The Chiefs have the best all-time record of any former AFL team.
As we get toward the top of this list, the number of successful franchises that began in the 1960's is really striking. There are eight MLB franchises that started in the 1960's. Only one of them has an all-time record above .500:
Astros: .503
Angels: .495
Brewers: .489
Mets: .484
Nationals: .482
Royals: .477
Rangers: .476
Padres: .468
The NFL has 14 franchises that started in the 1960's, and seven of them have all-time winning records. It's a tribute to the NFL that it was so successful at integrating these teams into the rest of the league.
