Part III of our “50 Years of Pro Football” publication covers what has been sometimes called “the shameful years.” This is the time between their 1944 N.F.L. championship and the beginning of the Lombardi era in 1959. These pages will introduce you to those teams and individual players that, try as they might, couldn’t match the rest of the league in talent and success.
Part IV will bring us through the “Glory Years” of the 1960’s and all the success that resurrected the franchise.
