While you are working on those last few questions, here are some additional interesting tidbits about the NFL Final 4 QBs:
# Caleb Hanie....yes, that Caleb Hanie was the primary QB for the Bears in their Final Four appearance in 2010.
# Speaking of ex Browns QBs, Jake Delhomme twice started for the Panthers in "Final 4" games....and Vinny Testaverde started one for the Jets, Trent Dilfer for the Ravens.
# The QBs that started for the Browns in Final 4 games are Bill Nelsen in 68/69 and Bernie Kosar in 86/87/89.
# As far as I can tell, the only person to both start a Final 4 game as a QB and to be the HC of a Final 4 team is Jim Harbaugh. (started 1995 as Colts QB)
# Jack Kemp is the only Final 4 starting QB that went on to run for President of these United States.
# While Terry Bradshaw was the starting QB for the Steelers in the 1972 "Final 4 game" that they lost to the Dolphins, Terry Hanratty actually threw as many passes and for more yards in that game than Bradshaw did.
# Favorite whipping boy Kordell Stewart actually started 2 Final 4 games for the Steelers.
# Some other non-descript names of Final 4 QB starters include: Bob Lee, Michael Rae, Gary Hogeboom, Steve Fuller, Dieter Brock, Shawn King, Mark Malone, Jim Zorn Eric Kramer....not your household names.

This goes back to 1966....not just to 1970 when the AFC/NFC title games were initiated. Some answers can be different when taking this into account. Give a try:
Friday Afternoon. Final Answers:
1. Which current NFC team has appeared in the most NFL "Final Fours"?
The Dallas Cowboys with 16. Note: however this will be the 49ers 15th appearance in the NFC title game.....and the Cowboys have only appeared in 14 of those....but the Cowboys were in those 2 "NFL Title Games" in 1966 and 1967 in which they lost to the Packers in the games that were preludes to the first 2 SBs (but technically those are not counted as NFC games)
2. Which current AFC team has appeared in the most NFL "Final Fours"?
The Steelers 15 games. Second in AFC is The Raiders with 11.
3. Which teams have appeared in both AFL/AFC and NFL/NFC title games?
The Browns and the Colts both appeared in the NFL title games in that 4 years 1966-1969 pre merger era....and they each have appeared in AFC title games. Recall the Browns lost to the Colts in the 1968 NFL title game.
The Seahawks were originally in the AFC....and appeared in an AFC title game vs. the Dolphins back in the early 80s. But then they were switched to the NFC....and have now appeared in at least a couple of NFC title games.
4. Which team has appeared in the most consecutive NFL "Final Four" games?
The Oakland Raiders in the mid 70s: Five times from 1973-1977. No other team has appeared in 5 consecutive league/conference title games other than the Cleveland Browns who were in 10 straight (6 if you count just NFL.)
5. Which teams have lost the most NFL "Final Four" games?
The 49ers and the Cowboys have each lost 8 "Final Four" games. Not sure why this question seemed so tricky.
IF the 49ers lose Sunday, they will break the tie for the most "Final 4" losses and will stand alone with 9 such losses. (But if they win, they will not tie for the most Final 4 wins....however, if the Pats win they WILL tie for the most Final 4 wins)
In the AFC the Steelers and Raiders are tied with most losses with 7 each.
6. Which team has the best winning percentage in "Final Four" games....minimum of at least 3 appearances?
The New York Giants are 5-0 in NFC title games. a perfect 1.000
(Bengals are also undefeated, but have only 2 wins)
7. Which team has the worst winning percentage in "Final Four" games....minimum of at least 3 appearances?
The Cleveland Browns are a "perfect"? 0-5 in these games losing in 68/69/86/87/89
Only other 0 fers are the Jags and Lions, but they have only been in one game each.
8. Which AFC team has the most Road Wins in "Final Four" games?
The New England Patriots are 3-1 on the road in AFC title games. A harbinger?

Note: For the following discussion, I am going to make a presumption that the following QBs are going to be pretty sure fire HOF QBs:
Brett Favre
Kurt Warner
Peyton Manning
Tom Brady
Ben Roethlisberger
Aaron Rodgers
Drew Brees
So, in the history of the NFL Final 4, 1966 to date ONLY the following season were played where a Hall of Fame QB or one of the above sure fire future HOF QBs did NOT participate:
1982 The QBs were Joe Theisman, Gary Hogeboom, David Woodley, and Richard Todd
2000 The QBs were Kerry Collins, Daunte Culpepper, Trent Dilfer, and Rich Gannon
2002 The QBs were Brad Johnson, Rich Gannon, Steve McNair, and Donovan McNabb (and note: McNair/McNabb are outside shots for HOF)
And that is it.

Other notables and the times they appeared in the NFLs Final Four:
Flacco: 3 times already
Roethlisberger: 4 times
Eli: just 2 times (and won SB both times)
Rodgers: only 1 time so far
Kaepernick: now 2 times
Marino: 3 times. He was in his first 2 years in the league and only went back 1 more time ever.
Brunell: 2 times
O'Donnell: 2 times
QBs that made the Final Four with more than one team were:
Kurt Warner...with Rams/Cards
Kerry Collins...with Panthers and Giants
Brett Favre...with Packers and Vikings
Joe Montana...with 49ers and Chiefs
Jay Schroeder...with the Redskins and the Raiders
Doug Williams....with Buccaneers and Redskins
Ron Jawoski....with the Rams and the Eagles
Earl Morral...with the Colts and the Dolphins
Craig Morton...with the Cowboys and Broncos
And now: Peyton Manning with the Colts and the Broncos
(note: Bernie Kosar started 3 games for Browns and though he didn't start a game, he finished a game for the Cowboys after injury to Aikman)
