Question

It’s been a weird postseason for the NBA. Two of the final four teams have never won a championship (Los Angeles Clippers, Phoenix Suns), and the other two haven’t won it recently. The Milwaukee Bucks won their only title in 1971, while the Atlanta Hawks won their only championship as the St. Louis Hawks in 1958. In this vein, when was the last time the NFL’s final four was made up entirely of teams that had never won a Super Bowl? That is, both teams in both conference championship games had never won a Super Bowl?

Answer

In the 1999 season, the Rams beat the Titans in the Super Bowl. Those teams beat the Bucs and Jaguars in the conference championships. Of those teams, only the Rams had played in a Super Bowl, and it was a loss (and while also playing in a different city).
