NGT: The Packers' "Gory Years"

[kartanoman]

Here's an informative site put together that chronicles the period in Packer history that followed Lombardi and preceded Holmgren ... known as the Packers "Gory Years"

Giants fans can certainly empathize with what the pack went through during that period.

Peace!

Thanks for the great article!

I always wondered what would have happened that October 22 1974 if Green Bay had gotten Craig Morton and the NYG's went after Archie Manning like reported in the NY Times?

I am amazed the opening game of 1971  a NYG's 42-40 win in a thunderstorm/rain throughout the game is not part of the article. HC Dan Devine suffered a broken leg in a pile up! Talk about the worst omen to start your career.  A devasting loss to longtime rival + compound fractured leg.
