1967 Colts 42 - 1970 Lions 35




The 70 Lions Cinderella run came to an end. They almost did it. They took a 7 point lead in the 3rd, and forced a stop - and Greg Landry threw a pick six, one of his three interceptions in the game. For most of the game he was excellent, passing for a pair of TD, and scoring two on the ground on long scrambles, but on three occasions he killed the Lions with ill timed picks.

As for the Colts, Johnny U. was his usual stellar self, and he avoided the murderous Detroit interception rate all game long. He got just enough running to keep the offense moving, and so the Colts move on.
