1.Packers history
In 1921, the Green Bay Packers debuted after being granted a membership into the new National Football League (NFL). As most Green Bay Packers fans know, the team went onto win the very first Super Bowl against the Kansas City Chiefs, who were then in the American Football League (AFL). It was the first ever World Championship between the AFL and the NFL, and on January 15, 1967, the Packers took home a victory while 60 million people watched. Quarterback Bart Starr was named the Most Valuable Player after the game, and the Packers' legacy began.
In 1970, the AFL and NFL merged into a single league, and the Super Bowl became a match between the top football teams in the American Football Conference (AFC) and the National Football Conference (NFC). Since then, the Green Bay Packers have continued to pave their way through sport's history, remaining a unique staple in the football world as the only community-owned non-profit organization in the NFL.
According to their official website, the Green Bay Packers have won 13 championships as of September 2017, which is more than any other team in the NFL's history.
A number of exceptional players have played or currently play for the team, such as Jim Ringo, Reggie White, Clay Matthews, Jordy Nelson, Randall Cobb and many more. Aaron Rodgers, our very own #12 and the current quarterback, has cemented his own legacy in the league with his impressive performances on the field that have equated to incredible stats, records, and plenty of career highlights.
