...Sunday any team can beat any other. Everyone was gunning for the Packers, giving it the old college try. Finally, on Thanksgiving Day in Detroit, the gung-ho Lions took the Packers apart, pad by pad. In the first half, Detroit's massive linemen smothered Green Bay Quarterback Bart Starr for losses that totaled 79 yds.; the Lions built up a 23-0 lead and held...

The Crimson forwards tried in vain to stem the Green tide. Buzz Miller, Mike Auer, and Bart Francis were particularly effective in the back but could not stop the speedy Indians...
