Green Bay Packers10-6 28. Kansas City Chiefs 11-5 29. Arizona Cardinals 13-3 30. Carolina Panthers 15-1 31. Denver Broncos12-4 The Lions were established in 1930 and won 4 NFL championships (before the merger that created the NFL we see today.) They moved to Detroit in 1934 after being in Portsmouth, Ohio. This fact is sad but it also shows that there are still some teams that have never been to the Super Bowl. Not every team is fortunate enough to go to the big game and hopefully the Lions can one day go there. The former stadium is permanently closed and will be demolished this spring. If you want to check out the abandoned stadium, go soon unless it's already gone! "LET ME STRESS THAT I'VE NEVER INTENTIONALLY MADE A DIRTY PLAY IN MY LIFE, BECAUSE THIS IS THE WAY I LIKE TO LIVE. BUT IF YOU COME NEAR ME AND YOU'RE NOT IN THE PATTERN AND I HAVE A CHANCE TO HIT YOU-I'M GONNA HIT YOU." -Dick LeBeau For more on Detroit's Hall of Famers, visit:

Mile High's reigning Super Bowl champions are an interesting franchise. Here are some general facts about them:
Forget information about the mascot? No way! There are two mascots for the Broncos (a real horse that runs across the field and another real horse that goes around to meet fans *wink*).

Thunder likes to come out in the beginning with the team and even made the trip out to Santa Clara this year. This horse is well-trained and well-traveled.
Thanks for reading and stay strong through the off-season!
This is America's team (whether you like it or not). They were founded in 1960 and have blown up the league since. This team manages to be the center of attention every year and America cannot get enough. I mean, you know you're famous when you play on EVERY Thanksgiving. Here's to America's team!

Forget about what you hear about them in the media these days because this is the history of the Cleveland Browns.
