Green Bay, after winning its third consecutive NFL championship, won the Super Bowl title for the second straight year, defeating the AFL champion Oakland Raiders.
The NFL Packers (9-4-1) made it back to the AFL/NFL Championship Game via the legendary Ice Bowl. Bart Starr's quarterback sneak in the final seconds gave Green Bay a 21-17 victory over the Dallas Cowboys and a third straight NFL Championship. The Packers had beat the L.A. Rams in the Western Conference final.
The AFL champion Oakland Raiders under coach John Rauch were in the post season for the first time in their seven years of competition. Led by quarterback Daryle Lamonica, George Blanda, the backup quarterback and kicker, cornerback Willie Brown, and guard Gene Upshaw they defeated the Houston Oilers 40-7 in the AFL Championship.

Bart Starr again was chosen the game's most valuable player as he completed 13 of 24 passes for 202 yards and one touchdown and directed a Packers' attack that was in control all the way after building a 16-7 halftime lead. Don Chandler kicked four field goals and all-pro cornerback Herb Adderley capped the Green Bay scoring with a 60-yard interception return. The game marked the last for Vince Lombardi as Packers coach, ending nine years at Green Bay in which he won six Western Conference championships, five NFL championships, and two Super Bowls. |
