Packers all-time tournament: 1960 runs roughshod over 1967
Behind a strong run game, the 1960 Packers did something they couldn’t do in real life – win a playoff game.
Packers All-Time Tournament
The 10th-seeded ’60 Packers sprung a first-round upset, running roughshod over 1967 Green Bay, winners of Super Bowl II, 34-17.
The ’67 Packers had no answer for running back Jim Taylor, who gained 226 yards on 23 carries with a touchdown. When Taylor wasn’t running it, Paul Hornung was gaining 92 yards on 16 carries with a TD.
