Here is Trivia about the AFC and NFC title games about to come up. The AFC and NFC Championship games have been contested since the 1970 merger. Most questions deal with things from that time. A few will go back to the previous 4 years to 1966 when the Super Bowl began. I will note if the question asks for that period:
