 The National Football Conference or NFC has existed since 1970 and features
arguably the two most popular and storied American Football franchises, the
Dallas Cowboys ("America's Team") and the Green Bay Packers. In terms of total
NFL titles (including AFL, NFL, and Super Bowl wins) the three top teams are all
from the NFC. The Packers have 12, the Chicago Bears have 9, and the New York
Giants have 7. The Dallas Cowboys only have 5 wins, but have emerged as regular
football betting favorites in the past few decades.
NFL betting includes the opportunity to wager on which team will win the NFC,
and go on to represent the conference in the Super Bowl. NFC Conference odds are
available at all online sportsbooks. In recent seasons (2004-2009) the NFC has
failed to impress in the big game, losing 5 of the last 6 to AFC rivals. Prior
to that between 1985 and
1997 the NFC representative won the Super Bowl 13 straight times, an amazing
statistic that is unlikely to be repeated in the new age of National Football
League parity, which makes NFL betting so exciting and tough to predict.
The winner of the NFC Championship game is awarded the George Halas Trophy,
named after the iconic leader of the Chicago Bears who lived to be 88 and was
nicknamed Papa Bear. The two teams currently suffering through the longest
drought of not appearing in this Championship game are the Detroit Lions and the
Washington Redskins, who ironically met one another in 1991 and then have not
been back since. The Lions set an infamous record for NFL futility in the
2007/08 season when they somehow managed to go 0-16 and lose every single game
they played in during the regular season.
