No.
In the regular season they beat the New York Giants and the Bears just to win the wild card and make it into the playoffs. And they beat the Eagles, Falcons, Bears in the playoffs, and the Settlers in the Super Bowl.
The last Wild Card team to make the Super Bowl and lose was the 2008 Arizona Cardinals. The Cardinals were the 4th seed in the NFC playoffs. They advanced to the Super Bowl by defeating the Atlanta Falcons in the Wild Card round, the Carolina Panthers in the Divisional Round and the Philadelphia Eagles in the Conference Championship game. The Cardinals lost to the Pittsburgh Steelers 27-23 in Super Bowl XLIII.
The 1999 Falcons wound up the regular season at 5-11 and did not make the playoffs. The 1998 team made it to the Super Bowl (XXXIII) and lost to the Denver Broncos, 34-19, on January 31, 1999.
Actually, the Atlanta Falcons were almost a team in the AFC. On June 7, 1965, local businessmen had made a deal with the American Football League (AFL) to make the Atlanta Falcons a member of the AFL. However, in 1966, Atlanta declared that their new football team would be joining the National Football League (NFL).
As of Super Bowl XLIII, that was the Seattle Seahawks in Super Bowl XL.

If you're just talking Super Bowls and not NFL Championships (Pre-Super Bowl) the following teams make the list: Detroit Lions, Cleveland Browns (Cleveland sort of won a Super Bowl after moving from Cleveland to Baltimore to become the Ravens), Seattle Seahawks, Carolina Panthers, Jacksonville Jaguars, Minnesota Vikings, Buffalo Bills, San Diego Chargers, New Orleans Saints, Philadelphia Eagles, Atlanta Falcons, Arizona Cardinals, Cincinnati Bengals, Houston Texans, and Tennessee Titans. The old Los Angeles Rams did not win either, but they did win as the St. Louis Rams. The only teams to NEVER appear in a Super Bowl include: Detroit, Cleveland, New Orleans, Jacksonville, and Houston. The Cleveland Browns won NFL Championships in 1950, '54, '55, and '60. The Detroit Lions won NFL Championships in 1952, '53, and '57. These were before the league adopted the "Super Bowl" as its name for the NFL title.
The Steelers were the 2008 Super Bowl Champions. They won the Super Bowl on February 1, 2009.
No. They didn't make it to the Super Bowl.
