The problem with this and all other "Super Bowl" lists is that it does not cover the many, many years when the NFL Championship was not called the "Super Bowl."

There were only four actual "Super Bowls," i.e., the NFL champion playing the AFL champion, 1967-70, and only in the last two of these was the Super Bowl champion (Jets, Chiefs) a team other than the NFL champion.

So a better list would include ALL the NFL championship games, not just the "Super Bowls."

I'm from Chicago. The 1963 pre-"Super Bowl" Bears were as much NFL champion as the 1985-86 Bears.

I usually trick folks up when I ask them how many NFL championships have the Vikings won? Most of them don’t realize that the ‘69 Vikes were the last NFL champs before the merger.
