Details

The Packers were founded in 1919 by Earl "Curly" Lambeau and George Whitney Calhoun in the small town of Green Bay, Wisconsin. After competing as a semi professional squad for some time, the Packers joined the American Professional Football Association in 1921. The APFA would be the precursor to the modern NFL, although in those days many team played in such quaint sounding places as Pottsville and Frankfort.

 

Since its early days in the league the Packers franchise has excelled on the field. The Packers currently own 12 league championships, including three Super Bowls. The Packers also own the distinction of being the only team to win three championships in a row, a feat the team accomplished twice (1929-1931, 1965-1967).

The most famous period in Packers history came during the tenure of Vince Lombardi as coach of the team during the 1960s. Lombardi was hired in 1959 and immediately helped the team improve from a 1-1-10 record the previous year to finish 7-5. By the following year, the Packers would play in the NFL Championship game, losing to the Philadelphia Eagles 17-13.

The Packers returned to the title game in 1961 and 1962, each time defeating the New York Giants. The first game was a 37-0 rout, while the second game finished 16-7.

The Packers then won three championships in a row, including the first two Super Bowls. In 1965, the Packers defeated the Cleveland Browns 23-12. The following two seasons the Packers defeated the Dallas Cowboys in the NFL Championship game before meeting and defeating the AFL champion in the Super Bowl. In Super Bowl I, the Packers the Kansas City Chiefs 35-10. In Super Bowl II, they defeated the Oakland Raiders 33-14.

The Packers next Super Bowl victory came in 1997, as Bret Favre led the team to a 35-21 victory over the New England Patriots. The Packers returned to the Super Bowl the following season only to fall to John Elway's Denver Broncos 31-24.
