The Chiefs remain kings of the AFC West mountain.

After the Chargers were beaten by the Texans, the Chiefs hammered the Steelers 36-10 on Sunday and clinched the title.

It was the sixth straight AFC West championship for the Chiefs, the first time any team had won a half-dozen consecutive West titles.

The Broncos never did it. Neither did the Chargers. And the Raiders haven’t ever won six straight West titles.

Chiefs fans were thrilled to see their favorite team win another division title. Here is a sample of what was being said.
