Which NFL Team Has the Most Wins Ever?
The answer to this question may surprise you! The team with the most wins ever is actually the Green Bay Packers, with a total of 773 wins. The Packers are followed by the New York Giants, who have 751 wins.
The 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 1922 and 1923. 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 the Midwest, before joining the American Professional Football Association (APFA), now known as the NFL, in 1921. Although Green Bay is by far the smallest major league professional sports market in North America, Forbes ranked the Packers as being worth US$1.075 billion in August 2015, making them joint-sixth along with several other NFL franchises being worth more than $1 billion dollars.
The New England Patriots
The New England Patriots have the most wins ever with an impressive 515-371-9 record. The Patriots have been dominant since their founding in 1960, winning a total of 15 division championships, 21 conference championships, and 8 Super Bowls. The Patriots are also the only team to have won 3 Super Bowls in a row (an accomplishment they achieved twice, first from 2001-2003 and again from 2014-2016). With such a decorated history, it’s no wonder the New England Patriots are considered one of the best NFL teams of all time.
The Pittsburgh Steelers
The Pittsburgh Steelers have the most wins of any team in NFL history. The team has won a total of six Super Bowls, and their .711 winning percentage is the best in the league. The team has also been to more conference championship games than any other team, and their 20 divisional titles are the most in the NFL. The Steelers have had a number of legendary players, including Terry Bradshaw, Joe Greene, and Franco Harris.
The San Francisco 49ers
The San Francisco 49ers have the most wins in NFL history. With 539 wins, they are well ahead of the second-place team, the Pittsburgh Steelers, who have 500 wins. The 49ers have also been to more Super Bowls than any other team, winning five of them.
