Our All-Time Top 50 Kansas City Chiefs have been updated to reflect the 2022 Season
Yes, we know that this is taking a while!
As many of you know, we here at Notinhalloffame.com are slowly generating the 50 of each major North American sports team. That being said, we have existing Top 50 lists out and we always consistently look to update them when we can and based on necessity. As such, we are very happy to present our post 2022 revision of our top 50 Kansas City Chiefs.
As for all of our top 50 players in football we look at the following:
1. Advanced Statistics.
2. Traditional statistics and how they finished in the National Football League.
3. Playoff accomplishments.
4. Their overall impact on the team and other intangibles not reflected in a stat sheet.
Last year, Kansas City won their third Super Bowl and advanced in the overall hierarchy of the greatest NFL franchises of all-time. We saw three distinct rank elevations due to the powerful 2023 campaign.
As always, we present our top five, which did not change.
1. Len Dawson
4. Bobby Bell
5. Will Shields
You can find the entire list here.
Tight End, Travis Kelce, exploded from #13 to #6.
Quarterback, Patrick Mahomes, who is now a two-time MVP, also rocketed up the ranking. He went to #8 from #19.
Defensive Tackle, Chris Jones, advanced nine spots to #31.
We welcome your input and comments and as always, we thank you for your support.
6. Will Shields
The Kansas City Chiefs have had their share of great players on the Offensive Line, but there is one who stands above the rest; Will Shields.
