The NFL, or National Football League, was first founded back in 1920 in the US. Since the merger in 1970 it has been formed by two conferences, the NFC and AFC battling it out between themselves. The champions of each conference then face each other in the final, most commonly known as the Super Bowl.
The Super Bowl is an international event that attracts millions of viewers from around the world. The viewing figures are well over 100 million, just for the final. This makes it the second most watched annual sporting event, after the UEFA Champions League Final.
There have been over fifty Super Bowl games, and they have become an increasingly large spectacle. The commercial airtime during the game is the most expensive of the year. Furthermore, there are usually huge stars performing both the national anthem before the game, and then their own sets during the game. Some people tune in just for these shows.
If somebody is doing this quiz, then it's because they know everything there is to know about the NFL. They know who has a long-standing rivalry with the Philadelphia Eagles. They know which player has been dominating as quarterback since 2000. They know which team has won more championships than all the rest. And of course, they know which team each of these logos belongs to. So have a go, but there's no way anybody can name 100% of these NFL logos.
