Forty Niners Play Packers In Key Game By JOE SARGIS United Press International . The ped-hot San Francisco Forty Niners put their “shotgun” offense on .the line against the invading “second chance” Green Bay Packers today in an opening weekend skirmish which could decide who the Philadelphia Eagles’ opponent will be in the National Football League’s title game. Despite two straight victories with toeir new offense, the Forty Niners, currently tied for first place in the NFL’s Western Division nace with the defending champion ...‘Baltimore Colts and the Packers, ore four-point underdogs against; Green Bay. The Packers got back into the race lost week after two consecutive losses by whipping the Chicago Bears. Both toe Forty Niners and Packers have been practicing in secret all week, but there will be a capacity Kezar Stadium crowd of 59,000 and a naitional television audience looking in when the fireworks erupt in the do-or-die game. Tie Saves Both The only decision that could save bath clubs would be a tie since (the Colts are seven-point picks over the Rams at Los Angeles, (the Bears, a behind (the “top three” in the wideopen Western race, are only fivepoint underdogs to the Browns at Cleveland, and the Detroit Liens, who caused the log-jam by upsetting the Celts last Sunday on a spectacular 65-yard TD on the game, are whopping 13-point favorites against the Dallas Cowboys at home. Each of the live “pretenders ’ has two games left to play, but because of .the closeness of the race there are no less than 27 possibilities for a tie when the regular' season closes next Sunday. K there is no tie. the Western winner will play the Eagles in .the titte game at Philadelphia on Dec. 26. A two-team tie, necessitating only one playoff game would push the title game back a week to Jlan. 2, while a .three to four team tie would shove it back still another week until Jam. 8. The Eagles, who clinched their first Eastern title in 11 years last Sunday when .they beat the St. Louis Cardinals, attempt to keep sharp again* the Steelers at Pittsburgh .this week. The champs are a slim one-point favorite to win their lOtti io-a-row since an opening loss to the Browns. In the remaining NFL game, the New York Giants are picked by seven over the Redskins to Washington. AFL Activity Spirited American Football League activity .this week also is expected to be on the spirited side with the Las Angeles Chargers hoping to clinch .the Western t'xle to home today Against the Denver Bronos, and the Houston Oilers hoping to ckndh the Eastern title at home Sunday against the Buffalo Bills. In the other games, the Boston Patriots play the Texans at Dalias and the New York Titans are on the West Coast against the Oakland Raiders. If Lob Angeles end Houston Jose and New York and Dallas win, then the races won’t be decided until the final Sunday, and even could conceivably end in ties. The CoMb, who never have been htoky against the Rams and Forty Niners on the West Coast, will halve to play without fullback Alan Ameche, who had a leg operation following <the Forty Niner game (two weeks ago. Billy Pricer will fill in ogam. The Rams, who have shown marked improvement in recent weeks, are in good physical shape.
