The franchise was founded as the Boston Patriots in 1959 as a member of the new American Football League. The team's first logo, affectionately known as Pat Patriot, has become one of the most popular throwback logos in football. The NFL-AFL merger forced the team to move to Foxborough in 1971 and a name change to the New England Patriots. The Patriots had relatively modest success early on, reaching only two Super Bowls - in 1985 and 1996 - before embarking on a dynasty, winning six Super Bowls since 2002.
