History

Historical Context

The NFL merged with the AFL in 1970, creating a unified league that realigned into two conferences: the American Football Conference (AFC) and the National Football Conference (NFC). This merger established the Super Bowl, first held on January 17, 1971, and significantly boosted fan engagement. Teams like the Pittsburgh Steelers and Baltimore Ravens continue to evolve within this competitive framework, impacting coaching strategies and team dynamics.
