How many teams on NFL have animal names?

Answer 1

Bears, Bengals, Bills, Broncos, Cardinals, Colts, Dolphins, Eagles, Falcons, Jaguars, Lions, Panthers, Rams, Ravens, and Seahawks. Questionable: Bills. Why are the Buffalo Bills questionable? Debate: Buffalo should be regarded as Bison, but how catchy is Bison Bill Cody? Buffalo Bill Cody was among the first cowboys to shoot Buffalo. Since it would not make sense for Buffalo, NY to have a football team named the "Buffalo Bison", it only makes sense that they have the name "Buffalo Bills". Besides Bill is a man's name and man is considered the greatest animal of all!! ;-) Remember a Bronco is an untamed horse.
