Championship Sunday - 2022 Season

In the Big Game, the winner will (by coincidence) rise to NINTH position in the GOAT list for championships won with best percentage tie breaker. 

Philadelphia's NFC win is their eighth championship, with seven losses, tying them with Indianapolis for this week only. Because Kansas City won the AFC, Philly and Indy are tied for twelvth. 

After the game next week, Philly will have 16 appearances total, tying them with Chicago for number of games played. 

If they win the Big Game, they will join Chicago with nine wins and seven losses, currently in ninth place. If they lose, they will move to thirteenth place.

Kansas City will have 14 appearances by showing up at the Big Game, having won the AFC. 

Their current record is now eight wins and five losses, moving them to eleventh position in the GOAT trophy race. If they win the Big Game, they will rise to the ninth position, bumping Chicago to tenth. If they lose, they drop down to twelfth.

The Rams will be in eleventh place, no matter who wins. Las Vegas falls to 14th and Miami to 15th on the GOAT list.

San Francisco's loss for the NFC title gives them 25 total appearances, with 12 wins and thirteen losses. They are now tied with Green Bay for this stat, moving Pittsburgh, Dallas and the Giants in a three-way tie for fourth. The loss drops them out of a tie for fifth with New York, who is 12 and 12, moving them to the sixth spot in terms of wins and percentages.

Cincinnati, by showing up and losing the AFC is now tied for 21st in total appearances with Seattle, each having seven. They remain at 23rd for total trophies won (3). Tampa, Baltimore and Detroit fall to a tie for 23rd in appearances as Cinci advances.

2021 Season GOAT list

I updated my NFL GOAT table, used it to look at conference realignments to even out the number of championship victories in each division and then never posted the GOAT list (as promised).  As I prepare the list for the 2022 season (and 2023 Big Game), I would be remiss if I did not post 2021 as promised.
