Hey there! This section is kinda like a quick recap of the 1996 NFL season, similar to what you might find in my Formula One guides. Think of it as a little bonus info if you're curious about the real-world stuff that inspired Madden NFL 24. For the nitty-gritty details, you'll want to check out places like NFL.com or Wikipedia, but here's a quick rundown:

Remember the Cleveland Browns? Well, they packed their bags and moved to Baltimore, becoming the Ravens. The NFL did promise Cleveland a new team later on, though, set to start in 1999. Sadly, Pete Rozelle, who was the NFL commissioner for ages (1960-1989), passed away on December 6th. On the field, it was a big year for the expansion teams – both the Jaguars and Panthers made it all the way to their conference championships! The Jaguars even pulled off a massive upset, beating the Broncos 30-27 in the playoffs. And get this: Brett Favre led the Green Bay Packers to victory in Super Bowl XXXI against the New England Patriots, giving the Packers their first Super Bowl win in 29 years!
