Packers' quarterback Brett Favre was named the league's MVP for the third year in a row in 1997. Favre is the first and only player in the history of the award to win three MVPs consecutively. The Packers became the first team to have six NFL MVP award winners.
The 1997 Packers are one of only two teams in NFL history to win seven games against teams that would go on to make the playoffs.
