Here's where the Chicago Bears stand on the list of teams with the longest Super Bowl droughts.
As the Kansas City Chiefs bask in the glory of their second consecutive Super Bowl triumphs, Chicago Bears fans can't help but ponder when their own turn for championship glory will arrive.
It's been 38 years since the Bears celebrated their last Super Bowl victory, achieved in New Orleans after defeating the New England Patriots in the 1986 Super Bowl.
Despite the prolonged wait for another title, the Bears aren't among the top 10 teams with the longest Super Bowl droughts.
Surprisingly, eight teams�representing a quarter of the league�have never won a Super Bowl in their entire 58-year existence. This list includes the Detroit Lions and Cleveland Browns, neither of whom has ever appeared in a Super Bowl.
Additionally, the Arizona Cardinals, Buffalo Bills, Tennessee Titans, Los Angeles Chargers, Minnesota Vikings, and Atlanta Falcons have all fallen short of Super Bowl victory despite their opportunities.
The Cincinnati Bengals, established 56 years ago, also remain without a Super Bowl win.
Among teams that have previously won the Super Bowl, the Bears hold the fourth-longest drought. It's been 55 years since the New York Jets claimed victory in the third Super Bowl, while the Miami Dolphins recently marked 50 years without a championship. Remarkably, the Dolphins have not won a playoff game in the past 23 seasons.
Furthermore, the Las Vegas Raiders have endured a 40-year drought without a championship, placing the Bears 13th on the list of longest droughts in the sport.
Moreover, the Bears hold the 14th-longest drought without an appearance in the Super Bowl, last making it in 2006 when they lost to the Indianapolis Colts.
