Has Ken Bowman been denied proper credit for the greatest block in Green Bay Packers history?

The Ice Bowl has been part of the Green Bay Packers fabric for more than five decades. Mention the name Bart Starr or Jerry Kramer, and it won't take long before the Ice Bowl gets brought up — Starr for the legendary sneak that helped Green Bay beat the Dallas Cowboys and pave a path to Super Bowl II and Kramer for throwing the block that made it possible.

But should Ken Bowman get more credit for that moment in time, taking place Dec. 31, 1967, now 56 years ago?

Bowman, whose death at 81 was reported early in 2024, was a 25-year-old center out of the University of Wisconsin playing for the Packers that season, his fourth year with Green Bay.
