Every year since 1966, the Super Bowl has given NFL teams the chance to prove who the league champions are on the biggest stage. Over the years there have been many Super Bowl winners and losers, but which team has won the most Lombardi trophies? Which football player has more Super Bowl rings than any other in NFL history?
Who has the most Super Bowl wins? That depends if you’re talking among players or teams. Don’t worry, we’ve got all the answers.
Five teams tied with one Super Bowl victory
There are a total of five teams with just one Super Bowl victory.
- New York Jets – 1969
- Chicago Bears – 1986
- New Orleans Saints – 2010
- Seattle Seahawks – 2014
- Philadelphia Eagles – 2018
While each team is in constant pursuit of becoming Super Bowl winners for a second time, it’s still better than the eight NFL teams who have never even won a league championship. In fact, there are four teams who have never even made a Super Bowl appearance, as sad as it is.
With the hot start the Eagles are off to in 2022, it’s possible they make the jump to the next section in February.

Six two-time Super Bowl winners
This is a little better group to be in if we’re grouping Super Bowls by team. Each of the teams listed below have won two Lombardi trophies in their franchise history.
- Miami Dolphins
- Indianapolis Colts
- Baltimore Ravens
- Kansas City Chiefs
- Tampa Bay Buccaneers
- Los Angeles Rams
Several of these teams could potentially leave this exclusive club if they’re able to make it to Super Bowl LVII. The Dolphins, Ravens, Chiefs, and Buccaneers all appear to have at least an outside shot.
Three-time Super Bowl champions includes group of historic NFL teams
Both the Denver Broncos and Las Vegas Raiders were founded in 1960. The Washington Commanders were founded in 1932, and they all have three NFL championships.
- Las Vegas Raiders
- Washington Commanders
- Denver Broncos
None of these teams look to have a chance to add a fourth piece of hardware to their trophy case in the 2022 season.
Green Bay Packers, New York Giants – Four wins in Super Bowl history
Two more teams who have been around forever, the Green Bay Packers began play in 1919 and the New York Giants in 1925. Both teams have enjoyed historic victories in their time. There’s a reason why Vince Lombardi has the Super Bowl trophy named after him, the Packers were dominant in the 1960s.
As great as these two franchises once were, they appear on the outside looking in, when it comes to getting back to Lombardi-land at the end of the 2022-23 season.

San Francisco 49ers, Dallas Cowboys – Five Super Bowl wins
Talk about dominance, the Dallas Cowboys had two eras to be proud of, with two Super Bowl wins in the 1970s and three more from 1984-94 thanks to a multitude of stars. The San Francisco 49ers have had some of the greatest players of all time and won a whopping five Super Bowls from 1981 to 1994. What a time to be alive.
While both of these franchises already have a legendary history, they’re both strong contenders as we get closer to the 2022 postseason. Yet, the 49ers’ chances took a big hit with Jimmy Garoppolo being ruled out for the season. This comes after losing their preferred starter, Trey Lance, at the start of the year.

Pittsburgh Steelers, New England Patriots – Six SB wins
No team has more Super Bowls than the New England Patriots and Pittsburgh Steelers, who each have six apiece. Eventually, there may be a team with more Super Bowl wins, but for now, the Steelers and Patriots have the ultimate bragging rights.
It looks like we’re at least a year away from either of these teams separating themselves further from the pack. While the defenses are as good as always, both teams’ offenses are really holding them back.

Players with the most Super Bowl wins
Teams have their own records, but players switch cities every offseason, meaning some players could win a Super Bowl every year if they have some luck. Which player has the most Super Bowl wins?
None other than Tom Brady of course. There’s a reason why they call him the GOAT. Seven Super Bowl rings will do that. Behind TB12 is pass rusher Charles Haley, who won two rings with the 49ers and three more with America’s Team.

Details about the Lombardi Trophy
It’s been said that the Lombardi Trophy takes a total of four months to construct, with up to 72 hours of labor put into the work, costing a total of $50,000 when all is said and done. Yet, the actual value of the trophy is just $10,000.
Meaning when Tom Brady decided to throw the Super Bowl LV trophy from one boat to another during the Buccaneers’ Super Bowl parade after the 2021 season, even if it had landed at the bottom of the bay, it wouldn’t have been the end of the world.
Even though the trophy seems like it would weigh a hefty amount, it is constructed of sterling silver, which isn’t that dense. In all, the Lombardi weighs 107.3 ounces or roughly seven pounds. It has some weight, but not enough to deter anyone from trying to throw it like a football, or at least not Brady.
