It’s pretty wild that we are as far away from the super bowls, as they were from the start of the franchise. In a way it feels like those Kelly teams were yesterday but (now) there has been as much after as there was before….

We won the AFL championship in 1964 and 1965, only a few years after our franchise began in 1960. In 1966, the year of the first "Super Bowl", as it was retroactively termed, we lost the AFL Championship Game; otherwise we could have played the Packers for the SB.
