    Fairly easy trivia question...

    Name the 6 teams that have never been to a Super Bowl.

    Re: Fairly easy trivia question...

    I'm assuming teams that are currently in existence (i.e. the Baltimore Ravens, since they moved to Baltimore, are a different team than the Cleveland Browns)

    Saints
    Texans
    Cardinals
    Browns
    Jaguars
    Lions

    Re: Fairly easy trivia question...

    How many knew that the Lions used to be based in Portsmouth, Ohio and were calle dthe Spartans? I found this anecdote about the team to be particularly interesting:

    With a record of 6-1-4 the Spartans finish in a flat-footed tie for the NFL title with the Chicago Bears. It was the first time in history that the season ended with 2 teams atop the league's standings. After the season's final games, the league office arranged for the first playoff game in NFL history. However, the game was moved indoors to Chicago Stadium because of bitter cold and heavy snow. The arena allowed only an 80-yard field that came right to the walls. The goal posts were moved from the end lines to the goal lines and, for safety, inbounds lines or hash-marks where the ball would be put in play were drawn 10 yards from the walls that butted against the sidelines. The Bears won 9-0, scoring the winning touchdown on a two-yard pass from Nagurski to Grange. The Spartans claimed Nagurski's pass was thrown from less than five yards behind the line of scrimmage, violating the existing passing rule, but the play stood. This leads to one of the most significant rules changes in football history. League owners agree to make the forward pass legal from anywhere behind the line of scrimmage. The pass adds a new dimension and becomes the game's most dangerous weapon. The game also leads to divisional play and an annual playoff game to decide the NFL Championship in future years.

    One, in 1969. Though they lost the Super Bowl.

    One.

    Techincally the 1969 NFL Champion was the Vikings when they beat the Browns 27-7. The Super Bowl was really the AFL-NFL Championship game and the Chiefs beat the Vikes 23-7 in that game.
