1956 NFL Championship

Bears vs the Giants at Yankee Stadium for the 1956 NFL Championship! Beautiful close-up color shots of Bears coach "Paddy" Driscoll, George Blanda, Ed Brown, Harlon hill, J.C. Caroline, Bill McColl, Rick Casares, George Halas and Sid Luckman. Also shown are Giants coach Jim Lee Howell, 26-year old Frank Gifford, Roosevelt Greer, Dick Modzelewski, Emlen Tunnell, Kyle Rote and QB "Chuckin'" Charlie Conerly. Giants return the kickoff to the Bear 37, promptly score, and it's all downhill for Chicago after that, as Giants completely dominate the Bears in a lopsided game, 47-7. Rick Casares scores the only Bear TD in the second quarter on a nine-yard run. New York's Ben Agajanian kicks two FG's and five conversions in the romp!
