Must have been in the AFC.....I think the Ice Bowl is still the coldest in history at -15. Keep in mind that they didn't keep some of those stats way back when. I bet there were a lot of games that were very cold before football kept the kind of records they do today. Although the season ended sooner than it does today

a trivia nut looks for answer:)<< Ice Bowl Green Bay Packers 21, Dallas Cowboys 17 Dec. 31, 1967 With 16 seconds remaining in Green Bay, Packers quarterback Bart Starr knifed into the end zone to defeat Dallas in the 1967 NFL championship game. The temperatures were the coldest ever recorded for an NFL game, at 14 below and a wind chill of minus-49. The wind chill had dropped another 20 degrees by the time of Starr's score, which lifted the Packers to their third league championship in a row.>> <<Jan. 15, 1994 vs. Los Angeles In what was the coldest game ever played in Buffalo, the Bills beat the Raiders 29-23 in temperatures hovering around zero, with a wind chill of -32. Buffalo advanced to their fourth straight AFC Championship>> but here is a claim of coldest game ever but it does NOT match the figures qouted for the Ice Bowl, for at windchill -59, this would be less than the -69 windchill inferred in the above text on the Ice Bowl. <<January 10 1982 -- Cincinnati defeats San Diego 27-7 in the coldest game in NFL history. The temperature at kickoff of the AFC Championship Game is -9, with a wind-chill factor of -59. >>
