The 1947 National Football League season resulted in a tie for the Eastern Division title between the Philadelphia Eagles and Pittsburgh Steelers; both finished the regular season at 8–4, requiring a one-game playoff.[1] They had split their two-game series in the season, with the home teams prevailing; the Steelers won by eleven on October 19,[2] while the Eagles carded a 21–0 shutout on November 30 at Shibe Park.[3]

The Steelers and Detroit Lions opened their seasons a week before the rest of the ten-team league on September 21,[4] and completed their schedules on December 7.[5][6] Philadelphia needed a win over the visiting Green Bay Packers on December 14 to force a playoff the following week,[7] and won by fourteen points.[8][9]

This division playoff game was the Steelers' first (and only until 1972) postseason appearance, and was played on December 21 at Forbes Field in Pittsburgh.[10][11] The winner traveled to Chicago to play in the NFL championship game the following week against the Cardinals (9–3) at Comiskey Park. Originally scheduled for December 21, the playoff pushed the title game to December 28.

Scoring touchdowns in each of the first three quarters, the Eagles posted another 21–0 shutout to win the East title and advanced to the championship game in Chicago.[11][12][13]

Ideal free distribution

In ecology, an ideal free distribution (IFD) is a theoretical way in which a population's individuals distribute themselves among several patches of resources within their environment, in order to minimize resource competition and maximize fitness.[1][2] The theory states that the number of individual animals that will aggregate in various patches is proportional to the amount of resources available in each. For example, if patch A contains twice as many resources as patch...
