Any self-respecting Packers fan can argue for several hours on the greatest player who has ever donned the Packers jersey. It’s a tough call. With 13 NFL titles and four Super Bowl crowns, not to mention countless of astonishing seasons, the team is filled with some of the greatest talents the game has ever seen.

Winning back-to-back MVP awards in 1941 and 1942, Hutson held a total of 18 NFL records by the time he retired. He had a total of 99 touchdown receptions, a record only broken by Steve Largent in 1989. Quarterback Brett Favre is also a Packer favorite. His 160 wins with the Packers broke the all-time high of John Elway which was 148. Favre threw a total of 61,655 yards in his great career, topping Dan Marino’s 61,361. He also broke Marino’s record of touchdown passes 442 to Marino’s 420. Image source: www.pinterest.com However, the title of greatest Packer of all time has to be quarterback Bart Starr. Between 1961 and 1967, Starr led the Packers to five NFL titles. He also helped the team win Super Bowl I and II. Starr is praised for his passing and quick decision making. One of his career highlights was his sneak dive into the end zone to claim the championships over the Dallas Cowboys in 1967. This was done in -15 degrees Fahrenheit temperatures.
