Thus, Chicago hosted the Eastern Conference champs, the New York Giants, in the Bears' fourth championship game in ten years, and the third between the representatives of America's two biggest cities.
This game began much the way the 1933 championship game had, as 3 Bob Snyder field goals gave the Bears a modest halftime lead over the Giants' 7 points on a first-quarter touchdown pass from George Fanck to Tuffy Leemans. Early in the third quarter, the Giants would tie things on a Ward Cuff field goal, but things went all Chicago's way after that.
Bears' Fullback Norm Standlee capped off two long drives with touchdown runs, and George McAfee did the same in the fourth. As the Giants' tried to manage a face-saving score in the final seconds, a forced fumble took the ball from the hands of Giant Andy Marefos, and Bear Ken Kavanaugh ran 42 yards, crossing the goalline with 9 seconds left in the game. A dropkick converted the extra point, and the Bears repeated as champions, beating the Giants 37-9.
