The Lions are the oldest team to not yet appear in a Super Bowl, as the Chicago/St. Louis/Phoenix/Arizona Cardinals made their first Super Bowl appearance in 2008 (Super Bowl XLIII) against the Pittsburgh Steelers. The Lions last won an NFL championship in 1957 (against Cleveland) and that is second only to the Cardinals franchise which last won an NFL championship in 1947 (against Philadelphia).

The Cardinals have currently the longest championship drought of all of the big four North American sports leagues (NFL, NHL, NBA, and MLB), with the Cleveland Indians (1948) and the Rochester/Cincinnati Royals/Kansas City/Sacramento Kings (1951) in second and third respectively.
