In a 1942 game vs. Washington the New York Giants didn't get a first down [at the time touchdowns didn't count as first downs] , only had one yard rushing, and only completed one pass but won 14-7. That one completion went for a Touchdown.

And that one pass for 50 yards was the only pass the Giants threw that day.
Very interesting game... would've been fun to watch!
