NFL Teams That Have Never Won a Super Bowl
12 Teams Still Waiting for Their Lombardi Trophy
Since the first Super Bowl in 1967, 12 NFL teams have yet to hoist the coveted Lombardi Trophy. Despite decades of play and passionate fan support, these franchises continue to search for their elusive Super Bowl victory.
The Vikings: Heartbreak and Disappointment
The Minnesota Vikings have made four appearances in the Super Bowl, but each time they have come up short. Their most recent loss came in 1977, and they have not returned to the big game since. The Vikings hold the unfortunate distinction of being one of the most successful teams in NFL history without a Super Bowl win.
The Bills: A Decade of Defeat
The Buffalo Bills made four consecutive Super Bowl appearances in the early 1990s, but they lost each time. Despite their consistent success during that era, the Bills have not been back to the Super Bowl since.
The Bengals: A Cinderella Season Gone Wrong
The Cincinnati Bengals made their first Super Bowl appearance in 1982, but they lost to the San Francisco 49ers. They returned in 2022 but again fell short. The Bengals have emerged as a contender in recent years, but they are still chasing their first Super Bowl title.
The Panthers: Early Success, but Still No Ring
The Carolina Panthers had a meteoric rise in the mid-1990s, making it to the Super Bowl in just their second season. However, they lost to the Denver Broncos, and they have not been back to the big game since.
The Falcons: A Heartbreaking Collapse
The Atlanta Falcons had a chance to win their first Super Bowl in 2017, but they squandered a 25-point lead against the New England Patriots. That heartbreaking loss remains the Falcons' only Super Bowl appearance.
The Cardinals: A Single Shot at Glory
The Arizona Cardinals made their only Super Bowl appearance in 2008, but they lost to the Pittsburgh Steelers. They have been close to a return trip in recent years, but they have yet to break through.
The Titans: A New Hope
The Tennessee Titans have made two Super Bowl appearances, but they have lost both times. Their most recent appearance came in 2020. With a promising roster and a strong quarterback in Ryan Tannehill, the Titans are hoping to break through soon.
The Chargers: A Long Wait
The Los Angeles Chargers made one Super Bowl appearance in 1994, but they lost to the San Francisco 49ers. Since then, they have been a consistent playoff contender, but they have not been able to reach the Super Bowl.
The Browns: A History of Struggle
The Cleveland Browns have the longest active Super Bowl drought in the NFL. They have never made it to the big game, and they have only won one playoff game since their return to the league in 1999.
The Lions: Perennial Underdogs
The Detroit Lions are one of just four NFL teams that have never made a Super Bowl appearance. They have a storied history, but they have struggled to find consistent success in recent years.
The Jaguars: A New Era
The Jacksonville Jaguars have only been around since 1995, so they have had limited time to challenge for a Super Bowl. They have made the playoffs just three times in their history, but they have yet to make a deep run.
The Texans: Still Finding Their Footing
The Houston Texans are the most recent team to join the NFL, beginning play in 2002. They have made the playoffs three times, but they have yet to advance past the Divisional Round.
