The Kansas City Chiefs won Super Bowl LVII in a tightwire affair. The Chiefs held the Philadelphia Eagles defense down and powered their way to a 38-35 victory. Their historic win gave the franchise its third Super Bowl title and second since 2020. During the parade on Wednesday, the Chiefs decided to continue to taunt the Eagles. Specifically their touted defensive line.

This season, the Eagle defense recorded a franchise-record number of sacks. Don’t tell Kansas City that, as the Chiefs’ offensive line didn’t allow a single sack during the Super Bowl. That no doubt boosted their chances of winning, and sure enough, they did win the whole dang thing. Orlando Brown, fired up after the victory, had boasted, “Zero sacks. Put it on a f—— t-shirt.”

And so… that’s what the Chiefs did on Wednesday.

Kansas City earned every single right to boast and taunt when they won the Super Bowl. That is kind of how it works, so the natural response to saying, “Put it on a T-shirt” was to, in fact, put it on a T-shirt.

It’s a funny reversal of fortune for KC, and one they’re certainly happy about. Their Super Bowl LV loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers was mired due to a wizarding performance by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers defense. This time around, the Chiefs offensive line kept them in the game.
