Buffalo Bills
The Bills have been among the favorites to win a Super Bowl for a few years, but they have yet to live up to expectations. The team that will face the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday has made the playoffs 20 times since the merger of the AFC and NFC in 1970. However, fans of the Buffalo club have had their hearts broken four times in a row during the The final game of a campaign, since their team lost the Super Bowl clashes between 1990 and 1993.

Detroit Lions
After many years of misery, the Lions finally have a competitive roster. They will host the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday. If they win, they will play in the National final for the first time since 1991 and only the second time in their history. Detroit has never even appeared in a Super Bowl game.

Texans de Houston
The surprising Texans have made the playoffs seven times since their inception in 2002. They have never made it past the second round. The Houston team will try to remedy this situation by beating the Baltimore Ravens on Saturday afternoon.

Arizona Cardinals
Founded in 1898, the Cardinals are the oldest team in the NFL. The team has only participated in the post-season nine times since the creation of the Vince Lombardi Trophy. The “Cards” played in Super Bowl XLIII (2008), but lost 27 to 23 against the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Falcons d’Atlanta
The Georgia club has twice participated in the final match of a campaign. The Falcons missed Super Bowl XXXIII (1998) against the Denver Broncos and Super Bowl LI (2016) against the New England Patriots. The second loss was historic, as Atlanta held a 28-3 lead in the third quarter. The “Pats” ultimately won 34-28 in overtime, representing the greatest comeback in Super Bowl history.

Vikings you Minnesota
The Vikings’ last championship was in 1969, a year before the merger. They defeated the Browns in the grand finale of the NFC, before losing to the Chiefs in Super Bowl IV. The Minnesota team subsequently played three other times (1973, 1974 and 1976) for the Vince Lombardi Trophy without knowing the joy of victory.

Titans du Tennessee
Whether it was the Houston Oilers or the Tennessee Titans, this franchise has never won major honors. The team has played in only one Super Bowl, in 1999 against the Rams. This was the first year the organization became the Titans.
