Super Bowl LIV: Miami Has Been Good to the Chiefs

All year, the best three teams in the AFC were the Ravens, Patriots and Chiefs. And it sure looked like they were going to be seeded in that order.

The Chiefs playoff run was made quite a bit easier in Week 17 when the Miami Dolphins pulled a shocking upset. Instead of hosting the Titans in the Wild-Card Round, the Chiefs received the #2 seed and a first-round bye.

In the wild-card round, the Tannehill-led Titans knocked off the Patriots. So instead of facing the Patriots, the Chiefs got to host the #4 seed Texans.

The Titans then beat the #1 seed Ravens. Thanks to them, the Chiefs didn't have to face either New England or Baltimore. And why did the Titans make the playoffs? Because Miami traded Tannehill to Tennessee in March.

Miami has been key for the Chiefs in the playoffs. And now KC gets to play for the Lombardi in Miami.
