NFL Football Today
Here’s a look at the NFL football games today. All times are Eastern.
New England Patriots
The New England Patriots are a professional American football team based in the Greater Boston region. The Patriots compete in the National Football League (NFL) as a member club of the league’s American Football Conference (AFC) East division. The team plays its home games at Gillette Stadium in the town of Foxborough, Massachusetts, which is located 28 miles (45 km) southwest of downtown Boston.
The Patriots are also headquartered at Gillette Stadium. An original member of the American Football League (AFL), the Patriots joined the NFL in 1970 after the AFL–NFL merger. The team changed its name from the original Boston Patriots after relocating to Foxborough in 1971. The Patriots played their home games at Foxboro Stadium from 1971 to 2001, then moved to Gillette Stadium at the start of the 2002 season. The Patriots’ rivalry with the New York Jets is considered one of the most bitter rivalries in the NFL.
Bill Belichick has been head coach since 2000, making him the longest-tenured head coach in NFL history. The franchise has compiled a winning record in every season since 2001, and has won 15 AFC East division championships, 17 AFC championships, and seven Super Bowl championships since that time. As of 2020, they have appeared in ten Super Bowls, winning seven of them; this includes appearances and victories in three of four years between 2001 and 2004, along with appearances and losses in 2007 and 2011 and victories again in 2014 and 2016. From 2001 to 2018, they reached an NFL-record eight consecutive Super Bowls during that time frame.
Los Angeles Rams
The Los Angeles Rams are a professional American football team that competes in the National Football League (NFL). The Rams franchise was founded in 1936 as the Cleveland Rams in the short-lived second American Football League (AFL) before joining the NFL the next year. In 1946, the franchise moved to Los Angeles. The Rams franchise remained in the metro area until 1994, when they moved to St. Louis. The Rams franchise returned to Los Angeles in 2016.
The Rams organization has won three NFL championships, and is the only one to win championships representing three cities (Cleveland in 1945, Los Angeles in 1951, and St. Louis in 1999). The franchise has recorded 19 postseason appearances, winning four NFL Western Division titles and seven NFL Championships, all while representing St. Louis – more than any other team in NFL history who has represented only one city during their history. They are also the first, and currently only team to win a championship as a wild card team, as well as being the first ever NFC #1 seed to lose in the NFC Championship game at home.
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. They are one of the most successful teams in the history of the NFL, having won eight Divisional titles and five Super Bowls.
Green Bay Packers
The Green Bay Packers are a professional American football team based in Green Bay, Wisconsin. The Packers compete in the National Football League (NFL) as a member club of the league’s National Football Conference (NFC) North division. It is the third-oldest franchise in the NFL, dating back to 1919, and is the only non-profit, community-owned major league professional sports team based in the United States. Home games have been played at Lambeau Field since 1957.
The Packers are the last of the “small town teams” which were common in the NFL during the league’s early days of 1931 to 1950. Founded in 1919 by Earl “Curly” Lambeau and George Whitney Calhoun, the franchise traces its lineage to other semi-professional teams in Green Bay dating back to 1896. Between 1919 and 1920, the Packers competed against other semi-pro clubs from around Wisconsin and Michigan then joined the American Professional Football Association (APFA), organized by Lambeau and Calhoun. The team qualified for the APFA playoffs twice before winning it all in 1929.
