Gordon F. Paschka (March 6, 1920 – June 9, 1964) was an American football guard and blocking fullback in the National Football League (NFL) for the 1943 Phil/Pitt "Steagles", a one-year combination of the Philadelphia Eagles and Pittsburgh Steelers forced by the loss of so many players serving in World War II, as well as the New York Giants for one year after the war.

Paschka was a member of the 1943 Steagles, a short-lived combination of the two NFL teams based in Pennsylvania forced by the greatly constrained size of available players owing to World War II.

Wearing uniform number 61, Paschke was able to play the 1943 season on account of the 3-A draft status assigned to him as a father.

[5] This time he would make the opening day roster, seeing action in 6 games for the club at the fullback position.

[9] However, roster pressures proved too much and the Giants released Paschka along with his fellow Jersey City running mate, Bobby Morris, on November 29, 1947, effectively ending his pro football career.

[13] The body of Paschka's fishing companion, John Shuger, of Wilton Junction, Iowa, was recovered 18 days after the mishap.
