And that was a time when the only elusive QB in the NFL was Fran Tarkenton. That first series was more of a test of uncertainty. The two teams never played each other. They never even had any common opponents. So it was hard to tell how good or bad the opponent was watching film of only the other league. After that start the Packers had the Chiefs figured out and by the 3rd quarter they knew their experience would take over.             Remember that the Packers faced Johnny Unitas twice a year. They had beaten Doomsday 3 times in 3 consecutive seasons. They had defeated the Browns and Jim Brown 5 straight times. They even knocked off George Allen's Rams twice in 1966. So they were not about to be intimidated or pushed around by the Chiefs.</blockquote>
