While preseason success doesn't always directly translate, a 2016 analysis showed teams winning their Preseason Week 3 game netted 23% more regular season wins, and 50% or more of playoff teams each year were Preseason Week 3 winners. However, other analyses suggest a weak correlation, with winning all preseason games not being a strong predictor of regular season success. Historically, 30 out of 38 Super Bowl champions (78.9%) had a preseason winning percentage of .500 or higher.
