Favre was a choker. Give me Bart Starr any day when time is winding down and the playoffs are on the line.

Hutson dominated like no other ever has or will regardless of what position they play. even more that he was a pretty good corner as well.

but I don't know any other player that was on Hutsons level when you compare to the rest of the league.

Hutson
Starr
Taylor/Hornung


the rest I have a really hard time putting in order.

IMO if we remove Favre's turd years, Rodgers still has some catching up to do.

but he'll get it.

I've omitted the non Packers team years for Favre when thinking of greatest Packers player of all time. So, Falcons, Jets and Vikings seasons mean nothing to me in regards to Brett Favre.

I reckon it is how one looks at the Packers and what they represent to the individual Packer Fan as far as who "The Greatest Is." There is no doubt ever player mentioned in every response above is valid.

When I think of Green Bay I think of smash-mouth football. That is the first thing that pops in my mind, even though now for many youngin Packer fans they associate the team with precision passing and a remarkable scoring machine.

For me.. Ask me in a bar over a pint of beer, and the first name that will roll off my lips is ole Number 66.

Ray was ruthless, barbarous, and the reincarnation of Attila The Hun every Sunday. HOWEVER.. The nicest, kindhearted, gentle man from Monday to Saturday. He was "The original Packer People Person, before the term "Packer People" was born.

Every Sunday Ray would take it out on every player on the other team that his parents died when he was 13 years old, and he never had a Mom and Dad per say. He channeled that anger one day a week during the football season. Then he left that anger there for six days and became the nicest guy... until the next game.

I would say Ray Nitschke. Although ever other player mentioned above is just as valid.

I just learned something about Ray Nitschke. Thanks. I think he would be in the discussion for sure.

Yeah it was amazing to read about the things Ray did for others and then think about how he could be a cold blooded killing machine on Sundays.
I got a few glimpses into his nature after his career was over.

Reggie White was pretty good!!!! :)

Reggie doesn't come to Green Bay, do the Packers build a championship team?

Never saw Don Hutson play , but will put him at the top with Bart Starr. 1A and 1B

Zeke Bratkowski on Bart Starr "Off the field he is the nicest man in the world, put him on the field facing a defernse with a 3rd and 1 or 4th and 1 and he will cut it's heart out and show it to them"
Not an exact quote, but pretty close.

Ray Nitshke never had turf toe!!! I'll put him and Reggie at 2A and 2B.

Tough to say where to put the Packers of the 20's - 50's, I am sure there are guys who deserve being in the top 10, but never having seen them play, I'll leave that up to The historians.

Gotta put Brett at #5, no matter what happened late in his career, for 16 years he played some of the best football in Packer history.

Aaron Rodgers is work in progress, hopefully he will shoot to the top by the time he is done, 4 more championships and a couple more mvp's and that should do it.

I just don't like him as a playoff QB.

Fan Shout
Zero2Cool (1h) : Luke Getsy been helping Packers defense. He's former OC Bears/Raiders and our old QB coach
beast (2-Jan) : Thanks dfosterf, I'm still kicking myself for last week, as I forgot to change to pick Vikings and Lions... after putting in a holding spot.
Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : First alternate: Elgton Jenkins Other alternates: Jordan Love, Kenny Clark, Keisean Nixon, Tucker Kraft, Josh Myers, Jaire Alexander
Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : Pro Bowl still a thing? Guess Packers have three. Jacobs, Gary, McKinney.
dfosterf (2-Jan) : It's a mine field with all the players sitting, etc
dfosterf (2-Jan) : There was quite a bit of "chalk" matchups this year it seemed, but not this week coming up
Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : Or we got better and by we I mean everyone except me
Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : We have about six that by percent would have won nearly any season. I guess 2024 was predictable 🤷
Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : You can check previous seasons. I quick did it and don't think anyone hit 70% before
dfosterf (2-Jan) : Hats off to the Beast
dfosterf (2-Jan) : I'm at 71.76% in pick 'em. 2nd place. Beast is at a flat 75% 9 games ahead. That 75% has got to be unprecedented this late in the season
beast (2-Jan) : I don't care deeply, just want some good entertaining games
Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : BTW, not serious.
Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : You don't care about it either!!!!
Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : NIL and Portal killed college, no one cares about it.
Mucky Tundra (2-Jan) : outside of Texas-Arizona St, it's been a snoozefest
beast (2-Jan) : I expect Georgia will change that tomorrow, but we'll have to wait and see. If they do, then only Big 10 and SEC are left.
beast (2-Jan) : So much for Conference Championship meaning something as 100% (so far) of the conference Champions lost their first playoff game.
Zero2Cool (1-Jan) : Jaire had surgery, season over.
Mucky Tundra (1-Jan) : I guess I need a new sig Pic. Boo
Mucky Tundra (1-Jan) : Eric Dickerson approves of this decision
beast (1-Jan) : Eagles are resting RB Saquon Barkley, so there is no chance he breaks the record despite being just 101 yards from it
Zero2Cool (1-Jan) : Patriots are waiving veteran pass rusher Yannick Ngakoue
beast (1-Jan) : Happy New Year's 🥳🎉
beast (31-Dec) : I want to them chant some songs for Daniel Whelan
beast (31-Dec) : Let's win one! Also, hopefully the Irish will stand with Daniel Whelan
Mucky Tundra (31-Dec) : After London and Brazil, I could go without an overseas game for a while
Zero2Cool (31-Dec) : Packers. Steelers. Ireland. 2025. Reports say.
Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Matt Lafleur on if Jaire will play again this season. "Yeah I don't know... he's been dealing with swelling."
Mucky Tundra (30-Dec) : After the way they played for most of the game yesterday, I don't see how you can sit anyone for the whole game
Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : I'd say play everyone. Going into playoffs at 7th seed on two game lose streak - yucky
Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Do the Packers have any best players?
beast (30-Dec) : Play or Rest*
beast (30-Dec) : Should the Packers play or free their best players vs the Bears?
Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Packers should be 3 - 2 in the Division. Bonkers being swept by both Lions and Vikings. yikes
go.pack.go. (30-Dec) : All crazy stuff…and good point beast
beast (30-Dec) : Packers should be 0-5 in the division, can't say I saw that coming, even 1-4
Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Sam Darnold 35 TD's ... another one
Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : Baker Mayfield, 39 TD's ... can't say I saw that one
Zero2Cool (30-Dec) : No matter who is playing as 7th, I think we want them to win. Get rid of 2nd seed haha
go.pack.go. (30-Dec) : That would be dhazer who was rooting for Minnesota
beast (30-Dec) : Well, Commanders are currently the 6th seed and Packers the 7th
beast (30-Dec) : Who was it in Chat, that wanted the Vikings to win (because Lions fans upset them) because Packers could not lose the 6th seed?
beast (30-Dec) : If Falcons win, Packers stay as the 6th seed and Falcons lead the NFCS, if they lose, Commanders 6th and Bucs take NFCS lead
beast (30-Dec) : Win or Loss, the NFCS is going down to week 18
Mucky Tundra (30-Dec) : if the Falcons win, how does that affect the overall NFC playoff picture? Does it mean that the NFC South comes down to week 18?
beast (30-Dec) : If Commanders win, the Packers drop to the 7th seed
beast (29-Dec) : Taylor still at it!
beast (29-Dec) : Colts get the ball and fumble turn over
packerfanoutwest (29-Dec) : Jets pull Aaron Rodgers for Tyrod Taylor
