Steelers and Colts?   Colts, yes....not Steelers.  Steelers never appeared in a conf. final as a member of the NFL ..only as an AFC member (during Super Bowl era) So...Colts and Browns yes....but there is another.

11. A. How many AFC title games have gone into Overtime?

At least one Miami\Chargers?  "At least one "is not an answer"  Are you guessing one...or some other number?  But FYI, no...Miami Chargers game, if one went into OT....was not a Final Four game....but a divisional round game.

B How many NFC title games have gone into Overtime?

Hint: There has been "at least one"  :lol:

Here are the highlights of the game Hoorta is thinking of: The Epic in Miami

This was a Divisional round game.    It went 14 minutes into OT.   Don Strock was QB for Dolphins.    Chargers went on to play the Bengals the next week in like -44 wind chill...and lost.

I thought maybe that this weekends games in Philly and New England could challenge some of the cold game records....but apparently not.  According to this, it is supposed to be in the 40s in both places:

Also.....the 3 coldest games in history.....The freezer  Bowl was one....and as you might expect...the other two occurred in Green Bay:
