Best Answer

There were 14 teams in the NFL's inaugural season in 1920. Of those, only two remain: the Bears and Cardinals. The Cardinals are older, having been founded in Chicago in 1898. The Bears began in 1920 as the Decatur (IL) Staleys.

The Packers were organized in 1919 and joined the NFL in 1921.

Arizona Cardinals, 1898

Actually, they weren't the Arizona Cardinals in 1898, they were the Morgan Street Normals, the team of the Morgan Street (Chicago) Athletic Club. But they went on to be known as the Morgan Street Cardinals, the Racine Cardinals, the Chicago Cardinals, the St. Louis Cardinals, the Phoenix Cardinals, and, indeed, today's Arizona Cardinals.
