And now we have Fox Sports’ Jason McIntyre, who went listing teams who can win the Super Bowl on The Herd.

He only came up with six, two from the AFC in the Buffalo Bills and Baltimore Ravens.

But the Chiefs weren’t mentioned.

It is easy to forget that Mahomes has beaten both the Bills and Ravens in the playoffs in the last two seasons, so there’s that.

However, it appears that the Chiefs’ dominant aura has been tarnished by the Super Bowl loss, coupled with the roster weaknesses that many believe will be the catalyst for a poor 2025 season.

However, surely the Chiefs are at least in the conversation to be Super Bowl winners, right?

Having won the AFC for three straight seasons, won two Super Bowls and been to a third in that time frame, we think the defending conference champs deserve at the very least to be mentioned.

The Chiefs didn’t need more motivation ahead of the new year, but they just got more.
