Quick answer: 1. New England Patriots, 2. Pittsburgh Steelers, 3. Dallas Cowboys, 4. San Francisco 49ers, 5. Kansas City Chiefs, 6. New York Giants, 7. Green Bay Packers, 8. Denver Broncos, 9. Washington Commanders, 10. Las Vegas Raiders.

The Super Bowl has been played 60 times and won by 20 different franchises, but the leaderboard is top-heavy: just ten teams have three or more Lombardi Trophies. This list ranks those ten by championships won, current through Super Bowl LX (the 2025 season, played February 8, 2026), when Seattle's 29-13 win over New England gave the Seahawks their second title and left the Patriots and Steelers tied at the top with six apiece.

The ranking

New England Patriots

Tied for the most titles (six) and alone with the most Super Bowl appearances (12). All six championships came in the Brady-Belichick era between the 2001 and 2018 seasons, including Super Bowl LI's famous comeback over Atlanta. They have also lost six, most recently Super Bowl LX to Seattle.

Pittsburgh Steelers

The 1970s Steel Curtain dynasty won four titles in six seasons (IX, X, XIII, XIV), then added Super Bowls XL and XLIII. Pittsburgh's .750 Super Bowl winning percentage (6-2) is the best of any team with more than five Super Bowl appearances.

Three titles in four seasons in the 1990s (XXVII, XXVIII, XXX) on top of the 1970s championships (VI, XII) put Dallas third on the recency tiebreaker over San Francisco. No Cowboys title since the 1995 season — a drought now past 30 years.

4

San Francisco 49ers

Most recent title: Super Bowl LVIII (2023 season)Super Bowl appearances: 7Super Bowl wins: 4
6

New York Giants

Four titles in five trips, and the two most famous both came against New England — Super Bowl XLII and the XLVI rematch. Eli Manning's Giants also won XXI and XXV, and their 4-1 record matches Green Bay's for the best Super Bowl winning percentage in the top ten.

7

Green Bay Packers

How we ranked this

Franchises are ranked by Super Bowl championships won, counting Super Bowls I through LX (the 1966 through 2025 seasons). Franchise totals follow the team through relocations and renames — for example, Washington's titles as the Redskins and the Raiders' as the Oakland and Los Angeles Raiders count toward the current franchise. Ties are broken by total Super Bowl appearances (more appearances ranks higher), then by most recent championship: Dallas edges San Francisco (1995 vs. 1994 title), the Giants edge Green Bay (2011 vs. 2010), and Washington edges Las Vegas (1991 vs. 1983). Only the ten franchises with at least three titles are listed; twelve franchises have never won a Super Bowl.

FAQ

Which NFL team has won the most Super Bowls?

The New England Patriots and Pittsburgh Steelers are tied with six championships each. The Patriots have also lost six Super Bowls, the most appearances (12) of any franchise.

Has any team won three straight Super Bowls?

No. Eight franchises have won back-to-back Super Bowls, but none has ever won three in a row. The Steelers are the only team to win consecutive titles twice (1974-75 and 1978-79).

How many NFL teams have never won a Super Bowl?

Twenty of the 32 franchises have won at least one Super Bowl. Four have never appeared in one: the Browns, Lions, Jaguars, and Texans.

Does this include pre-Super Bowl NFL championships?

No. This list counts only Super Bowls (1966 season onward). Several franchises won NFL championships before the Super Bowl era, which is why all-time championship lists can look different.
