Ahhh here some interesting tids about the meetings for the Conference Championships....

NFC - New York Giants vs Green Bay Packers

GB and NY has met in the playoffs so often... but do remmy, all the meetings took place before the Super Bowl was created... so here the playoff meetings:

1938 NFL Championship: NYG 23 @ GB 17
1939 NFL Championship: GB 27 @ NYG 0
1944 NFL Championship: GB 14 @ NYG 7
1961 NFL Championship: GB 37 @ NYG 0
1962 NFL Championship: GB 16 @ NYG 7
1963 NFL Championship: GB 14 @ NYG 10
2008 NFC Championship: NYG @ GB (score TBD)

AFC - San Diego Chargers vs New England Patriots

SD and NE has met only twice.. but interesting thing is both of them had started in the old American Football League and moved on to be part of the American Football Conference in 1970 after the AFL and NFL merged... here the playoff meetings:

1963 AFL Championship: SD 51 @ Boston 10 (NE used to be known as the Boston Patriots from 1960 to 1970 before they changed to New England Patriots in 1971)
2006 AFC Divisional Playoffs: NE 24 @ SD 21
2008 AFC Championship: SD @ NE (score TBD)

So all I know is the New York Giants have never ever faced San Diego or New England in the playoffs for the Super Bowl and it would be very interesting.. Green Bay has yet to face San Diego but has faced off vs New England back in 1996....
