When were you “sold” that this team could make it back to the Super Bowl?
I always wondered what the Super Bowl bye week might feel like growing up. Now we all have had 3 over the last 4 years. In the 2019 season I was such a mess of nerves and was going crazy with the wait. The next year, I was having health problems and was a new Dad, which made that whole playoff run and COVID year a blur.

This year, I’m just trying to bask in the glow - and that’s exactly what this thread is. When was the moment you were sold that this team could go all the way? Check my spoiler’d answer below.

Spoiler!


NOTE: I totally accept the always correct answer that’s “we have Andy Reid and Patrick Mahomes, we ALWAYS can go all the way.”

i wasn't truly, truly convinced we'd go back until chris jones sacked joe burrow

The draft sold me in a big way. It just felt like Veach took all the draft capital pulled another coup to immediately address our biggest concerns after dropping the game to the Bengals last year. It made me think we were actually going to be a much deeper - and much more financially comfortable team after trading Tyreek.

It's fun to think of the rookies who were on the field thanks to the Tyreek trade last year and how they all did their part to get us the win we couldn't last year.

Sure, you hope the team can get there every year and of course, Patrick makes that chance exponentially higher but there were some pretty serious question marks about KC's pass rush and especially the secondary going into this year. To say "I knew it all along" is absolutely silly.

Playing Buffalo close in Week 6 put the seed in my head that maybe this team was better than I thought it would be.

Playing Cincinnati close, and really the Chiefs should have won it, in Week 13
sold me that this team at least had the potential to get to the Super Bowl.

Whenever I saw Toney on the field the first time.

Before that game, it was becoming obvious that teams were playing a lot more man against us and that Kelce was really our only consistent man-beater receiver. And the offense was stalling with more frequency as more teams were just manning up our WRs.

Then Toney showed up and I knew that, barring injury, the Chiefs finally had assembled enough pieces offensively to beat BUF or CIN, or any NFC contender. That was assuming that the OL/defense would sort itself out as I predicted before the season started, which has largely come to fruition now.

The 49er game, they were supposed to be one of the best teams in the league and we just destroyed them. Nick Bosa got embarrassed on those Hardman sweeps again and again.

When Mahomes hit MVS for the TD to put the Jaguars away in the Divisional

That was a bigtime drive

Pat was hurt, but I knew the team was going to bring it in the AFCCG.

Let’s be real, we all had our doubts based on how the defense and special teams were playing. We saw our defense pick up very very late in the season but it wasn’t until Jacksonville that we saw what our Defense was capable of. And once we figured that out there were doubts about mahomes’ health.

We needed team wins more than ever this postseason. And half of our team showed up very unexpectedly. Spags and butker have been a complete surprise although we should stop being surprised at how good these 2 are

Not really, the 2018 defense was an offsides or a coin flip from going to the Super Bowl.

Yeah, they're probably not back in the SB if the defense is that bad, but it's not like they were giving up 40+ every game either... and I personally put very little thought into the efforts of playing dumpster fire teams.
