Chiefs Seek First Super Bowl Three-Peat, but Don’t Forget the 1960s Green Bay Packers

As the Kansas City Chiefs aim to become the first team to win three consecutive Super Bowl titles, former Green Bay Packers great Jerry Kramer is quick to remind football fans that the Chiefs wouldn’t be the first team to achieve a three-peat.

Kramer, a Hall of Fame offensive lineman and key player on the Packers’ 1960s championship teams, laughed as he explained why he’s rooting against the Chiefs in their Super Bowl bid. The Packers won the first two Super Bowls and the final NFL championship before the league merged with the American Football League.

“I’ve been watching the whole NFL season and not rooting for the Chiefs,” Kramer said, chuckling. “I guess it’s just out of arrogance and a desire to retain your title as the best team ever. No one has touched that record for 60 seasons.”

However, after a moment of reflection, Kramer admitted admiration for the Chiefs, particularly quarterback Patrick Mahomes. “When you see that excellence and superior performance, you’ve got to admit it. They’re a hell of a football team,” he added.

As the Chiefs strive for a historic third consecutive Super Bowl victory, the Packers’ 1965-67 teams remain a testament to the NFL’s early dominance. The Packers were the champions before the merger, winning the first two Super Bowls and claiming the last pre-merger NFL title.

Hall of Fame linebacker Dave Robinson, a member of those Packers teams, believes there’s no question the Packers were the undisputed world champions for three consecutive years. Despite the Chiefs’ dominance in recent seasons, Robinson still takes pride in his team’s legacy. “In my mind, they wouldn’t say they broke any record. They’d just tie [our] record. You can’t really be upset if someone just ties your record.”

The Packers’ dominance in the ’60s was unparalleled, with several members of the team, including coach Vince Lombardi, enshrined in the Pro Football Hall of Fame. The Chiefs may be on the verge of greatness, but for many, including Robinson and others, the Packers’ legacy is etched in history.

As the Chiefs chase history, it’s important to remember that the Green Bay Packers’ three consecutive championships remain a monumental achievement in football history. Even if modern fans have forgotten or never learned about the Packers’ reign, players like Boyd Dowler are proud of their team’s accomplishments.

For Dowler, it’s not about the labels or records; it’s about the titles they won. “The fact is, we won three straight world titles. I don’t care whether you call it a Super Bowl, the world title, or whatever,” said Dowler. “Nothing that anybody says or does can take that away from us.”

The Packers’ legacy lives on, even if it’s sometimes overshadowed by today’s teams. But as history unfolds, the Chiefs’ pursuit of a third consecutive Super Bowl title serves as a reminder that some records are worth preserving.
