To the victors go the spoils, which is something the Kansas City Chiefs know very well these days. It didn’t take long for the AFC to adopt another dynasty following the Tom Brady/Bill Belichick era in New England.

The rest of the AFC may not like it, but the fact is that the Chiefs are the NFL’s new dynasty. That was made crystal clear this postseason, when Kansas City flexed its muscles on the road for the first time during a Patrick Mahomes-led playoff run. The Chiefs showed that, even when they’re not at their best, they’re still the team by which all other NFL teams are measured.
The Chiefs won their fourth AFC title in five years lately because of the performances of several individuals. Those players are recognized here as part of our All-AFC playoff team.
