Chiefs DC Steve Spagnuolo thrilled by players looking forward to potential three-peat

The Super Bowl champions are still the Kansas City Chiefs following another NFL season. The team came together to pull off the back-to-back title bid and further etch their names in league history as the next great dynasty.

The praises have been loud and frequent for Steve Spagnuolo’s impressive job as the Chiefs defensive coordinator. He took time on Sunday to share his thoughts on players voicing their excitement to try for a three-peat on Super Bowl titles during his appearance on SiriusXM’s Mad Dog Sports Radio with host Jake Asman.

“Are you kidding me, our guys? All they’re saying is three-peat. I mean, I love professional athletes,” said Spagnuolo. “They just bubble with confidence. And it’s amazing that the guys thought about that immediately.”

The talks of a three-peat were immediately discussed by players following their Super Bowl LVIII victory, most notably by quarterback Patrick Mahomes.

“I mean, Patrick Mahomes might have been his first thought in the locker room after we won, and that just shows you what they’re made of guys like that elite athletes that if you win one, you want to win more,” Spagnuolo explained. “I mean, it’s a love challenge. And so I guess the next challenge, we try to go back to back to back.”

The Chiefs players under contract beyond the Super Bowl will have that on their minds while the front office gets to work on retaining stars and building from within the upcoming draft.
