How about the Giants? They have not lost a Conference Championship in the Super Bowl era. Between the 1930s to the early 1960s they lost 11 Championship games which was equivalent to losing the Super Bowl but these were games between Division winners and there weren't any Conferences

This is a good point. On this one, I was pulling from the the NFL Record & Factor book. "NFC Championship Game Composite Standings". But upon closer inspection, those include both conference championship games game (1970 to present) and earlier NFL championship games. As Dennis points out, Giants lost 11 NFL championship games before the merger, but they have won all five of their NFC title games (with a Super Bowl berth hanging in the balance). I guess in hindsight, the better trivia question would have been, "what's the only NFC team that's undefeated in conference championship games?" (Note: Seattle is 3-0 in NFC title games but lost an AFC title game against the Raiders).

I can only think of one NFL team that's never made a conference title game. The Texans.
