Kansas City Chiefs: Post Super Bowl thoughts

Whew!!! This may be a blog for Kansas City Chiefs fans, but how can you start a post on the Monday after the Super Bowl with anything other than a few words on what an amazing game the Super Bowl turned out to be. Through three quarters it was an absolute snooze fest as the Atlanta Falcons jumped out to a 28-3 lead.

Then it was the New England Patriots that came storming back in record fashion and cementing their status as one of the greatest dynasties, quarterbacks, head coaches, etc. in the history of the NFL. It was a game for the ages. There are a million outlets where you can discuss and debate that game today. I thought I would give you a few Chiefs related thoughts that I had while watching this final game of the NFL season.

First, I’ve always thought I would rather have the Chiefs make and lose a Super Bowl than not make it all together. I may have to rethink that after seeing what happened to the Atlanta Falcons. I tweeted out after the game that I seriously didn’t know how I would handle it if the Chiefs lost a Super Bowl in the same fashion that the Falcons did. That wasn’t just hyperbole, I really don’t know what I would do.

I was sick to my stomach and noticeably shaken for days after KC’s collapse to Indianapolis in the playoffs a few years back. I couldn’t sleep after their recent loss to the Steelers in the divisional round. If they lost a Super Bowl in even more heart breaking fashion…. I just can’t even imagine. All I can say is my heart goes out to anyone who loves the Atlanta Falcons as much as I love the Kansas City Chiefs.

Enough about my mental instability in the face of post season Chiefs losses though, let’s actually talk about some take always for the Chiefs going forward after watching this game.
