Meanwhile, the Green Bay Packers were named the NFL champions for the third consecutive time after they finished the season with the best record.
Championship race
The two best teams in 1931, the Green Bay Packers and the Portsmouth Spartans, did not face each other that season. The Spartans would later become the Detroit Lions, and face the Packers regularly, but not in their 14 games in '31. Green Bay and Portsmouth were both unbeaten at 7–0–0 after seven weeks of play. In Week Eight, however, the Spartans played two games on the weekend of October 31. After defeating Frankford 14–0, Portsmouth travelled to New York's Polo Grounds to face the Giants. A crowd of 32,500 watched the Spartans lose, 14–0. In Chicago, the Packers beat the Bears, 6–2. The next week, Portsmouth lost again. When the Packers were finally beaten in Week Ten, losing 21–13 to the Cardinals and falling to 9–1–0, Portsmouth was at 10–2–0. In Week Eleven, Portsmouth had a "must win" game against the Cardinals, and was trailing 13–7 at halftime. Dutch Clark scored a touchdown, but Glenn Presnell's conversion attempt failed, leaving the score at 13–13. After the Cards went up 20–13, even a tying score would have left the Spartans in second place, and Portsmouth lost 20–19. The same day, Green Bay won at New York, 14–10, and won on Thanksgiving (38–7 at Providence). On November 29, Green Bay registered its 12th win, 7–0 at Brooklyn, to clinch the title, and a 7–6 loss to the Bears the next week was immaterial. 1931 Green Bay Packers season
The 1956 NFL season was the 37th regular season of the National Football League. CBS became the first network to televise some regular season games across the nation. Meanwhile, the league started to use a natural leather ball with white end stripes, instead of the white ball with black stripes, for night games.
It is now illegal to grab an opponent's facemask (other than the ball carrier).
Using radio receivers to communicate with players on the field is prohibited.
The ball for night games was changed from white with black stripes to brown with white stripes.
Conference races
The Lions and the Cardinals had both finished 1955 poorly, 3–9 and 4–7–1, but both got off to fast starts in 1956. Both ended up finishing second in the Conference races.
The Chicago Cardinals got off to their best start ever, going 4–0, until the Redskins beat them 17–14 on October 28. At the midway point, they and the Giants had 5–1 records. In the Western Conference, the Detroit Lions roared to a 6–0 start. In Week Seven (November 11), the Giants pulled ahead with a 23–10 win over the Cards. In Washington, the Lions finally lost. Trapped on his own 1-yard line, Yale Lary took a safety in order to get a free kick. That, and Sam Baker's field goal, gave the Redskins an 18–10 lead to put the game out of reach, and the Lions lost 18–17. The Bears, who had dropped their opener at Baltimore, 28–21, beat Green Bay 38–14 for their sixth straight game, matching Detroit's 6–1 record.
A jersey numbering system is adopted (players who played in 1972 are grandfathered):
1–19: Quarterbacks and specialists
20–49: Running backs and defensive backs
50–59: Centers and linebackers
60–79: Defensive linemen and offensive linemen other than centers
80–89: Wide receivers and tight ends
Numbers 0, 00, and 90–99 are no longer allowed to be issued, even though these numbers were rarely issued anyway. Numbers 90–99 would be allowed again in 1984 for defensive linemen and linebackers in addition to the above-mentioned numbers.
The 1948 season featured the highest per-game, per-team scoring in NFL history, with the average team scoring 23.2 points per game. This record stood for 65 years until 2013.
Major rule changes
Plastic helmets are prohibited. This rule was enacted because critics argued that they were being used more as a weapon than protection.
A flexible artificial tee is permitted at the kickoff.
When the intended passer is tackled behind the line of scrimmage, the game clock will stop temporarily until any receivers who have gone down field have had a reasonable time to return.

Scheduling in the NFL in the 1920s was bizarre. As an example, when the Chicago Bears lost a 1922 game on Thanksgiving to the Chicago Cardinals, owner George Halas decided to schedule a rematch for immediately afterwards... which the Bears also lost. This is the story behind the craziness of the 1922 season, and how scheduling used to work
