Interesting find with an even more interesting chance of happening and on any given Sunday against all odds ends up happening on Superbowl Sunday...wow! 
Before this year, 23 of the 59 superbowls had one team that lost its first game. 11 won the superbowl (4 AFC, 7 NFC), and 12 lost (6 AFC, 6 NFC).
Based on this apparent randomness, it seems the chance of any given superbowl team having lost its first game is around 19%. This means you would expect both teams to have lost in roughly 4% of the games: that is, twice.
Assuming the randomness is correct, there is about a 10% chance that we would have never seen a double-first-week-loser superbowl in the first 59. So a thing with a 10% chance of happening, happened.
