Packers 28, Los Angeles 7
1967 Western Conf. Championship
Dec. 23 at County Stadium, Milwaukee
Travis Williams scored two touchdowns, and the Packers weathered three early turnovers, downing the Rams in the first regularly-scheduled conference playoff in NFL history.
After L.A. got on the board first with Roman Gabriel's 29-yard scoring pass to Bernie Casey, the Packers responded with 28 unanswered points, in one of Milwaukee County Stadium's more memorable games.
Williams rushed for 88 yards on 18 carries, while Bart Starr threw for 222 yards with one touchdown and set a team record by completing 73.9 percent of his passes (17 of 23). End Carroll Dale caught Starr's scoring toss, one of six catches for 109 yards. The Packers also sacked Gabriel five times, including three-and-a-half by Henry Jordan.
Green Bay's kicked off a trio of postseason wins that included the legendary Ice Bowl NFL championship eight days later, and a second straight Super Bowl victory.
LA -- Casey 29 pass from Gabriel (Gossett kick)
GB -- Williams 46 run (Chandler kick)
GB -- Dale 17 pass from Starr (Chandler kick)
GB -- Mercein 6 run (Chandler kick)
GB -- Williams 2 run (Chandler kick)
