Green Bay took revenge in January 2011. Aaron Rodgers threw for 366 yards and three touchdowns, and the Packers scored 28 points in the second quarter alone on the way to a Super Bowl XLV title.

Does home field decide Falcons vs Packers games?
Usually, yes. Hosts have won 25 of the 37 meetings, about 68 percent. Atlanta owns a 12 to 6 record at home in this series, and Green Bay leads 13 to 6 in its own building.
That split makes the Falcons’ September 2026 win more unusual than it looked on the scoreboard. It was only the sixth time Atlanta has won in Green Bay. If you are sizing up any future meeting, treat the host as your starting point.
What are the biggest wins and most memorable games?
- Packers 56, Falcons 3 (1966): the series opener and its largest margin.
- Falcons 47, Packers 41 in overtime (1983): the highest scoring game in series history.

Is Falcons vs Packers a true rivalry?
Not in the traditional sense. The Falcons play in the NFC South and the Packers in the NFC North, so you rarely see them meet. Since 2020 they have played only three times.
What makes this series special is the playoff drama and the even record. Atlanta has matched Green Bay’s postseason wins despite a far smaller trophy case, and the Falcons have won the last two regular season meetings. Both teams have also punished each other at the worst possible moment, which is why fans remember these games long after the scores fade.
