Packers Backfield Uncertain Ahead of Dallas Clash
Green Bay coach Vince Lombardi signaled backfield issues may be lighter or heavier than feared. Halfback Danny Anderson remained the likely starter for the title game with Dallas while fullback Jim Grabowski’s status was uncertain due to knee problems and Ben Wilson could play if healthy. Lombardi noted Wilson’s limp could sideline him, and Grabowski, though running well, might re injure his knee, leaving Chuck Mercein to carry the load if needed. Hayes and Hayes’ matchup with Packers defense also loomed as a key factor in the anticipated third straight title push.
