The moment is here! Almost 8 minutes into the first quarter of the Kansas City Chiefs [https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/nfl/kansas-city-chiefs-nfl/] vs. Detroit Lions [https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/nfl/kansas-city-chiefs-nfl/] season opener, the Lions ‘roared’ harder as they showcased their explosive offense power. As the adrenaline continues to rush among fans on both sides, the moment certainly put Patrick Mahomes‘ squad in a spot of bother. But what happened next didn’t surprise the Chief’s fans. LIVE UPDATE: DETROIT LIONS’ TOUCHDOWN MOMENT The season opener game night at the Arrowhead Stadium is building up, but the ‘big guys’ have declared their intentions loud and clear. In a gambling move, the Lions’ squad managed the fourth down conversion into an efficient drive, finishing with a nine-yard touchdown on third down by none other than Lions’ WE Amon-Ra St. Brown. The glorious moment came after Dan Campbell’s squad displayed a strong show of faking a punt in the opening minutes. This took a twist as the Chiefs didn’t waste any time to get to the end zone. PATRICK MAHOMES’ 2ND QUARTER MAGIC As early tensions built up among Chiefs’ fans, this season’s favorite Patrick Mahomes [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/pat-mahomes/] came in style and declared he was here to win on the home ground. The 2X SB champ moved the ball in an easy move, before picking a rookie WR for a goal-line touchdown pass, only to knot the score at 7. Chiefs served this feast at almost 11:50 minutes into the second quarter. The heart says Chiefs, but the mind remains stuck with the Lions as fans wish for a comeback from a team, known for its glorious wins in the pre-Super Bowl era. Campbell is still rolling the dice, but the Chief’s night without Chris Jones is still alive! Stay tuned in for more updates.

Almost eight minutes into the game, Detroit Lions, who boast an explosive
defense, shocked Chiefs' fans in a rather gambling move

<h2 style="text-align: center">Detroit Lions 2022: News, Schedule, Roster, Score, Injury Report</h2>
<p style="text-align: center">The club was originally founded in Portsmouth, Ohio, and enlisted in the NFL in 1930 going by the Portsmouth Spartans banner. 4 years later, in 1934, the team relocated to Detroit citing financial struggles. Furthermore, the franchise was renamed to the Lions with reference to the city?s MLB counterpart franchise going by the Tigers.</p>
<img class="aligncenter wp-image-483977 size-full" src="https://www.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/lyon.jpg" alt="" width="1080" height="991" />
<p style="text-align: center">The very next year, they enjoyed tremendous success as they went on to win 4 championship games between 1935 to 1957. However, their success hasn?t seen the same peak since then, as they have only won a single playoff game in 1992.</p>
<p style="text-align: center">Additionally, they are the oldest NFL franchise to never appear in the Super Bowl. They also go down as the only team from the NFC to not appear for the same. This has long since been a talking point surrounding the franchise, considering their tenure in the league.</p>
<img class="aligncenter wp-image-483986 size-full" src="https://www.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/wire.jpg" alt="" width="1000" height="600" />
<p style="text-align: center">Heading through to Week 14 of the 2020 season, the Detroit Lions have accrued a record of 5-8 and are placed 4th in the NFC North. However, this is an improvement from their previous season record that topped out at 3-12-1. Moreover, the principal owner Martha Firestone Ford stepped down and passed on the ownership to her daughter Sheila Ford Hamp on June 23rd, 2020.</p>

<h2 style="text-align: center">Logo</h2>
<p style="text-align: center">The classic blue prancing Lion logo was brought into the fold from the 1961 season but wouldn?t be made the primary logo till 1970. The logo has seen minor reiterations, chiefly stemming from a stylistic change to the outline. The Honolulu blue outline was swapped for a black outline after 2002, and it ran until 2008.</p>
<img class="aligncenter wp-image-483982 size-full" src="https://www.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/def.jpg" alt="" width="1280" height="720" />
<p style="text-align: center">The present logo of the Detroit Lions has been active since February 1st, 2017, and underwent a minor tweak from the previous design that ran from 2009 to 2016. Chiefly, the difference was the change in the color of the outline, which went from black to metallic silver.</p>

<h2 style="text-align: center">Detroit Lions Owner Achievements</h2>
<p style="text-align: center">Sheila Ford Hamp is a descendant of both Ford and Firestone family fortunes, and she became the principal owner in June 2020 when her mother Martha Firestone Ford stepped down. Prior to her role as the principal owner and chairperson, Sheila Hamp served as the vice chairperson of the Detroit Lions since 2014.</p>
<img class="aligncenter wp-image-483995 size-full" src="https://www.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/huddle.jpg" alt="" width="1920" height="1280" />
<p style="text-align: center">Additionally, she serves on the NFL?s Super Bowl and Major Events committee alongside many key figures in the league. Following a 4-7 start to the 2020 season under her ownership, Sheila would fire General Manager Bob Quinn and Head Coach Matt Patricia.</p>

