Kids Encyclopedia Facts

The NFL championships are a big deal in American football! They include two main parts: the original NFL Championship games, which happened from 1920 to 1969, and the Super Bowl, which started in 1966 and is still played today. Many amazing players and teams have won these championships multiple times. The Green Bay Packers were especially dominant between 1960 and 1967, winning three NFL championships and the first two Super Bowls!
