1936 NFL Season — Final Standings
Final regular-season standings for the year of the NFL's first-ever draft (held in February, months before this season kicked off), with Philadelphia's Jay Berwanger the first overall pick. Green Bay routed a Boston team already showing the strain that would push it out of the city: with home attendance sagging, the Redskins' championship-game loss to the Packers (21-6) was played at a neutral site, the Polo Grounds in New York, rather than in Boston.
