Gutekunst, Packers Determined To Win Another Title With Aaron Rodgers

Hall of Fame quarterbacks don’t grow on trees. Packers fans old enough to remember the team’s struggles in the 1970s and 1980s understand that only too well. From the time Bart Starr retired after the 1971 season until the time Brett Favre arrived in 1992, the Packers went more than two decades without a Hall of Fame signal caller. Over that period, the Packers had only one quarterback earn Pro Bowl honors and that was Don Majkowski in 1989. They also made the playoffs only twice during that time with one of them coming in the strike-shortened 1982 season which saw 16 teams make the playoffs.
