Reykjavik Einherjar Icelandic American Football Season 2016-17 [Ref: 1-2]

Report

Iceland’s sole American Football team, Reykjavik Einherjar, played two games over 2016-17, losing narrowly by one point to Eidsvoll 1814s, one of Norway’s top teams, and then defeating German Division 5 side Starnberg Argonauts 48-14. Quarterback Bergbor Phillip Palsson was the driving force behind the team.

To top off a great year for Iceland’s only American Football Team, the Reykjavik einherjar, the NFL’s Minnesota Vikings paid them a visit. The Icelandic team finished the 2017-18 season with a 2-2 record, losing to England’s Ouse Valley Eagles and Austria’s Carinthian Lions, but defeating Spanish Division 1 side Mallorca Voltors and Swedish Semi-Finalists Uppsala 86ers.

Rejkjavik Einherjar, Iceland’s only American Football Team, just got better and better in their third season, 2018-19. After destroying Germany’s Cologne Falcons 50-0, and then triumphing confortably, 56-22 over Sweden’s Tryeso Royal Crowns, they faced their stiffest test yet, when they travelled to New York to take on Semi-Pro side Empire State Wolfpack, losing 36-7. They then finished the season with a 28-42 loss to Finland’s Runners-Up, Kuopio Steelers.

Note: + No Official Standings kept in 1920. * Chicago Bears won Playoff against Portsmouth Spartans 9-0 after both teams finished tied at the top with 6 wins and 1 loss.

Note 2: Chicago Staleys are considered the same team as the Chicago Bears by the NFL. The Bears owner bought out the Decatur Staleys franchise in 1921 and moved them to Chicago, but the owner of the Staleys paid the new owner to keep the name Staleys for one year, after which they became the Chicago Bears.

Note 3: Ties were discounted in calculating W-L Winning Percentages at the time.

Report

The American Professional Football association was formed in late 1919 by the leading teams in the Ohio League (then the most pre-eminent Pro Football League in the USA) in order to provide a common set of rules and prevent players jumping from team to team in search of the biggest pay packet. The four original franchises (Canton Bulldogs, Akro Pros, Rock Island Independents and Dayton Triangles) invited the top teams from the New York Pro Football Circuit (Buffalo, Rochester, Syracuse), Pennsylvania and New York City / New Jersey Circuits to join them in forming the first true National Football League.

The League changed its name to the National Football League from APFA in 1922, and in 1932 after the League finished in a tie the first Championship Game was arranged after the season ended. Chicago Bears defeated the Portsmouth Spartans 9-0 to win the Championship. After this the decision was made to split the League into two divisions (Eastern and Western) with a pre-arranged Championship Game between the Division Winners.

The Champions of the APFA / NFL during these years were Akron Pros (1920), Chicago Staleys (1921), Canton Bulldogs (1922, 1923), Cleveland Bulldogs (1924), Chicago Cardinals (1925), Frankford Yellow Jackets (Philadelphia suburb) (1926), New York Giants (1927), Providence Steam Roller (1928), Green Bay Packers (1929-1931) and Chicago Bears (1932).

Note 2: Brooklyn Dodgers left the League to join the AAFC in 1945 and in 1946 the AAFC merged with the NFL, although in reality what happened was the NFL took over its three most successful franchises: Baltimore Colts, Cleveland Browns and San Francisco 49ers. The Brooklyn franchise was replaced by other New York teams, which changed year on year, most called New York Yanks. Dallas Cowboys and Minnesota Vikings were expansion franchises in 1960 and 1961 respectively.

National Football League Championship Games 1933-1966 [Ref: 1]

Report

The National Football League played its first Championship Game in 1933, the first year the League was divided in to Eastern and Western Divisions. In 1960 the American Football League, one of many to use that name, became so successful, it forced a merger with the NFl, with the two League playing the first Super Bowl between their respective Champions in January 1967 (1966 season). These Leagues merged in 1970 to form the AFC and NFC (Conferences within the NFL) which continue to play the Super Bowl between them.

The most successful teams during the NFL Championship Era (1933 to 1966) were the Green Bay Packers and Chicago Bears with six wins each, followed by the Detroit Lions and Cleveland Browns with four and Philadelphia Eagles and New York Giants with three.
