List of NFL longest winning streaks

{{Short description|none}}

{{Use mdy dates|date=June 2024}}

This is a list of the longest winning streaks in National Football League (NFL) history. The list includes streaks that started at the end of one season and carried over into the following season. There are two lists, streaks that consist entirely of regular-season games and streaks made up of playoff games only.

The Indianapolis Colts hold the record for the longest regular season winning streak in NFL history, at 23 games. They won 9 straight games to finish the 2008 season and started the 2009 season with 14 straight wins. The New England Patriots hold the record for the longest postseason winning streak in NFL history, with 10 straight playoff wins between 2001 and 2005—although the team did miss the playoffs in 2002.
