List of Green Bay Packers NFL All-Decade Team selections
The Green Bay Packers are a professional American football team based in Green Bay, Wisconsin. The Packers have competed in the National Football League (NFL) since 1921, two years after their original founding by Curly Lambeau and George Whitney Calhoun.[1] They are members of the North Division of the National Football Conference (NFC) and play their home games at Lambeau Field in central Wisconsin.[2][3]
In 1969, in recognition of the 50th anniversary of the NFL, the Pro Football Hall of Fame identified NFL All-Decade Teams for the first four decades of the history of the league (1920s, 1930s, 1940s and 1950s).[4] Players were selected based solely on their performance during the specified decade, with accomplishments before or after not considered. After each subsequent decade, a new team was identified, with the most recent being selected for the 2010s.[5] Each team was selected by the Pro Football Hall of Fame Selection Committee, which is primarily made up of national sportswriters. The Selection Committee is asked to select specific numbers of typical American football positions to develop the team.[4][6] From the 1920s to the 2000s, each team was split into first-team and second-team selections, although starting with the 2010s Team no distinction was made.[7] Additionally, although standard offensive, defensive and special teams positions were always included, the position names, types of positions and the number of positions did change from decade to decade.[4] As an example, for the 2010s Team, due to its greatly reduced usage, the fullback position was not included and a new "flex" offensive position was added.[8]
The Packers have had 45 players named to All-Decade Teams, with at least one player named to each of the 10 teams.[5] The 1960s Team included 13 Packers players, the most the Packers have had selected to one All-Decade Team, followed closely by the 1930s team and its 10 Packers.[5][9][10] The 1970s team only included one Packers player, Ted Hendricks, who only played one season in the 1970s for the Packers.[11] Of the 45 Packers named to All-Decade Teams, 28 have been inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame and 34 have been inducted into the Green Bay Packers Hall of Fame.[12][13] The most recent Packers selections were for the 2010s Team: Aaron Rodgers, Julius Peppers and Jahri Evans.[14]
