Introduction

The National Football League (NFL) is a professional American football league consisting of 32 teams, divided equally between the National Football Conference (NFC) and the American Football Conference (AFC). The NFL is one of the four major North American professional sports leagues, the highest professional level of American football in the world. The NFL was formed in 1920 as the American Professional Football Association (APFA) before renaming itself the National Football League for the 1922 season.

The NFL is by far the most popular and richest professional sport in North America, and is also broadcast to a national television audience on Sunday afternoons and Monday nights during the regular season.

NFC

The NFC is full of teams that could go either way this season. The Packers are always a tough team to beat, but they have lost some key players in the offseason. The Cowboys always seem to find a way to win, but their offense is a little bit suspect. The Giants are a dark horse team that could make a run at the playoffs.

Dallas Cowboys

The Dallas Cowboys are a professional American football team based in the Dallas–Fort Worth metroplex. The Cowboys compete in the National Football League (NFL) as a member club of the league’s National Football Conference (NFC) East division. The team is headquartered in Frisco, Texas, and plays its home games at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, which opened for the 2009 season. The stadium took the place of the open-air Cotton Bowl, which served as the Cowboys’ home stadium from 1960 to 2008.

Green Bay Packers

The NFC, or National Football Conference, is one of the two conferences that make up the NFL, or National Football League. The other conference is the AFC, or American Football Conference. The NFC is made up of 16 teams, which are divided into four divisions – East, West, North, and South. The Green Bay Packers are a team in the NFC North division.

The Packers have won four Super Bowl championships – in 1967 (I), 1968 (II), 1997 (XXXI), and 2011 (XLV). They have also won nineteen NFL championships – more than any other team in the NFL. The Packers currently have thirteen players on their roster who have been selected for the Pro Bowl – an annual all-star game that features the best players in the NFL.

AFC

The team changed its name from the original Boston Patriots after relocating to Foxborough in 1971.

In contrast with their status as perennial also-rans in the pre-merger NFL, where they were famous for losing several games each season by a margin of save or two touchdowns, the Steelers of the post-merger era are one of the most successful NFL franchises. Since their 1974 restructuring into a traditional organization under Head Coach Chuck Noll, the team has won eight AFC Championships—tying the San Francisco 49ers and New England Patriots for second place behind only the Oakland Raiders—and played in an NFL record six Super Bowls, winning four times under coaches Noll and Bill Cowher. The Steelers have an intense rivalry with the Baltimore Ravens, buttressed by bitter resentment over past championships. Both teams average over 100 wins since 1970.
