It\u2019s fairly difficult to put together a winning season in the NFL. It\u2019s extremely difficult to have sustained success over decades and decades. A handful of franchises have had sustained success for their entire history, winning more than 53 percent of their games going back to their founding in the 20th century. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today, we\u2019re going to look at the all-time best NFL teams to find out what team in the NFL has the best record and winning percentage. Here are the top 10 NFL Franchises with the highest winning percentages. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Despite not making a conference championship game in 30 years, the Dallas Cowboys are tied at the top in NFL all-time winning percentage, posting a .571 record of 576-432-7. Founded in 1960, the Cowboys have posted seasons of at least 10 wins in 32 seasons, including a franchise-best 13-3 in 1992, 2007 and 2016. Known for their dominance in the 20th century that included five Super Bowls in 1971<\/a>, 1977<\/a>, 1992<\/a>, 1993<\/a> and 1995<\/a>, the Cowboys are one of the most valued franchises in the NFL and of all international sports. Of their 576 all-time wins, legendary head coach Tom Landry<\/a> was at the helm for a whopping 250 between 1960 and 1988. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Green Bay Packers are one of the NFL\u2019s oldest franchises, founded in 1921. They are also one of the all-time best NFL teams, posting an impressive 819-611-39 record across over a century of football. While perhaps Green Bay\u2019s most well-known coach is Vince Lombardi<\/a>, the namesake of the Super Bowl trophy, their all-time winningest coach is Curly Lambeau<\/a>. Lambeau coached the team from their inaugural season in 1921 until 1949, winning 209 games and six NFL championships along the way. In 2026, the Packers have high expectations as the team looks to build off of three consecutive playoff appearances with quarterback Jordan Love<\/a> as he attempts to follow up Aaron Rodgers<\/a> and Brett Favre<\/a> in the continuation of Hall of Fame-caliber Packer quarterbacks. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A relatively young NFL franchise has the third-best record of all time. The Baltimore Ravens have seen tremendous success in their 30 years in existence. Since their inception in 1996, the Ravens have a record of 276-208-1 and have won two Super<\/a> Bowls<\/a>. The winningest Ravens coach of all time is recently deposed chief John Harbaugh<\/a>, who took over in 2008 and won 180 games. The franchise has won at least 10 games in 15 of their 29 seasons, including a 14-win 2019 season<\/a>, the most in Ravens history. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The New England Patriots are fourth in NFL all-time winning percentage, thanks in no small part to the dominant Tom Brady<\/a>–Bill Belichick<\/a> quarterback-coach duo. The pair won 219 games together, and no other quarterback has even won 200 games. Of all the head coaches in team history, Belichick is responsible for 266 of the Patriots\u2019 559 all-time wins. The Patriots have won six Super Bowls, all with Brady and Belichick between 2001 and 2018.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Young football fans may be shocked to see the Chicago Bears in the discussion of the highest winning percentage NFL teams, but the Bears have a long and illustrious history. Though the team has not won a Super Bowl in 40 years, the franchise has won almost 809 games since 1920, posting an all-time record of 809-652-42. For the first four decades of existence, the face of the Bears was head coach George Halas<\/a>. The Hall of Famer led the team from 1920 until 1960, winning 318 games and five NFL championships along the way. Bears fans entering the 2026 season are optimistic for the future, as the team and young QB Caleb Williams look to build off of a division title in 2025<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The only franchise to ever record an undefeated Super Bowl winning season<\/a>, the Miami Dolphins have a .550 winning percentage, with a 511-418-4 record all time. Like the Patriots\u2019 Brady and Belichick, the Dolphins had a historic QB-coach duo of their own in Dan Marino<\/a> and Don Shula<\/a>. Marino spent his entire 17-season NFL career with the Dolphins, racking up 147 wins. Shula coached the team from 1970 to 1995, delivering the franchise 257 of their 511 wins. Miami\u2019s two Super Bowl titles came back to back in 1972<\/a> and 1973<\/a>. In 2026, the Dolphins will look to secure their first AFC East title since 2008. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The San Francisco 49ers have been one of the NFC\u2019s most successful teams, not just in recent years, but over their entire history. The franchise was founded in 1946 and holds an all-time record of 642-531-16. The 49ers are the youngest NFL franchise to win at least 600 games. The team has had four seasons with at least 14 wins, including their Super Bowl-winning 1984<\/a> and 1989<\/a> seasons. Though current head coach Kyle Shanahan<\/a> has led the team to four NFC Championship Games and two Super Bowls since 2019, the Lombardi Trophy has proven elusive so far for Shanahan\u2019s crew.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With six Super Bowl titles, the Pittsburgh Steelers are one of the all-time best NFL teams. Their success has been sustained over the regular season too. Since their inception in 1933, the Steelers have 691 wins and 592 losses, giving them a .538 winning mark, good for ninth in NFL all-time winning percentage (tied with the 49ers). Part of their sustained success is their knack for finding and keeping excellent head coaches. The Steelers have had just three head coaches since 1969: Chuck Noll<\/a>, Bill Cowher<\/a> and Mike Tomlin<\/a>. All three have only been head coaches with the Steelers and have all won at least 140 games for the black and yellow. The Steelers would be fortunate if their new coach has the same success as his predecessors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
