Prior to 1946, there had not been a team in the region since the Miami Seahawks, who played in the All-America Football Conference in 1946, before becoming the first incarnation of the Baltimore Colts.
They are the only team to win the Super Bowl with a perfect record in the 1972 season and winning Super Bowl VII.
