How many threepeats have there been in Super Bowl history and will the Chiefs do it?

Winning one Super Bowl is hard enough. Winning three straight? Man. That’s unimaginable for most teams.

But the Chiefs have a legitimate shot at doing just that this year. They’ll play the Bills in the AFC Championship Game on Sunday for a shot at going to a third consecutive Super Bowl.

It’s one thing to go to a third Super Bowl. It’s another thing entirely to win it all — again. That’s what’s on the line for the Chiefs here.

And, if they can accomplish it, they’ll have done something no other team in NFL history has been able to do.

How many threepeats have there been Super Bowl history? The answer is none. Teams have gone back-to-back before. There have been some who’ve won three in five years. But no one has ever won three straight.

Technically, the Packers did win three straight NFL championships twice in the team’s history. But that was from 1929 to 1931 and from 1965 to 1967. Both of those stints were before the Super Bowl Era started in 1970.

The Chiefs have their work cut out for them here. The path ahead is tough.
