There\u2019s still half of the 2024 NFL regular season to go. But attention is quickly rising around the notion of the two-time defending champion Chiefs running the table with an undefeated season, potentially putting an emphatic exclamation point on Kansas City\u2019s bid to have the league\u2019s first three-peat of the Super Bowl era.<\/p>\n

The 8\u20130 Chiefs have not lost since Christmas Day last year, are the NFL\u2019s last team this season without a loss, and are currently favored in all but one of their remaining nine games\u2014a Nov. 17 road contest at the 7\u20132 Bills. But the bid to become the NFL\u2019s first undefeated team since the 1972 Dolphins is already drawing notice from the likes of The New York Times, USA Today, and ProFootballTalk, and is becoming a dominant storyline of this season.<\/p>\n

Only two of the Chiefs\u2019 eight wins to date, however, have been by more than one touchdown, and numerous injuries have beset the team. The average margin of victory of seven points is also an NFL-record low for a team that has won its first eight games. But the victories for Kansas City keep coming.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou can only give them so many chances,\u201d Buccaneers quarterback Baker Mayfield said after a 30\u201324 overtime loss to the Chiefs on Monday Night Football<\/em>.<\/p>\n

On one level, the Chiefs\u2019 ongoing dominance is a result of their aggressive offseason spending, which included giving position-specific salary records to players such as kicker Harrison Butker and center Creed Humphrey. Team management, led by owner Clark Hunt, has prioritized using nearly all available salary-cap room in pursuit of continued winning, and the team\u2019s remaining space of $2.9 million is the third-smallest figure in the league.<\/p>\n

The team\u2019s success, with 14 consecutive wins and counting extending to last season, is also a likely boost to ongoing stadium deliberations involving potential sites in both Missouri and Kansas.<\/p>\n

Riding the Wave<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The Chiefs\u2019 quest for perfection is also likely to be a sizable aid to the NFL\u2019s broadcast partners. The team was already a prime factor in the 2024 league schedule, and it will be a featured part of Netflix\u2019s highly anticipated entry into NFL game broadcasts.<\/p>\n

After overtaking the Cowboys as the league\u2019s top viewership draw, the Chiefs on Sunday will play their first 1 p.m. ET game of the season after starting with four prime-time games and four more in the 4 p.m. window.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
