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.

The Bills and Browns played a classic shootout on an ice cold field during the 1989 AFC Divisional Playoff Game. The weather proved to be a a tough challenge as touchdowns were given up and field goals were lost due to slipping. With the field giving an equal treatment of mishaps to both teams, the game came down to a game saving interception by Browns linebacker Clay Mathews at his own 1 yard line with 3 seconds remaining in the game.

Hello friends - I am uploading this again with edits due to NFL Copyright claims.
Here are bits and pieces of Week 16's The NFL Today on CBS. I have some pregame, halftime and postgame pieces included. Brent Musburger, Irv Cross, Will McDonough and others report on the Week 16 action on Christmas Eve 1989. Enjoy plenty of scores, highlights and more. Due to NFL Copyrights I had to remove The NFL Today "plays of the year."

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.
