- The 1965 NFL Championship Game was the 33rd championship game for the National Football League (NFL), played on January 2, 1966, at Lambeau Field in Green Bay, Wisconsin. This was the first NFL championship game played in January, televised in color, and the last one played before the Super Bowl era. The game matched the Eastern Conference champion Cleveland Browns (11–3), the defending NFL champions, and the Green Bay Packers (10–3–1) of the Western Conference. A week earlier, the Packers defeated the Baltimore Colts in a tiebreaker Western Conference playoff at Lambeau Field, while the Browns were idle. The Packers were making their first appearance in the championship game in three years, since their consecutive wins in 1961 and 1962. Green Bay was relegated to the third place Playoff Bowl the previous two seasons, with a victory over the Browns and a loss to the St. Louis Cardinals. The home field for the NFL title game alternated between the conferences; in odd-numbered seasons, the Western team was the host. Home field advantage was not implemented in the NFL playoffs until 1975. With the 23–12 victory, the Packers won their ninth NFL title, sixth in the championship game era. (en)

La gara vide affrontarsi i vincitori della Eastern Conference, i Cleveland Browns (11-3), campioni della NFL in carica, e. i vincitori della Western Conference, i Green Bay Packers (10-3-1) che avevano battuto i Baltimore Colts una settimana prima nella finale di conference. I Packers furono alla loro prima apparizione in finale dal 1962. Questa fu la prima finale della NFL ad essere trasmessa in televisione a colori. Con la vittoria, i Packers arrivarono al loro nono titolo, il sesto da quando il campionato si decise tramite i playoff. I Packers, allenati da Vince Lombardi, potevano contare su un attacco formato dalle stelle Bart Starr, Paul Hornung, Jim Taylor e Carroll Dale assieme agli uomini della linea offensiva Jerry Kramer, Forrest Gregg e Fuzzy Thurston. In difesa, Green Bay schierava tra gli altri Herb Adderley, Ray Nitschke, Willie Wood e Dave Robinson. Cleveland, allenata da Blanton Collier, aveva Jim Brown, i wide receiver Gary Collins e Paul Warfield, la guardia Gene Hickerson e il kicker Lou "The Toe" Groza in attacco. La difesa invece non era al livello dell'attacco, concedendo 23.2 punti a gara durante la stagione regolare. Malgrado una tempesta di neve che imbiancò il campo, 50.777 tifosi assistettero alla gara svoltasi a una temperatura di -32 °C. (it)
