Every Super Bowl Champion, From Green Bay to Seattle

Kenneth Walker III carried 27 times for 135 yards while Seattle’s defense sacked Drake Maye six times. The Seahawks’ 29–13 victory over New England in Super Bowl LX made them the latest entry in a line of champions that began with Vince Lombardi’s Green Bay Packers 59 years earlier. It was Seattle’s second Super Bowl title, and Walker was the game’s MVP, according to the NFL’s account of Super Bowl LX.

That line is not the complete history of NFL champions. The NFL had awarded championships for 46 seasons before the first Super Bowl, initially by standings and later through a championship game. For that longer record, see every NFL champion since 1920.

Every Super Bowl champion by season

The year below is the season year, not necessarily the calendar year in which the Super Bowl was played. Seattle, for example, won the 2025 championship in February 2026. This convention keeps each champion attached to the season it completed.

Why the list begins in 1966

The first contest was a product of the agreement to merge the established NFL and the rival American Football League. On January 15, 1967, the leagues sent their 1966 champions to Los Angeles: Green Bay from the NFL and Kansas City from the AFL. The Packers won 35–10 in what was formally the first AFL-NFL World Championship Game, as the Packers’ historical record describes it.

Chiefs founder Lamar Hunt helped give the game its lasting identity. Kansas City’s biography of Hunt credits him with putting “Super Bowl” into use, drawing the phrase from his children’s Super Ball toy; it also credits him with proposing Roman numerals and later the Vince Lombardi Trophy name. The AFL-NFL merger was announced in June 1966, and the combined league began operating with the AFC and NFC in 1970.

That produces a historical distinction in the first four games. Green Bay entered Super Bowls I and II as NFL champion; the Jets and Chiefs entered III and IV as AFL champion. Winning the interleague game did not erase the other league’s championship. From the 1970 season onward, the Super Bowl matched the champions of two conferences inside one NFL. The Pro Football Hall of Fame’s championship chronology preserves that change in league identity.

Which franchise has won the most Super Bowls?

New England and Pittsburgh share the record with six victories each. The Patriots reached a record 12 Super Bowls through the 2025 season, while the Steelers went 6–2 in eight appearances. Franchise totals follow team continuity across relocations: the Raiders’ Oakland and Los Angeles wins belong to one franchise, as do the Rams’ St. Louis and Los Angeles titles and the Colts’ Baltimore and Indianapolis titles.

Super Bowl wins	Franchises
6	New England Patriots, Pittsburgh Steelers
5	Dallas Cowboys, San Francisco 49ers
4	Green Bay Packers, Kansas City Chiefs, New York Giants
3	Denver Broncos, Raiders, Washington Commanders
2	Baltimore Ravens, Colts, Miami Dolphins, Philadelphia Eagles, Rams, Seattle Seahawks, Tampa Bay Buccaneers
1	Chicago Bears, New Orleans Saints, New York Jets

These totals agree with the current Super Bowl franchise standings. They count only Super Bowls. Green Bay, for example, has four Super Bowl victories but 13 NFL championships when its nine pre-Super Bowl titles are included; the Packers’ championship history sets out that distinction.

Twenty of the NFL’s 32 current franchises have won the Super Bowl. Eight others have appeared but not won: Arizona, Atlanta, Buffalo, Carolina, Cincinnati, the Los Angeles Chargers, Minnesota and Tennessee. Cleveland, Detroit, Houston and Jacksonville have not appeared.

How championship power shifted

The first four results gave the new game its purpose. Lombardi’s Packers won twice for the older league, but Joe Namath’s Jets upset Baltimore in Super Bowl III and Kansas City followed by beating Minnesota. The AFL had proved its champion could beat the NFL’s before the leagues formally combined.

Pittsburgh then defined the 1970s, winning four times in six seasons. San Francisco won four championships in the 1980s and added a fifth after the 1994 season. Dallas answered with three titles in four seasons from 1992 through 1995.

New England’s run was longer. Its six victories stretched from the 2001 season through 2018, all with Bill Belichick as head coach and Tom Brady starting at quarterback. Kansas City later became the first repeat champion since New England’s 2003–04 teams, winning after the 2022 and 2023 seasons. Philadelphia stopped its attempt at an unprecedented Super Bowl three-peat with a 40–22 victory in Super Bowl LIX; the NFL’s game analysis records six Eagles sacks and no Philadelphia blitzes.

Nine back-to-back Super Bowl-winning runs have occurred: Green Bay, Miami, Pittsburgh twice, San Francisco, Dallas, Denver, New England and Kansas City. No franchise has won three consecutive Super Bowls. That is one reason the complete list reads less like a steady succession than a series of concentrated dynasties—each interrupted before a third straight Lombardi Trophy could be claimed.
