The AFC (American Football Conference) is one of the two conferences that make up the National Football League (NFL), the premier professional American football league in the United States. Established in 1970 when the NFL merged with the American Football League (AFL), the AFC is composed of 16 teams divided into four divisions: North, South, East, and West.
Teams in the AFC include some of the most storied franchises in NFL history, such as the Kansas City Chiefs, New England Patriots, Pittsburgh Steelers, and Buffalo Bills. The conference is known for its competitive spirit, high-caliber talent, and passionate fan bases. Each season, AFC teams compete fiercely during the regular season to secure playoff berths, culminating in the AFC Championship Game, where the conference champion earns a spot in the Super Bowl. The AFC has a rich history of legendary players, memorable games, and significant contributions to the sport of American football.