<h2 style="text-align: center">Detroit Lions 2022 Sponsors</h2>
<p style="text-align: center">A marquee sponsor out of Detroit came in the form of Quick Lane Tire and auto center, which provides routine service and up-keep maintenance for its customers. Additionally, they have had successful tie-ups with Quicken Loans as well as Windsor Family Credit Union. Additionally, the Detroit Lions have also partnered up with Coppercraft Distillery and they offered branded products at 6 bar locations within the parameters of Ford Field.</p>
<p style="text-align: center">BetMGM has also joined up with the Lions and will be the first official sports betting partner for the franchise. Not to mention, the Detroit Lions have a partnership with Humanetics who serve as the presenting sponsor for the club. Events are put together to recognize and honor active duty and former service members.</p>

<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9"><b>Kansas City Chiefs 2024: News, Schedule, Roster, Score, Injury Report</b></h2>
The Kansas City Chiefs <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.profootballhof.com/teams/kansas-city-chiefs/team-history/#:~:text=Although%20the%20Texans%20fared%20well,team%20had%20experienced%20in%20Dallas." target="_blank" rel="noopener">originated</a> a few miles to the South in the state of Texas, where they joined the AFC in 1960 as the Dallas Texans. The franchise played in the AFL for 3 seasons before relocating to Missouri for the 1962 AFL season, renaming themselves. The unit won the AFL Championship in their last season at Dallas.
<div class="jsx-1883686743">
<div class="jsx-1228487301 es-image-loader-aspect-ratio"><img id="img-tag-node--img-loader-0" class="jsx-1228487301" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/20200930160454/1-2-1-scaled.jpg" /></div>
</div>
They repeated the feat twice (1966 and 1969) in the AFL era in Kansas. On the 2nd occasion, they clinched the Super Bowl by beating the Minnesota Vikings. They ply their trade in the AFC West alongside Denver Broncos, Los Angeles Chargers, and Las Vegas Raiders.

Despite moving, the Chiefs have retained their jersey colors and still play football in red and white.
<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9"><b>Kansas City Chiefs Logo?</b></h2>
The Kansas City Chiefs' first <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://1000logos.net/chiefs-logo/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">logo</a> featured a cowboy with a gun in his right hand and a football in his left. The background was the state of Texas.

When the franchise moved North to Kansas City, the man was replaced by an individual in yellow headgear, and a tomahawk replaced the gun?
<div class="jsx-1883686743">
<div class="jsx-88890018 es-image-loader-aspect-ratio"><img id="img-tag-node--img-loader-0" class="jsx-88890018" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/20200930161452/Kansas-City-Chiefs-Logo-History-1.jpg" /></div>
</div>
The logo remained till the 1972 season before the franchise shook things up. They introduced an arrowhead logo in keeping with their stadium, the <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20080609052751/http://www.kcchiefs.com/history/70s/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Arrowhead</a> Stadium. The logo had a black border and featured the letters. KC in red with a white background.

Lamar Hunt's design which was sketched on a napkin has remained on the jersey for nearly half a century and is synonymous with the franchise.
<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9"><b>Owner Achievements</b></h2>
Lamar Hunt founded the Kansas City Chiefs and served as the owner until his demise in 2006. This is the man who first <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.theatlantic.com/entertainment/archive/2011/01/how-the-super-bowl-got-its-name-the-real-story/70287/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">used</a> the term "Super Bowl" for the AFC vs NFC season-ending clash. His wife Norma Hunt has attended every Super Bowl game and was present on the sidelines for both of the Kansas City Chiefs' triumphs.

The team's operations are handled by her son Clark Hunt, who oversaw the end of an unfortunate streak. In 2016, the Kansas City Chiefs blanked Houston Texans 30-0 to advance to the 2015 Divisional Playoffs. The win ended the team's 22-year wait for a playoff win.
<div class="jsx-1883686743">

</div>
The 8-game losing <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20160119214232if_/http://www.nfl.com/gamecenter/2016010900/2015/POST18/chiefs%40texans#menu=gameinfo&amp;tab=recap" target="_blank" rel="noopener">streak</a> from their triumph against Houston Oilers on January 16, 1994, right until their glorious win at the NRG Field on January 9, 2016.
<div class="jsx-1883686743">
<div class="jsx-779505921 es-image-loader-aspect-ratio"><img id="img-tag-node--img-loader-0" class="jsx-779505921" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/20200930160736/3-58.jpg" /></div>
</div>
While the team didn't build on this and lost their next game, it showed that the Hunt family had the right vision for the future.

