Which teams have never won a Super Bowl?

Twelve of the 32 current teams have never won it. Eight have reached the game and lost: the Buffalo Bills (four straight losses, 1990 to 1993), Minnesota Vikings (four losses), Cincinnati Bengals (three), Atlanta Falcons (two), Carolina Panthers (two), Los Angeles Chargers (one), Tennessee Titans (one) and Arizona Cardinals (one). Four have never played in a Super Bowl at all: the Cleveland Browns, Detroit Lions, Jacksonville Jaguars and Houston Texans.

How has the playoff format changed?

  • 1966 to 1969: the NFL and AFL champions met in the Super Bowl after separate playoffs.
  • 1970: the leagues merged. Eight teams made the playoffs, four per conference.
  • 1978: expanded to 10 teams with a second wild card and a Wild Card round.
  • 1990: expanded to 12 teams with a third wild card; two byes per conference.
  • 2002: realignment to eight four-team divisions; four division winners plus two wild cards per conference.
  • 2020: expanded to 14 teams with a seventh seed; only the No. 1 seed gets a bye.
  • 2022: both teams guaranteed a possession in playoff overtime.

NFL playoff history in short

Sixty Super Bowls, 20 different champions, two franchises tied at six titles and 12 teams still chasing their first. The Seahawks hold the trophy until Super Bowl LXI on February 14, 2027. Each season’s full bracket and results will be added here as a separate page after the Super Bowl.

Who won the first Super Bowl?

The Green Bay Packers beat the Kansas City Chiefs 35-10 on January 15, 1967 at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum. It was called the AFL-NFL World Championship Game at the time and only later became known as Super Bowl I.

Has any team won three Super Bowls in a row?

No. Eight teams have won back-to-back titles, most recently the Kansas City Chiefs in the 2022 and 2023 seasons, but every attempt at a third straight has failed. The Chiefs lost Super Bowl LIX to the Philadelphia Eagles going for the three-peat.

What is the biggest blowout in Super Bowl history?

Super Bowl XXIV, when the San Francisco 49ers beat the Denver Broncos 55-10 in January 1990. The 45-point margin and 55 points scored are both records.

Which Super Bowls went to overtime?

Two. The New England Patriots beat the Atlanta Falcons 34-28 in Super Bowl LI after trailing 28-3, and the Kansas City Chiefs beat the San Francisco 49ers 25-22 in Super Bowl LVIII.

Which city has hosted the most Super Bowls?

The Miami area and New Orleans have each hosted 11 Super Bowls. New Orleans hosted its 11th with Super Bowl LIX in February 2025 to tie Miami.

Why is the Super Bowl numbered by season and not by year?

Each Super Bowl ends the season that started the previous autumn, so the game played in February 2027 is the championship of the 2026 season. The NFL numbers the game with Roman numerals to avoid that confusion.
