The Kansas City Chiefs' latest Super Bowl win didn't just establish the franchise as the NFL's newest dynasty, but it also managed to enrage the rest of the AFC West most perfectly.
The Chiefs now own four Super Bowl titles during their franchise history, good for the most among any AFC West team. Both the Denver Broncos and Las Vegas Raiders were tied at three Super Bowl wins each, while the Los Angeles Chargers don't even have a single Super Bowl title in their 64-year history. They get a participation trophy, I guess.
The Super Bowl LVIII win over the San Francisco 49ers hit all of the right buttons because of where it occurred, right in the Raiders' Allegiant Stadium. Winning a Super Bowl title in the stadium of your most bitter rival is about as glorious as it gets in terms of bragging rights. What stings more for the Raiders is the fact that Patrick Mahomes and Andy Reid have won more games in that stadium than any coach and quarterback combination for Las Vegas.
Raider tears aren't even the best part of this sweet, sweet victory. The Chiefs also got a chance to piss off the Denver Broncos, too.
Former Broncos QB John Elway was the AFC's honorary captain of Super Bowl LVIII. When the clock struck double zeroes and the Chiefs were champions once again, Elway had to deliver the Lombardi Trophy to the postgame ceremony.
Elway delivered that trophy well knowing that Kansas City had now surpassed Denver for the most Super Bowl titles by a team in AFC West history. The moment was almost humiliating for a quarterback who was once the biggest thorn in the side of the Chiefs' franchise. He had to walk through a tunnel of grinning Chiefs players and he had to hand that trophy over with a smile on his face, too.
It was a perfect chef's kiss to cap off a fantastic evening for the Chiefs Kingdom.
