Because you have to have 12 team in your conference to hold a conference championship game. That is the reason Colorado and Utah join the PAC 10 next year so they can conference championship game. Go Bears!
The Chicago Bears have been to the NFL playoffs 24 times. They have won their conference championship 3 times (1963, 1985, 2007). They have only won the Super Bowl once though, in 1985.
1941 Conference Championship, played at Soldier Field in Chicago. Bears won 33-14. Exactly 7 days after Pearl Harbor.
The Steelers have made two appearances in the conference championship under coach Mike Tomlin. They won both times.
There really are none. The conferences that hold championship games are those that have so many teams that they are broken into two divisions. The winner of each division will play in the championship game to crown a conference champion. Conferences that are not broken into two divisions do not have a championship game.
