NFL Championship Game

The NFL Championship Game was the original name for what is now known as the Super Bowl, determining the league champion. It was played annually from 1933 to 1966 between the winners of the Eastern and Western NFL divisions. The game showcased the best teams of the season, featuring high-level football and often dramatic finishes. In 1967, it evolved into the Super Bowl following the NFL-AFL merger, becoming a larger, more prominent event that includes a championship game between the NFL and AFL champions. Today, the Super Bowl remains the league’s final game, celebrating football excellence with a major event and entertainment spectacle.
