1966 AFL/NFL Tournament. NFL Championship Game. Season Ticket Football.
Bob Hayes scored two Touchdowns to help the Dallas Cowboys defeats the Green Bay Packers 27-7 to advance to the Big Game Championship to face the Kansas City Chiefs. Hayes caught 6 passes for 112 yards, the last of which was an electric 48 yard catch and run to put the icing on the cake in the 4th Quarter. The Green Bay running game was stymied all afternoon, totaling only 33 yards on the ground. When Lombardi switched to the passing attack late, the Dallas front 7 pinned their ears back and relentlessly pursued Bart Starr, totaling 5 sacks.
Kansas City won the AFL Championship, defeating Buffalo 21-6, with Chris Burford catching 13 passes for 134 yards in that game to pace the Chiefs offense.
