Editing Super Bowl II (section)

==Game summary==
===First quarter===
The game kicked off at 3:05&nbsp;p.m. [[Eastern Time Zone|EST]].<ref name=reagapff/> On Oakland's first offensive play, Green Bay linebacker [[Ray Nitschke]] shot through a gap and upended fullback [[Hewritt Dixon]] in what was one of Nitschke's signature plays of his entire career. The hit was so vicious, it prompted Jerry Green, a ''[[Detroit News]]'' columnist sitting in the press box with fellow journalists, to say in a deadpan, that the game was ''over''.<ref>Gruver, 2002 pg. 266</ref> After forcing the Raiders to punt on their first possession, the Packers opened up the scoring with kicker [[Don Chandler]]'s 39-yard field goal after marching 34 yards on their first drive of the game, giving Green Bay an early 3–0 lead. The Raiders picked up four first downs on their second drive, which included a pass interference penalty called on Nitschke, but they could not reach field goal range and were forced to punt back to the Packers. Green Bay started their next drive from their own 3-yard line, but picked up 84 yards, during which quarterback [[Bart Starr]] completed a 17-yard pass to wide receiver [[Carroll Dale]] and then rushed for 14 yards while escaping a sack by defensive end [[Ben Davidson]] and defensive tackle [[Tom Keating (American football)|Tom Keating]]. The Packers also elected to convert 4th-and-inches at the Raiders' 35-yard line, and fullback [[Ben Wilson (fullback)|Ben Wilson]] picked up 3 yards and the first down to end the quarter.

===Second quarter===
Despite Green Bay's excellent field position, their drive stalled at the 13-yard line, forcing them to settle for a 20-yard field goal by Chandler to take a 6–0 lead. Less than two minutes later after forcing an Oakland three-and-out, the Packers took the ball on their own 38-yard line. Raiders cornerback [[Kent McCloughan]] jammed Packers wide receiver [[Boyd Dowler]] at the line of scrimmage, but then allowed him to head downfield, thinking that a safety would pick him up.<ref>''The Ultimate Super Bowl Book,'' Bob McGinn. MVP Books, 2009, p. 22.</ref> However, McCloughan and safety [[Howie Williams]] were both influenced by the Packer running backs who were executing a "flood" pattern, with halfback [[Travis Williams (running back)|Travis Williams]] and Wilson running pass routes to the same side as Dowler. Dowler ran a quick post and was wide open down the middle. He grabbed Starr's pass well behind linebacker [[Dan Conners]], and safety [[Rodger Bird]] could not get over quickly enough. Dowler outran the defense to score on a 62-yard touchdown reception, increasing the Packers' lead to 13–0. Green Bay became the first team in a Super Bowl to score on its first three possessions on offense.

After being completely dominated until this point, the Raiders offense finally struck back on their next possession, advancing 79 yards in 9 plays, and scoring on a 23-yard touchdown pass from quarterback [[Daryle Lamonica]] to wide receiver [[Bill Miller (wide receiver)|Bill Miller]], cutting the Raiders' deficit to 13–7. The score seemed to fire up the Raiders' defense, and they forced the Packers to punt on their next drive. Bird gave the Raiders great field position with a 12-yard return to Green Bay's 40-yard line, but Oakland could only gain 1 yard with their next three plays and came up empty when kicker/backup quarterback [[George Blanda]]'s 46-yard field goal attempt fell short of the goal posts. Oakland's defense again forced Green Bay to punt after three plays on the ensuing drive, but this time after calling for a fair catch, Bird fumbled punter/running back [[Donny Anderson]]'s twisting, left-footed kick, and Packers tight end [[Dick Capp]] recovered the ball. After two incomplete passes, Starr threw a 9-yard completion to Dowler (despite a heavy rush from defensive end [[Ike Lassiter]]) to set up Chandler's third field goal from the 43 as time expired in the first half, giving the Packers a 16–7 lead.

At halftime, Packers guard [[Jerry Kramer]] said to his teammates (referring to Lombardi), "Let's play the last 30 minutes for the old man."<ref>Jerry Kramer, "Super Bowl II," ''Super Bowl: The Game of Their Lives,'' Danny Peary, editor. Macmillan, 1997. {{ISBN|0-02-860841-0}}</ref>

===Third quarter===
Any chance the Raiders might have had to make a comeback seemed to completely vanish in the second half. The Packers had the ball three times in the third quarter, and held it for all but two and a half minutes. On the Packers' second drive of the half starting at their own 17, Wilson ripped up the middle for 14 yards on a draw play. Anderson picked up 8 yards on a sweep, and Wilson carried to within inches of the first down. Starr then pulled one of his favorite plays on third down and short yardage, faking to Wilson and completing a 35-yard pass to wide receiver [[Max McGee]] who had slipped past three Raiders at the line of scrimmage. This was McGee's only reception of the game, and the final one of his career. Starr then hit Dale on a sideline route at the Oakland 13. Starr overthrew Anderson wide open in the end zone, but on the next play he rolled out to the right and threw back to Anderson who was tackled at the 2-yard line by linebacker [[Gus Otto]]. The next play was a broken play, as Anderson thought he saw daylight to the right but ran into Starr. The Packers were not rattled, and  Anderson's 2-yard touchdown run increased Green Bay's lead to 23–7.

