The Kansas City Chiefs, led by quarterback Patrick Mahomes, are on a mission to achieve an unprecedented “three-peat” in the NFL—winning three consecutive Super Bowl titles.
This achievement would not only solidify the Chiefs’ dynasty but also elevate Mahomes’ standing in the ongoing debate about whether he can surpass Tom Brady as the greatest quarterback of all time (GOAT).
NFL Teams that have Won Three Conservative Super Bowl Titles
Historically, only a few teams have come close to this feat.
The Green Bay Packers, under Vince Lombardi, won three NFL championships from 1965 to 1967.
The Miami Dolphins, led by Don Shula, captured three consecutive AFC championships and two Super Bowls between 1971 and 1973.
The Pittsburgh Steelers, under Chuck Noll, won three AFC championships and two Super Bowls from 1974 to 1976.
The current debate about Mahomes versus Brady is intensifying. Mahomes has been exceptional, but he has yet to match Brady’s seven Super Bowl titles and remarkable career longevity. Analysts are divided on whether a three-peat would make Mahomes the GOAT.
During a recent ESPN’s “Get Up” show, former NFL defensive end Chris Canty argued that winning three consecutive Super Bowls in the current NFL, which is designed for parity, would crown Mahomes as the GOAT.
He highlighted the various iterations of the Chiefs’ roster and the challenges they have overcome as significant factors.
Conversely, Kevin Clark emphasized the uniqueness of Brady’s career, noting that it was a “football miracle.”
Clark argued that while Mahomes has sparked a legitimate GOAT debate, it is premature to anoint him as such. He suggested that Mahomes needs to sustain his success over a longer period, akin to Brady’s career span, which included a Super Bowl win at age 43.
The debate will undoubtedly continue, but one thing is clear: Mahomes has already made a significant impact on the NFL, and his quest for a three-peat will be closely watched by fans and analysts alike.
