The History of the Kansas City Chiefs (1960-2020)

A timeline of the history of the Kansas City Chiefs. From 1960, through the golden years of Hank Stram and Len Dawson, to the dark years of losing seasons and playoff droughts. Then the reemergence into a powerhouse of professional football. Here is a short view of the 60+ history of one of the premier teams in the National Football League.

Note: Quarterbacks shown led that season in passing yards for the Chiefs. Not an exhaustive list of Chiefs' starting quarterbacks. That would be too long of a video.

As a Chiefs fan from the very start I must say that this was like a stroll down memory lane. It's easy to see why I love Andy Reid as the best chiefs coach ever. Thanks for this great piece of History.

Great work! A noteworthy historical moment that wasn't mentioned- the first-ever playoff game at Arrowhead 1991 Chiefs beat the Raiders.

Great video I love it! Born and raised in Kansas City and I've always been a die hard Chiefs fan my entire life. I've stuck with them through all their tough times and hardships from Marty ball when we couldn't get over that playoff hump through the Todd Haley era where we would be lucky to win a game. Now that we have Andy Reid coaching and a starstuded franchise quarterback in Patrick Mahomes they are definitely making up for so many horrible years us Chiefs fans had to endure over the years.

A true die hard fan for 46 years this year. And I'm from, El Paso, Texas. Been to Arrowhead. The fans over there are awesome. Great people. The chiefs are America's team.

Great video...
But damb we had a hole lot of years of suck thank God for Andy Reid.

[joshsimpson]

Great video. Poor Marty. So many wins, but such a poor playoff record. He made me crazy at times. Still bitter over Elvis Grbac over Rich Gannon in 97. I'm glad we are so blessed now.

Very enjoyable! As someone who has been invested as a fan of this team since the mid-60's, had season tickets in BOTH KC stadiums and seen the highs and lows through the years, spending the necessary moments of watching this video, for me, was time well spent. Outstanding work! Long Live the AFL. PS: "how bout

I’ve been a Chiefs fan since Steve Deberg era. The wait has been worth every second!! Thank you Andy and Pat💯

I love my Kansas City Chiefs! I worked at Arrowhead Station 4 years. What an experience! You still feel all the energy trapped in the stadium days after each game played!
Born and raised here. And like the energizer bunny still going. Red and gold baby!

Man Great video 💪🏽💪🏽, definitely helped me out with the history for sure, I’m from Rockford Illinois but was born a bears fan, after a while they were trash ended up a chiefs fan in 2012 but rarely was able to watch Chiefs games back then, fast forward Been trying to get as much knowledge bout em ever since that SB v 49ers.
This helped a lot, just wish I could’ve watched the chiefs How I watched the Bears

This was a great video and I am not even a Chiefs fans.
Hopefully you get more views, the video deserves it.
Very well done and fresh.
Hopefully if you have the time and patience to do all the teams.

[cecilbatt]

Very cool. Can't do it better than that, bro.

[kirvin]

Absolutely awesome video!
Very well put together!

[lukew]

The last few years has the Chiefs looking pretty damn good and the future is bright, but there is a lot of pain in that timeline. I'm glad myself and my fellow fans have reached the light at the end of the tunnel that was SB LIV.

[gregjerauld]

Whoever put this together is a genius. Brilliant video

[nobodysman]

Very well done, even if we Chiefs fans had to relive those 50 years of darkness and depression. Its nice to see how far we've gotten, and it shows recognition of how integral the Chiefs have been to the history of the NFL as it is now, despite the collective dismissal of their importance by fans of other teams.

[lbennhtx]

Wow this is great. Very well done! Proud Chiefs fan since early 70’s.

[MrShowwoff]

Great details of the history of the beloved chiefs. 1967 Chief fan here.
