Chiefs aim to make history in city where they won their first Super Bowl. Eagles stand in the way

NEW ORLEANS (AP) – The Kansas City Chiefs try to make history against the Philadelphia Eagles by winning a third consecutive Super Bowl, this time in the same city where they won their first.

They beat the Vikings in Super Bowl IV in January 1970. That game was played at old Tulane Stadium, which is close to where the Chiefs have practiced this week at Tulane University.

But he nonetheless appreciates the symmetry of trying to hoist a record third consecutive Lombardi Trophy in New Orleans on Sunday night.
