NFC teams are the home team in odd numbered years. AFC teams are the home team in even numbered years.

The stadium is determined years in advance and has nothing to do with which teams are playing.

There is no home team in the Super Bowl. They only do a coin toss to decide who gets the ball first, or if they want to defend.

How many NFL head coaches have been fired immediately after taking a team to a Super Bowl?

None. There have been head coaches who walked away or retired after a Super Bowl appearance (Vince Lombardi of Green Bay after Super Bowl II; Bill Parcells of New England after Super Bowl XXXI; and Dick Vermeil of the St. Louis Rams after Super Bowl XXXIV). Although Dallas Cowboys head coach Jimmy Johnson parted ways with team owner Jerry Jones two months after the Cowboys won Super Bowl XXVIII, we don't know for sure whether the decision was mutual or not.

Is there a picture of the ring of the loser of the super bowl?

When a team loses a super bowl,, the rings intended for them like the Panthers are taken away and are actually destroyed. If they were going to take pictures, it would lead to scandals in the NFL, causing corruption within its exexutive board. Therefore, there are no known photos of the ring of the losing super bowl teams.


Do season ticket holders get rights to away playoff games?

No they do not because the season ticket holders of the home team gets tickets and the other seats are just for sale. In the Super Bowl the away team's season ticket holders may get right to tickets, if they purchased their teams home playoff game tickets, if they had any home games, they will be entered in a lottery. Each team in the Super Bowl gets 17.5% of the tickets. If you win the lottery for the tickets through your season tickets, you get half the seats you have for your season tickets, I believe, so if you have 4 season tickets and you win the lottery, you get 2 Super Bowl tickets.
