The 1967 NFL Championship Game between the Dallas Cowboys and the Green Bay Packers, played on December 31 at Lambeau Field, is known as the Ice Bowl, arguably one of the greatest games in NFL history.

The game was played in brutal cold and windy conditions. The kickoff temperature in Green Bay was -13°F, with a wind chill of 36 below zero. Temperatures were so cold, in fact, that referees had to shout signals so that the metal whistles wouldn't stick to their lips. Even so, nearly 51,000 fans watched the coldest game in league annals.

Several players were treated for frostbite and a fan in the stands died of exposure to the cold.

Bart Starr, the Green Bay Packers Hall of Fame quarterback, scored the game-winning touchdown with 13 seconds remaining, clinching a third straight NFL Championship for the Packers.

Very true. People do not understand things come with a cost. And, establishments like McDonald's are becoming more and more automated. Because of the cost of labor.

Remember that Super Bowl. In highschool, part-time job on a horse farm.

Before the game, walked to the horse farm a quarter mile away in -30F, -60F wind-chill. Gave the horses extra oats, wheel borrowed more litter for insulation. Hay? No problem.

Not one race horse (over a dozen) suffered during that cold spell.

Rain and fog but no snow

So the Bears went from #1 seed to #7 seed in the NFC after the week 14 of the NFL.
9ers on a bye week went from #7 to #6 due to superior NFC record of 8-2.

I think it's over for the Chiefs Ravens and Bengals. But stranger things have happened.

Steelers win and are now the #4 seed in the AFC. Rodgers had his best game of the season IMO.

Rams offence is a juggernaut followed by the lions .

Bears put up one hell of a fight Johnson's first year has been amazing however Caleb lost them that game. There were a couple of times he should have run instead of throwing it and one of them was the final play. All Bears have to do is win out and can still have the #1 seed in NFC they will play the Packers again at Soldier Field... if Rams drop a game on their remaining schedule.

Chiefs will be back next year and the Bengals are a beast with Burrows too bad it was little too late. Tonight's game is a tossup. Eagles all world DT Jalen Carter is not playing meaning if the Eagles defense gives Chargers QB Herbert 2 seconds behind the line Herbert will torch them. Chargers and Bills are pretty much the same team their only talent is their QB's and if both have a little time to throw they pretty much win. As a Charger hater I can recognize that if Herbert had his two all pro Tackles (offensive linemen) they would likely have just one loss or two on their record.
