Re: 1960/1963 Colts vs. Niners

Interesting. That 1960 Colts-49ers footage looks like it's from a kinescope. Do any hardcore collectors know if the rest of that game is out there? If so, I believe that would make it the earliest NFL telecast that survives.

Six TD passes in first half

Aaron Rodgers last night became the second quarterback in league history to accomplish this. Daryle Lamonica was the first, against Buffalo on 10/19/69.

Re: Have we hit rock bottom with NFL uniforms?

I don't think we will have hit rock bottom until Nike finds a way to screw up the Packer uniforms. And, believe me, Nike can do it if given the chance. They were almost spared the trouble. Early in his tenure, Ron Wolf toyed with the idea of changing the yellow in Green Bay's uniforms to gold. Fort...

Re: home dominance

The Packers have won 23 in a row at home (including one playoff game) against the Lions.

Until last year when they broke the string, the Lions had lost 21 in a row at Washington.

Re: Henry Jordan - 1967 Western Playoff vs LA Rams

Accounts of the era say four, while more recent sources such as ProFootballReference say he had 3.5, splitting one with Ron Kostelnik. I think the defense as a unit had five.

Re: '68 Packers expectations

I've seen footage of Grabowski writhing in pain inside the Ice Bowl sideline tent...I assume he tried to warm up before the game, slipped on the ice, and reinjured his knee. Does anyone have the story behind this? Did the Packers actually try to have Grabowski play in the Ice Bowl? He did hurt hims...

Re: '68 Packers expectations

Horn hurt his knee during pregame warmups before the Packers' 1970 Thanksgiving game at Dallas. That was almost beside the point, though, because he had already said he would play out his option in Green Bay that season. Lombardi (Horn has claimed) had wanted to bring him to Washington and that neve...
