History

Historical Context

The NFL and AFL merged in 1970, creating a unified league with 26 teams divided into two conferences: the AFC and NFC. This merger not only expanded the fan base but also established a competitive balance, leading to innovations like the Super Bowl. The Jacksonville Jaguars, formed in 1995, exemplify the league's growth, as they aim to build on their recent AFC South success with 11 draft picks.
