Minnesota Twins
The team was founded in Washington , D.C. in 1901 as one of the eight original teams of the American League , named the Washington Senators or Washington Nationals . Although the Washington team endured long bouts of mediocrity ( immortalized in the 1955 Broadway musical Damn Yankees ) , they had a period of prolonged success in the 1920s and 1930s , led by Baseball Hall of Fame members Bucky Harris , Goose Goslin , Sam Rice , Heinie Manush , Joe Cronin , and Walter Johnson . Manager Clark Griffith joined the team in 1912 and became the team 's owner in 1920 . The franchise remained under Griffith family ownership until 1984 .
New England Patriots
The closest geographically has been the rivalry with the New York Jets . The Patriots and Jets have been in the same division ( what is now the AFC East ) since both teams ' foundings in 1960 , and have played each other at least twice a year since then . The rivalry between the Jets and Patriots has escalated since 1996 , when Patriots head coach Bill Parcells left the Patriots under controversy to become the head coach of the Jets ; he was replaced by former Jets coach Pete Carroll . Four years later Carroll was fired , and Parcells 's assistant , Bill Belichick , resigned the day he was named the Jets ' head coach to become the head coach of the Patriots . Six years after that , Eric Mangini , an assistant under Belichick , became the head coach of the Jets .
New England Patriots
An original member of the American Football League ( AFL ) , the Patriots joined the NFL in the 1970 merger of the two leagues . The team changed its name from the original Boston Patriots after relocating to Foxborough in 1971 . The Patriots played their home games at Foxboro Stadium from 1971 to 2001 , then moved to Gillette Stadium at the start of the 2002 season . The Patriots ' rivalry with the New York Jets is considered one of the most bitter rivalries in the NFL .
Northwestern Wildcats football
The 1924 team , led by center Tim Lowry and triple threat halfback Ralph Baker , was very competitive and finished with a 4 -- 4 record . In fact , the team 's performance against Chicago earned NU the nickname `` Wildcats '' after Chicago Sun - Times writer Wallace Abbey wrote that Chicago was stopped by a `` wall of Purple Wildcats . '' In 1925 , Northwestern pulled off a huge upset against Michigan , winning 3 - 2 at Soldier Field . The three points were the only points scored against the Wolverines who posted shut out wins in every other game that season . The following season , the Wildcats celebrated their inaugural season at Dyche Stadium by sharing the 1926 Western Conference Title with Michigan .

Chicago Bears logos, uniforms, and mascots
During the 1994 season , the Bears -- with most of the other NFL franchises -- introduced throwback uniforms to be worn in the honor of the NFL 's 75th Anniversary . These jerseys , with brown and blue stripes , resemble the original uniforms worn by the team in the 1920s , which came along with brown pants , as well as blank blue helmets . On October 7 , 2002 the Bears wore navy blue pants with their navy blue home jerseys for the first time , and lost at home to Green Bay before a national Monday Night Football audience . The Bears then wore the all - blue combination again until the 2006 regular season finale against the Packers , also a loss , on December 31 . The Bears donned their all - blue uniforms again against the Packers on October 20 , 2016 en route to a 26 -- 10 loss .
Seattle Seahawks
Starting in the 1998 season , Blitz has been the Seahawks ' official mascot . In the 2003 and 2004 seasons , a hawk named Faith would fly around the stadium just before the team came out of the tunnel . However , because of her relative small size and an inability to be trained to lead the team out of a tunnel , Faith was replaced by an augur hawk named Taima before the start of the 2005 season . Taima started leading the team out of the tunnel in September 2006 . Beginning in 2004 , the Seahawks introduced their drum line , the Blue Thunder . The group plays at every home game as well as over 100 events in the Seattle community .

Chicago Bears logos, uniforms, and mascots
For decades , the team was known as the only NFL team to wear jersey numbers that were not the traditional block - style numbers . Although a handful of other NFL teams such as the early - 1960s Pittsburgh Steelers , and the Houston Oilers during their early AFL days experimented with rounder jersey numbers , by the mid-1960s the Bears were the only team left to continue wearing rounded jersey numbers , though on a few occasions in 1971 and 1972 the team appeared in jerseys with plain block numerals . Since the mid-1990s , however , several teams have shifted away from the block numbers in favor of numbers that match a specific team font ( e.g. Denver Broncos , Baltimore Ravens , Philadelphia Eagles , etc . ) or in the case of the Pittsburgh Steelers , match the jersey number font with the helmet numbers while otherwise leaving the jersey design alone .
Carolina Panthers
The team hired Ron Rivera to replace Fox as head coach and drafted Auburn 's Heisman Trophy - winning quarterback Cam Newton with the first overall pick in the 2011 NFL Draft . The Panthers opened the 2011 season 2 -- 6 , but finished with a 6 -- 10 record , and Newton was awarded the AP Offensive Rookie of the Year award after setting the NFL record for most rushing touchdowns from a quarterback ( 14 ) in a single season and becoming the first rookie NFL quarterback to throw for over 4,000 yards in a single season . He also was the first rookie quarterback to rush for over 500 yards in a single season . In 2012 , the Panthers again opened the season poorly , losing five out of their first six games , leading longtime general manager Marty Hurney to be fired in response . The team slid to a 2 -- 8 record before winning five of their last six games , resulting in a 7 -- 9 record . This strong finish helped save Rivera 's job . The Panthers had a winning season the following year , finishing with a 12 -- 4 record and winning their third NFC South title and another playoff bye , but they were beaten by the 49ers in the Divisional Round . In 2014 , the Panthers opened the season with two wins , but after 12 games sat at 3 -- 8 -- 1 due in part to a seven - game winless streak . A four - game winning streak to end the season secured the team their second consecutive NFC South championship and playoff berth , despite a losing record of 7 -- 8 -- 1 . The Panthers defeated the Arizona Cardinals , 27 -- 16 , in the wild card round to advance to the divisional playoffs , where they lost to eventual NFC champion Seattle , 31 -- 17 . The 2015 season saw the Panthers start the season 14 -- 0 and finish the season 15 -- 1 , which tied for the best regular - season record in NFC history . The Panthers also secured their third consecutive NFC South championship , as well as their first overall top - seeded playoff berth . In the 2015 -- 16 playoffs , the Panthers defeated the Seattle Seahawks in the NFC Divisional playoffs , 31 -- 24 , after shutting them out in the first half , 31 -- 0 , and the Arizona Cardinals , 49 -- 15 ( highest score in NFC Championship history ) , in the NFC Championship Game to advance to Super Bowl 50 , their first Super Bowl appearance since the 2003 season . The Panthers lost a defensive struggle to the AFC Champion Denver Broncos , 24 -- 10 .