Packers guard [[Jerry Kramer]] must have taken to heart his plea to play the second half for Coach Lombardi. On this drive, game films show him blowing Conners out of Wilson's path on the draw play, then flattening Conners again on Anderson's scoring run.

Again the Green Bay defense forced Oakland to go three-and-out, and the Raiders punted. The Packers drove from their own 39-yard line to the Raiders' 24 and increased their lead to 26–7 as Chandler kicked his fourth field goal of the game (which hit the crossbar from 31 yards out and bounced over).

===Fourth quarter===
On the Raiders' first play of the fourth quarter, Lamonica completed a pass to running back [[Pete Banaszak]], but safety [[Tom Brown (safety)|Tom Brown]] forced a fumble on Banaszak, which was recovered and returned to the Raiders' 37-yard line by linebacker [[Dave Robinson (American football)|Dave Robinson]]. On the next play, however, Starr was knocked out of the game when he jammed the thumb on his throwing hand after getting sacked for an 11-yard loss by Davidson. Starr was replaced by [[Zeke Bratkowski]], who was then sacked on his only pass attempt. The Packers could not get back to the original line of scrimmage after the sack, forcing them to punt it back to the Raiders. However, the Packers cemented the game when cornerback [[Herb Adderley]] intercepted a pass intended for wide receiver [[Fred Biletnikoff]] and returned it 60 yards for a touchdown, making the score 33–7 in favor of Green Bay. Adderley laid back as Biletnikoff ran a curl route, then dashed in front of him to snare the ball and scored with the help of a crushing downfield block by defensive tackle [[Ron Kostelnik]].

Oakland did manage to score on their next drive after the turnover with a second 23-yard touchdown pass from Lamonica to Miller, set up by Banaszak's 41-yard reception on the previous play. But all the Raiders' second touchdown did was make the final score look remotely more respectable, 33–14.

At the end of the game, coach Lombardi was carried off the field by his victorious Packers in one of the more memorable images of early Super Bowl history. It was in fact Lombardi's last game as Packer coach and his ninth consecutive playoff victory.

Oakland's Bill Miller was the top receiver of the game with 5 receptions for 84 yards and 2 touchdowns. Green Bay fullback [[Ben Wilson (fullback)|Ben Wilson]] was the leading rusher of the game with 62 yards despite missing most of the fourth quarter while looking for a lost contact lens on the sidelines. [[Don Chandler]] ended his Packer career in style with 4 field goals. Lamonica, the game's leading passer, finished with 15 out of 34 pass completions for 208 yards, 2 touchdowns, and 1 interception. Bart Starr completed 13 of 24 (with a couple of dropped passes) for 202 yards and one touchdown; his passer rating for the game was 96.2 to Lamonica's 71.7. The Packers outgained the Raiders in rushing yardage 160 to 107, led in time of possession by 35:54 to 24:06, had no turnovers, and only one penalty. Packer guard Jerry Kramer later recalled the mental mistakes his team made in the game, which only highlights the impossibly high standards held by Lombardi's team.<ref>''The Ultimate Super Bowl Book,'' Bob McGinn. MVP Books, 2009, p. 21.</ref> As previously mentioned,  this was Lombardi's last game as Green Bay head coach and this was also the final game for Green Bay Packer players [[Max McGee]], [[Fuzzy Thurston]], and [[Don Chandler]].<ref>{{Cite web |title=Max McGee Career Game Log |url=https://www.pro-football-reference.com/players/M/McGeMa00/gamelog/ |access-date=2024-06-15 |website=[[Pro Football Reference]] |language=en |archive-date=June 15, 2024 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240615032101/https://www.pro-football-reference.com/players/M/McGeMa00/gamelog/ |url-status=live }}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=Fuzzy Thurston Career Game Log |url=https://www.pro-football-reference.com/players/T/ThurFu20/gamelog/ |access-date=2024-06-15 |website=[[Pro Football Reference]] |language=en |archive-date=June 15, 2024 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240615011515/https://www.pro-football-reference.com/players/T/ThurFu20/gamelog/ |url-status=live }}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=Don Chandler Career Game Log |url=https://www.pro-football-reference.com/players/C/ChanDo20/gamelog/ |access-date=2024-06-15 |website=[[Pro Football Reference]] |language=en |archive-date=June 15, 2024 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240615011544/https://www.pro-football-reference.com/players/C/ChanDo20/gamelog/ |url-status=live }}</ref>
