What Happened Last Season?
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 wealthiest professional sport league by revenue, and the sport league with the most valuable teams. The regular season runs from September to December, with each team playing 16 games and having one bye week. Following the conclusion of the regular season, six teams from each conference (four division winners and two wild card teams) advance to the playoffs, a single-elimination tournament culminating in the Super Bowl, which is usually held on the first Sunday in February and is played between the champions of the NFC and AFC.
The NFL was formed in 1920 as the American Professional Football Association (APFA) before renaming itself as the National Football League for reasons stated below in 1923. The New York Giants were an original member of APFA/NFL but did not join until 1924. In 1932, two additional franchises were added with Boston joining as a member of NFL’s Eastern Division while Pittsburgh was placed into NFL’s Western Division. In 1933, another original member Cleveland Rams left APFA/NFL and joined American Football League while New York Giants also left APFA/NFL to join All-America Football Conference. Thereafter followed a series of mergers and folding of franchises. In 1966, NFL merged with rival American Football League (AFL) creating 26 total franchises including those who had joined AFL after its initial formation in 1960 like Buffalo Bills which became AFC East member while Cincinnati Bengals became AFC Central original members.
