VIDEO: Relive Bart Starr's Classic Drive to Win the Ice Bowl Against the Cowboys
By Parker White
The NFL world lost a legend on Sunday when former Green Bay Packers quarterback Bart Starr passed away at the age of 85. While he was MVP of the first two Super Bowls, Starr's fame may have never been greater than in 1967, when his Packers faced off against the Dallas Cowboys in the NFL Championship Game that would come to be known as the as the Ice Bowl. In honor of Starr's incredible life, there's no better time to relive his classic 68-yard drive to win the game, braving temperatures that reached 20 below zero:
Starr kept making play after play, but none bigger than his quarterback sneak to win the game, arguably the greatest and most iconic play in Packers franchise history.
RIP to a legend of the sport of football Bart Starr.

One of the greatest quarterbacks to ever live. Still to this day has the highest postseason QB rating of all time.

Starr finished that game 14-of-24 for 191 yards (which was a lot back then) and 2 touchdowns-- and we'll never forget about his one-yard rushing touchdown. Moments like these ensure that the Green Bay legend will truly live forever.
