.
