The Kansas City Chiefs are riding high ahead of their Week 2 matchup against the Cincinnati Bengals after a thrilling 27-20 win over the Baltimore Ravens last week.
Coming off back-to-back Super Bowl wins, expectations are high for the Chiefs, and so far, they have lived up to them. As Kansas City chases its third-straight Super Bowl victory, they will be the team to beat all season.
On Thursday, former New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady listed his top teams heading into Week 2, with the Chiefs leading the pack, ahead of the San Francisco 49ers, Detroit Lions, Dallas Cowboys, and Houston Texans.
🚨POWER RANKINGS🚨 @TomBrady's Top 5 Teams going into Week 2!

Such high praise from a player who many consider the greatest of all time is sure to fire up Chiefs Kingdom, but don’t expect it to affect the team.
Head coach Andy Reid is known for keeping his players humble, and though most of them will inevitably see this clip before Sunday’s game against the Cincinnati Bengals, it isn’t likely to go to their heads.
