Nothing Bowl Triumph Gives Colts 20 14 Win Over Eagles
In a sunlit Playoff Bowl crowd of 58,000, the Baltimore Colts beat the Philadelphia Eagles 20 14. A late interception by Jerry Logan set up Tom Matte’s one yard score and Lou Michaels added a pair of extra points to seal the victory. Johnny Unitas threw his 233rd touchdown pass to Raymond Berry and completed 19 passes, but the game remained defense heavy and unglamorous as the teams played for retirement fund proceeds rather than a title.
