Short answers, pulled from the story.
The 1932 NFL season featured eight franchises including the Boston Braves, Brooklyn Dodgers, Chicago Bears, Chicago Cardinals, Green Bay Packers, New York Giants, Portsmouth Spartans, and Staten Island Stapletons. Three clubs departed entirely from the league that year leaving only half its previous size.
The Chicago Bears claimed the 1932 title by defeating the Portsmouth Spartans 9 to 0 in a playoff game held on December 4. The Bears finished with a 7, 1, 6 record while the Packers ended as runners-up and the Spartans took third place at 6, 2, 4.
Extreme cold forced officials to move the championship decision indoors to the Chicago Stadium after Wrigley Field became unplayable. This event marked the first-ever NFL championship playoff game in history and occurred inside a building during winter.
Officials placed goal posts directly on the goal line instead of behind the end zone because the indoor stadium lacked space for standard placement. The league adopted this specific rule change permanently starting in 1933 and it remained in effect through the 1973 season before moving back to the back of the end zone.
Arnie Flash Heber led all passers with 639 yards for Green Bay during the 1932 NFL season. Walt Holmer followed with 449 yards for the Bears and Jack McBride threw for 363 yards as a Giant.
