1 The NFL was originally named the American Professional Football Association (APFA) from 1920-1922.
2 The Cardinals were named the 1925 NFL Champions as a result of the league's controversial ruling concerning the Pottsville Maroons.
3 Due to a strike-shortened season in 1982, all teams were ranked by conference instead of division.
