Who Played Last Night in the NFL?
If you’re a football fan, you probably want to know who played last night in the NFL. Luckily, we have all the information you need right here.
Introduction
The National Football League (NFL) is a professional American football league consisting of 32 teams, divided equally between the National Football Conference (NFC) and the American Football Conference (AFC). The NFL is one of the four major professional sports leagues in North America, and the highest professional level of American football in the world.
Green Bay Packers
The Green Bay Packers are a professional American football team based in Green Bay, Wisconsin. The Packers compete in the National Football League (NFL) as a member club of the league’s National Football Conference (NFC) North division. It is the third-oldest franchise in the NFL, dating back to 1919, and is the only non-profit, community-owned major league professional sports team based in the United States. Home games have been played at Lambeau Field since 1957.
The Packers are the last of the “small town teams” which were common in the NFL during the league’s early days of 1920–1930. Founded in 1919 by Earl “Curly” Lambeau and George Whitney Calhoun, the franchise traces its lineage to other semi-professional teams common in that era, such as the Acme Packing Company and Nichols’ Owls. These teams were variously sponsored by businesses and organizations throughout Wisconsin and southeastern Wisconsin, including factories, social clubs, and commercial establishments. The success of these localized teams eventually led to a more formal arrangement by which the APFA awarded franchises to suitable groups throughout the country.
Chicago Bears
The Chicago Bears played the Green Bay Packers last night in a losing effort. The final score was 21-13 in favor of the Packers.
Detroit Lions
The Detroit Lions are a professional American football team based in Detroit, Michigan. They are members of the North Division of the National Football Conference (NFC) in the National Football League (NFL), and play their home games at Ford Field in Downtown Detroit.
Minnesota Vikings
The Minnesota Vikings are a professional American football team based in Minneapolis, Minnesota. The Vikings joined the National Football League (NFL) as an expansion team in 1960, and first took the field for the 1961 season. The team competes in the National Football Conference (NFC) North division.
