The annals of NFL history include 59 legendary and memorable Super Bowl matchups. Vince Lombardi’s Green Bay Packers dominated the 1960s with championship wins in 1966 and 1967. Joe Namath did the unthinkable and guaranteed a New York Jets victory over the Baltimore Colts in 1969, then lived up to his promise.
The Pittsburgh Steelers of the 1970s took home Super Bowl titles in 1975, 1976 and 1979. The Chicago Bears and their near-perfect defense led them to their first and only title back in 1986. The ’90s featured the Dallas Cowboys, who secured three titles in 1993, 1994 and 1996. And let’s not forget, the emergence of Bill Belichick, Tom Brady and the New England Patriots in the 2000s. They captured six titles from 2002 to 2019.
However, not every NFL team has won a Super Bowl. The Buffalo Bills and Minnesota Vikings are tied for the most Super Bowl appearances without an actual victory (4).
Only the Lions, Houston Texans and Jacksonville Jaguars have never made a Super Bowl appearance.
In the 2025-26 postseason, the Bills and Texans are still alive with a chance to change Super Bowl history while the Panthers, Jags and Chargers dropped Wild Card games to extend their streaks.
