Throw some starting backfields at me, and I will try to put up their photographs. They need not be "great;" the memories alone will serve the purpose. I will start with a few:
1950s New York Giants
Charlie Conerly
Frank Gifford
Alex Webster
1950s Baltimore Colts
Johnny Unitas
Lenny Moore
Alan Ameche
1960s Green Bay Packers
Bart Starr
Paul Hornung
Jim Taylor
1960s Cleveland Browns
Frank Ryan
Jim Brown
Ernie Green
1960s Philadelphia Eagles
Norman Snead
Timmy Brown
Earl Gros

How about that sign for Fuzzy Thurston in the crowd? Think his family was in attendance? ;D

Steve,
That photo is most likely from the 1961 Championship Game, played at Curly Lambeau Field. The Packers defeated the Giants, 37-0.
How about the 1967 St. Louis Cardinals:
Jim Hart
Johnnie Roland
Prentice Gault
