Red Team Redemption

I've been playing a lot of Red Dead Redemption 2. Yesterday, when I was thinking about the Chiefs path to the Super Bowl, something clicked.

Their first opponent is the Colts. The team that's haunted us specifically in the playoffs the most.

After that is either the Patriots or the Chargers. The Patriots beat the Chiefs this year 43-40 and the Chargers beat the Chiefs 29-28 on that crazy ending.

To get to the Super Bowl, the Chiefs will need to find redemption twice.

And waiting for them? Possibly, the Rams. At one point the Rams and Chiefs were the only undefeated teams. Then the Rams beat the Chiefs 54-51 in the highest scoring game of the year, the game that most people have called the game of the year.

(Now, it could be the Saints or even Eagles or Cowboys.)

But facing the Rams in the Super Bowl would be the ultimate test of redemption on the biggest stage.
