The NFL football losers

The NFL playoffs are in full swing and though I don’t really watch football and more I was thinking, what teams have not been to the Super Bowl. This is what I found out. There are 32 teams currently in the NFL and of those there are 12 teams who have never won the Super Bowl, even worse there are 4 teams who never even played in the Super Bowl. Cleveland Browns: The Browns been in the league even before the Super Bowl was a thing but have never made it there. Detroit Lions: Like the Browns they have been in the league longer than the Super Bowl has been a thing. Their last championship was in 1957, 10 years before the Super Bowl started. Jacksonville Jaguars: They came into the league in 1995 and have not made it there in 30+ years now. Houston Texans: They joined the league in 2002, so it’s only been a little over 20 years. Maybe this could be their year. Of these teams only the Texans are still in this year’s playoffs. Though I have to cheer on my favorite team, the Seattle Seahawks, I would like to see the Seahawks and the Texans in the Super Bowl.

I used to watch NFL quite a lot. Circa Chicago Bears and the Refrigerator guy William Perry Don't really watch it these days but do know some NFL guy is marrying Taylor Swift. I had never heard of Jacksonville or Houston teams before

I think C.J. Stroud will mess it up too much for the Texans to get to the Super Bowl, but then their defense is so superb, you never know. I’d like to see anyone but the Patriots or Bears to win this year.

I can't say I know who that is as I really don't watch or follow football anymore. Being from Chicago originally, I guess I should be rooting for the Bears, but I always been a Seahawk fan. lol I do agree with anyone but the Patriots.

The Browns and Lions do have NFL championships that pre-date the Super Bowl. The other two have never won a championship.

Not a sports fan, football or otherwise. My Dad liked the San Francisco 49ers.

A lot of the teams are franchises and move to other cities and change their names

Yeah, this has happened for a few teams, like the Cleveland Browns whose owner move the team to Baltimore and changed to the Ravens. A new team started up in Cleveland and took the Browns name. The Houston Oilers move I forget where and a new team started in Houston, the Texans. Just to name a few.
