The Chicago Bears have won 712 regular season games, most in NFL history. Of course, the Bears even predate the “NFL”, having had their inaugural season as the Decatur Staleys in 1920. At the time, the Staleys, the Cardinals (playing in Chicago), and several since defunct franchises were playing in the American Professional Football Association. The next year, the Green Bay Packers joined, and in 1922, the APFA was renamed the National Football League.
The easiest trivia question of all time is which team has the most losses in NFL history. That would be the Cardinals, whose 699 regular season losses outpace the Detroit Lions by exactly 100. The Eagles have the third most losses, with 549.
But what if we examine performance in relatively modern times? Since the AFL-NFL merger in 1970, which team has the most regular season victories?
Take a second to think about it, or click on the multiple choice answers if you would like some hints:
Pittsburgh (396), holds a lead over Miami (385) and Dallas (381), and seems likely to retain the top spot for at least the next few years. The Broncos are fourth with 367, followed by the 49ers and Vikings, each at 364.
