The Super Bowl fever is at its peak ahead of the showdown between the Kansas City Chiefs and the San Francisco 49ers. NFL is a battleground, and the Super Bowl glory is a feat that is a dream for every football player. As players and fans eagerly await the game night of Super Bowl 58, everyone is anticipating the answer to one question: which NFL team will reign this season?
There are many placing bets on one of the two teams on the field. These bets are mostly based on the past wins that the two teams have secured, and the performance they have shown throughout the season. As we anticipate which team will secure a victory this season, here’s a detailed account of the top six teams with the most number of Lombardi Trophies in their grasp.
New England Patriots: Six Wins
The New England Patriots have not just conquered the NFL, but have also dominated it with an iron grip. Over the last two decades, the team has successfully scripted history by registering a total of six victories under their name. The turning point for the team was the 2002 season when they defeated the heavily favored St. Louis Rams in Super Bowl XXXVI despite being underdogs.
The Patriots then managed to achieve back-to-back wins in 2003 and 2004. Their crowning glory came in 2018 when they clinched a victory against the Kansas City Chiefs. Their most unforgettable moment remains the jaw-dropping 25-point comeback against the Atlanta Falcons in 2016. The team operates under head coach Bill Belichick and the leadership of Tom Brady.
Pittsburgh Steelers: Six Wins
The Pittsburgh Steelers are the NFL’s seventh-oldest franchise. After a 42-year wait, the Steelers won their first Super Bowl in 1975, which also marked the beginning of an era of dominance. Coached by Chuck Noll and featuring players Terry Bradshaw, Mel Blount, Jack Ham, Jack Lambert, and “Mean” Joe Greene, the Steelers have become unstoppable over the decades.
Their most remarkable feat came in the late ’70s, when they secured four Super Bowl victories in six seasons. The Steelers’ most recent triumph was their win against the Arizona Cardinals in 2009, which concluded with a game-winning touchdown pass from Ben Roethlisberger to Santonio Holmes.
San Francisco 49ers: Five Wins
Switching the focus to the West Coast, the San Francisco 49ers come next with five Super Bowl wins. The team is graced with some honed footballers including Ronnie Lott, Jerry Rice, Terrell Owens, and quarterbacks Steve Young and Joe Montana. The team’s rise to prominence began in 1981 when they won their first Super Bowl and continued through the ’80s and ’90s.
Under the coaching of George Seifert and Bill Walsh, the 49ers won multiple matches and etched their name in NFL history. Among their memorable triumphs, Super Bowl XXIII in 1989 stands out as Joe Montana’s brilliance with a game-winning touchdown pass to John Taylor shone through during the game. As they head into Super Bowl 58, the 49ers carry the weight of history and the expectation of adding another chapter to their legacy.

Dallas Cowboys: Five Wins
Joining the 49ers are the Dallas Cowboys who are famously crowned ‘America’s Team’. The Dallas Cowboys are led by some iconic players like Roger Staubach, Troy Aikman, and Emmitt Smith. The team also has a coaching lineage with Tom Landry and Jerry Jones.
Their journey to prominence began in 1972 when they emerged victorious against the Miami Dolphins. The Cowboys’ dominance in the ’90s was marked by three Super Bowl wins in four seasons. The sack by Bob Lily on Dolphins quarterback Bob Griese in 1972 remains a benchmark in Cowboys history. Their Super Bowl win against the Pittsburgh Steelers in 1996 also remains a symbol of football grandeur.
Green Bay Packers: Four Wins
The Green Bay Packers boast four Super Bowl victories and an illustrious pre-Super Bowl era. The Packers are a franchise steeped in tradition with coaches like Earl Lambeau and Vince Lombardi. Apart from their four Super Bowl wins, the team has also secured a staggering 11 NFL championships.
The Packers’ Super Bowl journey officially began in the 1966-1967 season, when they claimed victory in the inaugural match and then repeated the feat in 1967. The team has a rich quarterback legacy with Bart Starr, Brett Favre, and Aaron Rodgers as their most formidable players.
New York Giants: Four Wins
The New York Giants have twice played the role of kryptonite against the seemingly invincible New England Patriots. In 2008, the team thwarted the Patriots’ quest for an undefeated season as he secured a historic Super Bowl win with Eli Manning earning MVP honors. Four years later, the Giants repeated the feat and once again secured a feat against the Patriots.
The Giants’ legacy extends beyond these historic victories. Led by players like Michael Strahan, Antonio Pierce, Justin Tuck, and Eli Manning, the Giants have been resilient and brilliant. The famous helmet catch by David Tyree in the 4th quarter of Super Bowl XLII remains an iconic moment in the Giants’ history.
As the countdown to Super Bowl 58 is almost over, audiences are now anticipating which team joins the league and secures one more win under the name. The Super Bowl final is scheduled for Sunday at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas.
