Packers in the Lead


Here in the offseason, we’ve been a bit more erratic in our postings — not making them every day, but we’re back today with some action from the early Second Quarter in “The Ice Bowl.” In our first photo (above), we see the scoreboard after the Packers’ score on a 43-yard touchdown play to Boyd Dowler.


While the kicking team takes the field for the change of possession, we see receiver Max McGee (left) talking with quarterback Bart Starr in the “dugout” enclosure on the Packers’ sideline.


Dallas quarterback Don Meredith stands behind center Mike Connelly (#53), as Packers’ linebacker Ray Nitschke (#66) waits menacingly across the line of scrimmage anticipating the play. Meredith’s pass to Bob Hayes was incomplete, and as his next pass sails...


... it is intercepted by Green Bay defensive back Herb Adderley (#26), who returns it to the Dallas 32 yard line.


And the Green Bay fans are greatly pleased!
