I think dynasties are defined by decades.
And every decade has one.
60s: Packers
70s: Steelers
80s: 49ers
90s: Cowboys
2010s: Patriots
20teens: {sigh} the ****ing Patriots
The 2020s are there for the taking for the Chiefs. But I think you need 3 SBs in a 10 year(ish) span to be a dynasty.
Bottom line is you just can't hold anyone to the Patriots standard. That team blew the curve something awful. By any other reasonable standard, the Chiefs can absolutely set themselves up as the next NFL dynasty.
But they gotta win a couple more rings to get there. If they don't, someone will. We'll be sitting there in 2031 with Mahomes in his mid 30s wondering how the hell the Bengals won 3 of the last 5 or something equally shitty.
The Chiefs have the ability to control their own narrative here. They just have to go do it.
