The three-peat is so rare in American professional sports in general, too. The last major men's professional team to win three straight championships was the Los Angeles Lakers. They won three consecutive NBA titles from 2000-02. Here’s a look at every time the NFL has come close to a Super Bowl three-peat.

The first 18 selections in the 2025 NFL Draft were set following the final week of the regular season. Now, 30 of the 32 slots are locked in after the Philadelphia Eagles dominated the Washington Commanders and the Kansas City Chiefs survived the Buffalo Bills on Championship Sunday.

The Philadelphia Eagles defeated the Washington Commanders 55-23 in the NFC Championship Game on Sunday. That means they've set a matchup against the Buffalo Bills or Kansas City Chiefs in Super Bowl LIX. It was a dominant performance on both sides of the ball for the Eagles, but especially for the defense, which forced and recovered three fumbles.
