    Question: did teams earn points for both NFL championships AND Super Bowl championships after the merger?
    No. Since the merger, the Super Bowl is the NFL Championship.

      Since you listed both for every team, I wasn't sure.

        It was a fair question given how the summaries were broken down. I chose to show both Super Bowl and NFL Championships given some of the original teams tremendous histories prior to the merger.

            What's the life expectancy on the NFL, 40 years? Parents don't want their kids playing it the CTE issue, and former star players keep coming out talking about how their bodies are broken to the point of great agony. Can it last long enough to even payoff the stadiums that have been recently built?

              Proof that Kaepernick is likely to never get a job again in the NFL: Cutler expected to sign a 1 year, 10M deal with the Fish in light of Tannehill injury.

              Teams are willing to sign (retired) Pick6 Cutler before CK.

                I agree hes been blackballed. But he wasn't that good the last time he played consistently.

                  Probably not. A lot of career records have been set for all-time since the next step is guys playing for that one contract then quitting at 29 with most of their health around.

                      He was playing pretty well at the end of last season when he was finally healthy, even with the garbage that surrounded him on that team. There's a handful of teams he would be an upgrade at starter for. As a Broncos fan I'd gladly give up both steaming piles of poop we have for him.

                          I honestly don't know how I avoided being a Jets fan. It would have served me right.
