Packers defeat Colts at Lambeau to become first franchise with 800 wins

One of the NFL’s oldest franchises made history Sunday in the cozy atmosphere of Lambeau Field.

The Green Bay Packers defeated the Indianapolis Colts 16-10 on Sunday to record their 800th victory.

The win came in quarterback Malik Willis’ first career start for the Packers. Willis started in place of the injured Jordan Love and Green Bay relied on a run-heavy approach to get the W. Josh Jacobs rushed 32 times for 151 yards and Matt LaFleur’s team totaled 261 yards on the ground.

Green Bay (1-1) became the first club to reach the milestone, improving the franchise’s record to 800-599-38. Behind the Pack in second place on the all-time wins list are the Chicago Bears, who enter Sunday night’s game with a record of 794-634-42.

The Packers are in their 104th season, having debuted in 1921 as part of the American Professional Football Association. They are the third-oldest team in the NFL, behind only the Bears (originally the Decatur Staleys) and the Arizona Cardinals (originally the Chicago Cardinals).
