With fans wearing cheeseheads in a pigskin palace, the Green Bay Packers won their fourth Super Bowl by defeating the Pittsburgh Steelers, 31-25, at Cowboys Stadium. It was the first title for Titletown since the 1996 season, when Favre won his lone Vince Lombardi Trophy, named for the Packers’ legendary coach. The Packers, the league’s only community-owned franchise, also won nine N.F.L. championships before the Super Bowl era, and their 13 titles make them the most decorated team in league history.
