The Green Bay Packers hold the longest consecutive NFL title streak with three consecutive crowns, which they accomplished on two separate occasions: once in the 1920s, before postseason games were introduced, and once in the 1960s, which included winning seven playoff games and the first two Super Bowls.
The New England Patriots hold the record for most consecutive playoff games won, with ten postseason wins in a row from 2001–2005 including three Super Bowl wins. The Patriots also hold the longest playoff appearance streak, with 11 consecutive appearances from 2009 to 2019. The second-longest such streak is the Kansas City Chiefs' streak of 10 consecutive appearances from 2015 to 2024.
