The Super Bowl has crowned the NFL champion every season since the Green Bay Packers defeated the Kansas City Chiefs in the first AFL-NFL World Championship Game in January 1967.
Since then, the game has produced dynasties, dramatic upsets, repeat champions and some of the most recognizable moments in American sports.
The latest champion is the Seattle Seahawks, who defeated the New England Patriots 29-13 in Super Bowl LX on February 8, 2026. Seattle running back Kenneth Walker III earned Super Bowl MVP honors after producing 161 yards from scrimmage.
This guide lists every Super Bowl winner by year, the runner-up and final score, then breaks down the teams with the most championships, repeat winners and other important records.

Who Won the Most Recent Super Bowl?
The Seattle Seahawks won Super Bowl LX on February 8, 2026, defeating the New England Patriots 29-13 at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, California.
Seattle controlled the game with defense, field position and a powerful rushing performance from Kenneth Walker III. Walker rushed for 135 yards and finished with 161 yards from scrimmage, earning Super Bowl MVP honors.

The championship was Seattle’s second Super Bowl title, joining its 43-8 victory over Denver in Super Bowl XLVIII.
Which NFL Teams Have Won the Most Super Bowls?
The New England Patriots and Pittsburgh Steelers remain tied for the most Super Bowl championships with six each.
| Team | Super Bowl Wins | Winning Super Bowls |
|---|---|---|
| New England Patriots | 6 | XXXVI, XXXVIII, XXXIX, XLIX, LI, LIII |
| Pittsburgh Steelers | 6 | IX, X, XIII, XIV, XL, XLIII |
| Dallas Cowboys | 5 | VI, XII, XXVII, XXVIII, XXX |
| San Francisco 49ers | 5 | XVI, XIX, XXIII, XXIV, XXIX |

Several franchises have won two championships, including the Miami Dolphins, Baltimore Ravens, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Los Angeles/St. Louis Rams, Indianapolis/Baltimore Colts, Philadelphia Eagles and Seattle Seahawks.
Which Teams Have Won Back-to-Back Super Bowls?
Winning consecutive Super Bowls is one of the hardest achievements in the NFL. The franchises that have successfully repeated include:
- Green Bay Packers: Super Bowls I and II
- Miami Dolphins: Super Bowls VII and VIII
- Pittsburgh Steelers: Super Bowls IX and X
- Pittsburgh Steelers: Super Bowls XIII and XIV
- San Francisco 49ers: Super Bowls XXIII and XXIV
- Dallas Cowboys: Super Bowls XXVII and XXVIII
- Denver Broncos: Super Bowls XXXII and XXXIII
- New England Patriots: Super Bowls XXXVIII and XXXIX
- Kansas City Chiefs: Super Bowls LVII and LVIII
Kansas City became the first team since the 2003-04 Patriots to repeat when it won Super Bowl LVIII in February 2024.
The Chiefs then reached Super Bowl LIX with a chance to become the first franchise to win three straight Super Bowls, but Philadelphia ended the bid with a 40-22 victory.
Has Any Team Won Three Super Bowls in a Row?
No team has won three consecutive Super Bowls.
The Green Bay Packers won three straight NFL championships from 1965 through 1967, but only the final two were Super Bowls. In the Super Bowl era itself, several franchises have repeated, but no team has completed a three-peat.
Kansas City came closest in the modern era after winning Super Bowls LVII and LVIII and returning to the championship game the following season.
The Philadelphia Eagles defeated the Chiefs 40-22 in Super Bowl LIX, ending that attempt. Jalen Hurts was named Super Bowl MVP after accounting for three touchdowns in the victory.
Which Team Has the Most Super Bowl Appearances?
The New England Patriots hold the record with 12 Super Bowl appearances.
New England reached its first Super Bowl after the 1985 season and later became the defining franchise of the early 21st century under head coach Bill Belichick and quarterback Tom Brady.
The Patriots returned to the Super Bowl in February 2026, losing 29-13 to Seattle in Super Bowl LX.
Other franchises with frequent appearances include the Dallas Cowboys, Pittsburgh Steelers, Denver Broncos, San Francisco 49ers and Kansas City Chiefs.
Which Team Has Lost the Most Super Bowls?
The New England Patriots and Denver Broncos have each recorded five Super Bowl losses.
Buffalo’s four defeats are particularly notable because they came in four consecutive Super Bowls from XXV through XXVIII. The Bills remain the only team to appear in four straight Super Bowls.
Minnesota also lost each of its first four Super Bowl appearances and has not yet won the championship.
Which Teams Have Never Won a Super Bowl?
Several NFL franchises still have not won the Lombardi Trophy. Some have reached the Super Bowl and lost, while others have never appeared in the game.
Because expansion, relocation and future championships can change this list, it should be reviewed after each season rather than treated as permanent historical data.
What Was the First Super Bowl?
The first championship game was played on January 15, 1967, at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum.
It was officially called the AFL-NFL World Championship Game at the time. The Green Bay Packers, coached by Vince Lombardi, defeated the Kansas City Chiefs 35-10.
Green Bay quarterback Bart Starr was named the game’s MVP. The Packers repeated the following year by beating the Oakland Raiders 33-14 in Super Bowl II.
What Is the Biggest Super Bowl Win?
The San Francisco 49ers own the largest margin of victory in Super Bowl history.
San Francisco defeated the Denver Broncos 55-10 in Super Bowl XXIV, a 45-point margin. Quarterback Joe Montana won Super Bowl MVP after throwing five touchdown passes.
The 55 points also remain one of the highest single-team totals ever recorded in the championship game.
Has a Super Bowl Ever Gone to Overtime?
Yes. Two Super Bowls in this list required overtime.
- Super Bowl LI: New England defeated Atlanta 34-28 after overcoming a 28-3 deficit.
- Super Bowl LVIII: Kansas City defeated San Francisco 25-22.
Super Bowl LI in February 2017 was the first overtime game in Super Bowl history.
How Is the Super Bowl Winner Determined?
The Super Bowl matches the AFC champion against the NFC champion at the end of the NFL postseason. The winner receives the Vince Lombardi Trophy and is recognized as the NFL champion for that season.
The playoff field is determined during the regular season. Conference playoff winners advance through the Wild Card, Divisional and Conference Championship rounds before meeting in the Super Bowl.
Super Bowl Winner vs. NFL Season Year
The year attached to a Super Bowl can be confusing because the championship is normally played in January or February following the regular season.
For example:
- The 2025 NFL season ended with Super Bowl LX in February 2026.
- The 2024 NFL season ended with Super Bowl LIX in February 2025.
- The 2023 NFL season ended with Super Bowl LVIII in February 2024.
In this article, “by year” refers to the calendar year in which the Super Bowl itself was played.
