With an 11–2–1 regular season record, the Chiefs won the Western Division and defeated the Buffalo Bills 31–7 to win their second AFL Championship, their first in Kansas City.

By winning the AFL Championship, the Chiefs were invited to play in the inaugural AFL-NFL World Championship Game, which would later be known as Super Bowl I, against the NFL's Green Bay Packers. The contest between the best of the NFL vs AFL was a contest for one half, but the Packers pulled away in the second half for a 35–10 victory.
