How to watch Kansas City Chiefs vs. Minnesota Vikings: Kickoff time, TV, betting odds

The Chiefs meet the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday, and this series has a first and last attached to it.

The teams met in Super Bowl IV, the last between the AFL and NFL champions, with the Chiefs taking a convincing 23-7 victory. The leagues merged, and the NFL schedule office decided to open the 1970 season with a rematch.

Kansas City and Minnesota became the first teams that had met in a Super Bowl to face off in the regular season. The Vikings won that game at home 27-10. The quarterback was Gary Cuozzo, and not Joe Kapp, who had led them to the Super Bowl but left as a free agent.

Both teams downplayed the rematch angle as the game approached, but Vikings Coach Bud Grant was perhaps more satisfied than usual after the victory.

“It happened eight months ago,” Grant said. “But they’ve been shoving it down our throats ever since. We couldn’t say anything because that’s the price you pay when you lose.”
