LAMBEAU FIELD (UPI):- The NFL Championship results looked more like what we would have expected from the AFL Championship. In a strange twist of fate this game turned into a wide open event where defense took the day off. Hard to believe a windy 28 degree day would feature over 800 yards of total offense, but it did. Jim Brown in his final NFL game ran for 131 yards (on 32 carries) and had 3 TD's. The big back was BIG, but his efforts were not enough, since he only plays on the offensive side of the ball. With 2:50 left in the game the usually sure handed Bart Starr threw a pick 6 to Cleveland DB Erich Barnes and the Browns took a 34-31 lead. Starr is unflappable and when he got the ball back did not make the same mistake. Braced for a long methodical drive the Browns "bend don't break" D settled in. Starr surprised them by tossing a 63 yard strike to flanker Carol Dale who eluded some shoddy arm tackles enroute to paydirt. Cleveland got the ball back with 2 minutes to go. With time and downs running out the Browns faced a key 4th and 4 and hoped to catch the Packers sitting in pass defense. Jim Brown took the ball on a sweep to the right, but his blocking fell apart and he was tackled for a 1 yard loss. And so a great career comes to an end in a championship game on the Packer 35 yard line. Green Bay will now meet the SD Chargers of the upstart AFL in the "Super Bowl". Contributed by DistantReplay.
