A lot of good ones there, and if we go on to and win the Super Bowl this year, that Hail Mary pass will probably be the turning point that got things back on track.
I can think of four plays, though, that weren't on the list - two of which for sure top all of those, and the third one that for some reason stands out in my mind, and the fourth failed but it typified the Lombardi Packers.
That third was also against the Lions. The Packers were down 7-6 late in the game and driving when Herb Adderley intercepted a pass and took it back deep enough into Detroit territory that the Packers could kick a field goal and win 9-7.
The fourth was I think Lombardi's first playoff team - the game against the Eagles. The Packers were driving at the end, but ran out of time - as Vince said, they never lost, they just occasionally ran out of time. Jimmy Taylor either caught a pass from Starr or broke into the secondary on a run, I can't remember which. The clock was down to zero; Taylor got to about the 10 and Bednarik was blocking his path - the meanest toughest linebacker around prior to Nitschke and Butkis. Taylor smashed into him and drove him back about 5 yards before going down to end the game.
Number two on my list would be in Super Bowl I. Max McGee, after not really expecting to play much and probably with a hangover from partying the night before, made that juggling spectacular catch to give the Packers their first score in a game that honestly was worrisome as to whether we really were better than the AFL and K.C. I remember a Willie Wood interception in that game that was a pretty big moment too, as well as Kramer and Thurston pulling out on the Packer Sweep and breaking Fred the Hammer Williams' hammer arm. And if you count non-player stuff, the Lombardi statement after the game tops everything - "Aw, it was nothing any of the top teams in our league couldn't have done" - twist that knife hahahahahaha.
Top of the list: how could they have left this off? The play that Jerry Kramer wrote his book - Instant Reply - about, the Starr QB Sneak to get us into Super Bowl I.
