Former NFL great Rob Gronkowski discusses the Kansas City Chiefs' chances of making history with another Super Bowl win. Gronkowski, who was on the New England Patriots teams that nearly won three consecutive Super Bowl titles, believes the Chiefs have a legitimate shot at a three-peat due to their upgraded offensive weapons and solid defense led by Patrick Mahomes and Chris Jones.

Chiefs Aim for Historic Three-peat, Gronkowski Weighs In
Rob Gronkowski, a key member of the New England Patriots teams that nearly won three consecutive Super Bowls, recently shared his thoughts on the Kansas City Chiefs' chances of making history with another Super Bowl win.
Gronkowski knows firsthand how difficult it is to win one Super Bowl, let alone three in a row. Only two teams have ever won three straight Super Bowls – the Green Bay Packers in the 1960s and the Patriots in the 2000s. The Chiefs are now attempting to join that exclusive club.

"You have a target on your back," Gronkowski said. "Everything has to fall in place in order for that to happen. The injuries have to stay low. Everyone has to stay healthy. Players have to be clicking. There has to not be any turmoil in the organization."
Despite the challenges, Gronkowski believes the Chiefs have the potential to pull it off.

"Just to see the Chiefs two-peat is spectacular enough," Gronkowski said. "To see them do possibly three this year, I mean, they’re going to be the first ones to ever pull it off, if they can pull it off, and I think they have a legitimate chance because I feel like their team upgraded."
The Chiefs added Marquise Brown and Xavier Worthy to their offense in the offseason, giving Patrick Mahomes even more weapons to work with. On defense, a lot of eyes will be on the secondary to see how it does without L’Jarius Snead, who was traded to the Tennessee Titans.

"If you got Patrick Mahomes more weapons, you got the defense that’s still pretty solid, especially with Chris Jones on the defensive side of the ball holding it up as their leader, but giving Patrick Mahomes more weapons than he had last year, how can you not put them in contention of winning it all again?" Gronkowski said.
Health will also be a key factor for the Chiefs. A banged-up Chiefs team will be unlikely to pull off the same magic it has in recent years in close games. The next-man-up mentality will have to take over to fill the void should it come to that.
If the Chiefs can stay healthy and continue to play at a high level, they have a good chance of making history with a three-peat. Gronkowski knows how difficult it is, but he believes the Chiefs have the talent and experience to get it done.
"A three-peat is definitely possible," Gronkowski said.