The defending champions put up a 14-2 record in 2020 and rounded out the regular season with a first-place finish in the AFC West.

The Kansas City Chiefs have won 2 Super Bowl titles. The first came in the <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.pro-football-reference.com/boxscores/197001110kan.htm" target="_blank" rel="noopener">4th</a> NFL season with quarterback Len Dawson claiming the MVP trophy.

</div>
After 50 years and almost a generation later, the Chiefs made it to the <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.pro-football-reference.com/boxscores/202002020kan.htm" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Super Bowl</a>. Here it appeared they would fall at the final hurdle. However, star quarterback Patrick Mahomes had other ideas and dominated the San Francisco 49ers to snatch the unlikeliest of victories from the jaws of defeat. The Kansas City Chiefs were successful to defend their Super Bowl Champions' status.

Under Andy Reid, in 2023 season, the Kansas City Chiefs were aiming to become the first team to defend a Super Bowl since the New England Patriots' successful effort in 2005. And they successfully achieved that.

Besides this, the franchise has won 16 Divisional Titles (eight straight titles) and 5 Conference Championships and reached the <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.pro-football-reference.com/teams/kan/index.htm" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Playoffs</a> 25 times.
<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9"><b>The Patrick Mahomes era</b></h2>
The Kansas City Chiefs are set to be a force to reckon with for many seasons. They are on their way to becoming a dynasty which in retrospect kicked off in <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.pro-football-reference.com/teams/kan/2017_roster.htm" target="_blank" rel="noopener">2017</a>. This was when the franchise elected to make Texas Tech's <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="http://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/patrick-mahomes/" target="_self" rel="noopener">Patrick Mahomes</a> their top draft pick at 10th overall in the 2017 NFL Draft.

After a year on the sidelines, behind Alex Smith, Mahomes claimed the starter's role. He threw a combination of 5,000 passing yards and 50 touchdown passes en route to the <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.pro-football-reference.com/awards/ap-nfl-mvp-award.htm" target="_blank" rel="noopener">NFL MVP</a> in 2018.
<div class="jsx-1883686743">
<div class="jsx-832196838 es-image-loader-aspect-ratio"><img id="img-tag-node--img-loader-0" class="jsx-832196838" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/20200930160826/5-44.jpg" /></div>
</div>
They fell in the conference championship <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.pro-football-reference.com/boxscores/201901200kan.htm" target="_blank" rel="noopener">game</a> to the eventual Super Bowl winners, the New England Patriots.

A year later, Mahomes lived up to lofty expectations. Though he couldn't secure back-to-back MVP awards, he showed the league that they should count the Chiefs out at their own risk.

The Kansas City Chiefs quarterback orchestrated a series of comebacks in the post-season to help get the Vincent Lombardi Trophy back to Missouri after half a century.
<div class="jsx-1883686743">
<div class="jsx-779505921 es-image-loader-aspect-ratio"><img id="img-tag-node--img-loader-0" class="jsx-779505921" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/20200528123419/skysports-patrick-mahomes-kansas-city-chiefs_4897431.jpg" /></div>
</div>
He claimed the Super Bowl MVP for his efforts and was rewarded with a bumper contract. The Chiefs quarterback is set to lead 'The Legion of Zoom' for a considerable amount of time. He now boasts three Super Bowl trophies in his hand.

<h3>NFL</h3>
<h3>History</h3>
In August 1920, representatives from four states: Akron, Canton, Cleveland, and Dayton, held a meeting and formed the American Professional Football Conference (APFC) to improve footballing standards in the country. A month later, they formed the American Professional Football Association (APFA) and played a league with 14 teams. In 1922, they changed the name to the National Football League (NFL).

In 1960, a new professional league, the American Football League (AFL) started as a competition against the NFL. After six years, in 1966, the two leagues announced a merger that would take effect in 1970. During the four years between the announcement and the actual merger, the leagues started playing a Championship game which was called The Super Bowl. Since then, the two leagues have been recognized as two separate conferences within the same league, the NFL.
<h3>Participating teams</h3>
There are 32 teams in the NFL divided equally into two conferences: National Football Conference (NFC) and the American Football Conference (AFC). Each conference is further divided into 4 divisions: East, North, South, and West, with each division containing four teams.
