This game was a rematch of the 1956 championship, won by the Giants 47 – 7.
The 1963 National Football League Championship Game was played on December 29, 1963 at Wrigley Field in Chicago. The game pitted the visiting New York Giants (11-3) against the Chicago Bears (11-1-2) in the 31st annual championship game. Originally, NFL Commissioner Pete Rozelle asked Bears owner/coach George Halas to move the game to Soldier Field due to increased seating capacity as well as lights, in case the sun would set during the game. When Halas refused, Rozelle pushed the starting time of the game to 12:05 pm Central Time. The championship was also played on a day when the game time temperature was between 9-11 degrees Fahrenheit. It was bitter cold and I was there! LB Larry Morris was MVP for effectively disabling Giants' QB Y.A. Tittle with two savage tackles.
