The Chiefs next season will play a "home" game in London against the Lions, and Chair & CEO Clark Hunt "remains hopeful" his team’s decision will help them eventually land a Super Bowl, according to Terez Paylor of the K.C. STAR. The NFL recently amended a resolution that "requires a team that plays host to a Super Bowl also host an overseas game," and Hunt hopes that next year's game in the U.K. "will take care of that obligation for the next four or five years." Hunt: "The Super Bowl in New York opened the door for us and everyone else who has an open-air stadium to realistically think about bringing the Super Bowl here. ... When and if we get the opportunity -- and that’s an ‘if’ because the league hasn’t said we’re going outdoors yet -- but if we get the opportunity, we’ve got to put together a top-flight bid.” Hunt said that bringing a Super Bowl to K.C. "remains a priority, even though the day-to-day operations of the franchise currently take precedence." Hunt said that giving up a home game was a "tough decision ... he understands has irked some fans." Hunt: "I understand our fans’ disappointment with losing a home game at Arrowhead, and that was the hardest part about the decision for me. It is an initiative the league is very committed to, and I think eventually, everybody’s going to play a home game away. I just felt, for a lot of reasons, that this is the right year for us to go ahead and do it" (K.C. STAR, 3/3).
