it would have been called the Landry Trophy after they won the Championship that year.
Landry only passed away in 2000 (and the Lombardi Trophy was only named such after Vince’s death in 1970).

I really don’t care about the field conditions at Green Bay that day.... however the Packers noticed that if Bob Hayes from the Cowboys kept his hands in his pockets he wasn’t gonna be involved in that play. But when he kept his hands out of pocket they knew to spy on him... fun fact that most may not know......

The way I understand the naming of the Super Bowl trophy was since Lombardi won the first one (good coach, blah, blah) it was named after him. Back to my point, if he wouldn’t have cheated by turning off the field heating system that had been installed in GB the night prior to the game Dallas would have more than likely won. Obviously this is just my opinion.
