Hornung Scores
Today brings the last installment of our series on the 1961 championship game. The original caption to this photo reads: “Packers halfback Paul Hornung (#5) darts into the open, past the outstretched hand of Giants linebacker Cliff Livingston (#89) on his way to the end zone to score on a 6-yard run in the second quarter of the NFL championship game at City Stadium on Dec. 31, 1961. Wide receiver Boyd Dowler (#86) is about to put the last necessary block on Giants defensive back Joe Morrison (#40) at the goal line.
