Since the NFL’s start in 1967, there have been nine teams to earn the right to be named back-to-back Super Bowl champions. None have pulled off the ever elusive “three-peat,” though some have come close.
Kansas City had a chance to become the first organization to accomplish the feat in 2024. The Chiefs fell short of that goal after being dismantled by Philadelphia.
Prior to the introduction of free agency, repeat champions were a bit more prevalent. Five of the nine back-to-back championships came before 1993, with a sixth team notching the achievement across the ’93 and ’94 seasons.
There has been just one team to win consecutive Super Bowls over the last 20 years. That most recent instance occurred in 2023.
Each of the nine organizations has a large following. These are some of the biggest brands in the sport, largely due to their dominance across certain eras.
Interestingly enough, the first repeat champion came in the very first try. The Green Bay Packers won Super Bowl I and II.
Vince Lombardi led the Packers to a Super Bowl win in 1966, the year the NFL and AFL merged. In the first ever Super Bowl, Green Bay took down the Kansas City Chiefs, 35-10.
Bart Starr threw for 250 yards in the game, with 138 going to top target Max McGee. The wideout also hauled in both of Starr’s touchdown passes.
The quarterback followed it up the very next season by leading his team to a 33-14 win over the Raiders in Super Bowl II where he again logged a 200-yard outing.
Technically speaking, the Packers were a three-peat champion as they also won the final NFL championship before Super Bowl I.
The 1972 Dolphins completed what remains the lone perfect season in NFL history with a 14-7 Super Bowl win over Washington. Miami went 14-0 before ripping off three straight playoff victories.
Larry Csonka was the hero in Super Bowl VII, rushing for 112 yards. He outshined that performance a year later in 1973, going for 145 yards and two scores in as 24-7 manhandling of the Vikings.
Miami was dominant in these two campaigns, winning 32 of 34 games. The Dolphins held each of their Super Bowl foes scoreless until the fourth quarter of play.
Miami’s two-year run was immediately followed with another repeat performance.
Pittsburgh won Super Bowl IX behind a dominant defense that ranked second in the NFL in points allowed. The Steelers won 10 games in the regular season before beating Buffalo, Oakland, and Minnesota in the playoffs.
The 16-6 win over the Vikings was the franchise’s first Super Bowl win. It would land its second very quickly.
In 1975, that defense returned to terrorize opposing offenses. Mel Blount led the NFL with 11 interceptions, and the squad allowed just 11.6 points per contest.
After going 12-2 in the regular season, Pittsburgh capped...
