The Green Bay Packers are a professional American Football team based in Green Bay, Wisconsin . Since their founding in 1919 by Curly Lambeau and George Whitney Calhoun , the Packers have played over 1,479 games in 104 seasons of competitive football. The first two seasons the Packers played against local teams in and around Wisconsin. In 1921, they became part of the American Professional Football Association , the precursor to the National Football League (NFL). In their 102 seasons, the Packers have won 13 Professional American Football Championships (the most in NFL history), including nine NFL Championships and four Super Bowls . They have captured 21 divisional titles, 9 conference championships, and have recorded the most regular season wins (790) in NFL history, tied 2nd (with the Pittsburgh Steelers ) in Playoff wins (36) and have the most overall victories (826) out of all NFL franchises in the history of the league.
The franchise has experienced three major periods of continued success in their history. The first period of success came from ( 1929 – 1944 ), when the Packers were named NFL Champions six times. This period saw the Packers become the first dynasty of American Football ( 1929 – 1931 ). The second period of success was between 1960 – 1967 , during which the Packers won five NFL Championships and the first two Super Bowls. The Packers also won three consecutive NFL Championships for the second time in franchise history ( 1965 – 1967 ). The most recent period of success ranges from( 1993 – Present ), where the franchise has reached the playoffs 22 times, with three Super Bowl appearances, winning two in 1996 and 2010 . This period included the 2011 season, where the team won 15 games, the most the Packers have won in a single season.
The Packers have also experienced periods of extended failure in their history. The two most notable times were from ( 1945 – 1958 ), where the franchise never placed higher than 3rd in the league standings and recorded the worst record of any Packers team, going 1–10–1 in 1958. The second period of continued failure occurred between ( 1968 – 1991 ), where the club only went to the playoffs twice, and recorded only six winning seasons.

Footnotes
- 1 2 The Packers did not compete in a professional league until 1921.
- ↑ Played under the name "Green Bay Blues"
- 1 2 The team with the best record at the end of the season was named the NFL Champion.
- ↑ This marked the first ever "three-peat", where a team wins three consecutive NFL championships. The Packers are still the only team to achieve this.
- ↑ The score of the playoff game is in parentheses with the Packers' score first, regardless of the outcome.
- 1 2 The Playoff Bowl is considered an unofficial, exhibition post-season game.
- ↑ This was the first season the champions of the NFL and American Football League played in the AFL-NFL World Championship Game (later renamed the Super Bowl) and is considered the start of the Super Bowl era. The NFL recognizes all of the teams that played in the first four Super Bowls as NFL or AFL champions. For the Packers, the distinction is irrelevant since they won both AFL-NFL World Championship Games they played.
- ↑ This is the franchise's tenth NFL championship, as well as their first Super Bowl victory.
- ↑ The 1967 season marks the first time the NFL's two conferences were further subdivided into two divisions.
- ↑ This marked the second time the Packers have achieved three consecutive NFL championships.
- ↑ As a result of the NFL-AFL Merger, the league was reorganized into two conferences, with most former NFL teams going to the NFC. The Packers were placed into the newly formed NFC Central, which became the NFL North in 2002.
- ↑ Season shortened by a strike, with divisions temporarily suspended and standings based on conference alone.
- ↑ The strike of 1987 reduced the regular season from 16 to 15 games.
- ↑ Game known as the Mud Bowl.
- ↑ First Super Bowl loss for the Packers, and first loss in a championship game since 1960.
- ↑ First player to win three AP NFL MVPs, and the only time a player has won three consecutive MVP awards.
- ↑ Excludes the Packers' two seasons outside the NFL (1919 and 1920), in which they earned an additional 19 wins, 2 losses, and 1 tie.
