PACKERS HOST BRONCOS FOR THE FIRST TIME SINCE 2003

• The Packers return home after a two-game road trip to host the Denver Broncos today at Lambeau Field, the first meeting between the clubs in Green Bay since 2003.
• For only the ninth time in the past 50 seasons, the Packers are off to a 3-0 start, one of only three teams in the league with an undefeated record entering today. It is just the second 3-0 start for Green Bay in the past 10 seasons (2007).
• Green Bay is coming off back-to-back road wins at Carolina and Chicago, which brought the Packers' mark in September road games under Head Coach Mike McCarthy to 8-2 (.800). That winning percentage ranks No. 1 in the league since 2006.
• Including playoffs, the Packers enter today's contest on a nine-game winning streak, the team's longest since a nine-game streak in 1996-97.
• Today's game against the Broncos is the lone scheduled 3:15 p.m. contest at Lambeau Field this season, although three noon games later this season are eligible to be moved under the NFL's flexible scheduling.
• Green Bay is undefeated in the series with Denver in games played in Wisconsin (4-0-1). This will be the fourth meeting between the clubs at Lambeau Field (1993, 1996, 2003).
  HOME SWEET HOME

• Today's contest at Lambeau Field will be the first in front of the home crowd since the Packers opened the season vs. New Orleans on Sept. 8.
• Green Bay has won six straight contests at Lambeau Field and 12 of its last 13 at home.
• The Packers' 12-1 home mark since Week 10 of 2009 ranks No. 2 in the NFL over that span behind only New England (12-0).
• Green Bay has a 27-8 (.771) record in its last 35 regular-season games at Lambeau Field, a record that ranks No. 3 in the NFL and No. 1 in the NFC over that span.
• The Packers will be looking to extend their regular-season home winning streak to seven games today, which would be the longest home streak of Head Coach Mike McCarthy's tenure. It would also be the longest streak since Green Bay posted an 11-game winning streak at Lambeau from 2001-02.
  1961 TEAM TO BE HONORED

• Today's game will feature halftime introductions of 18 players from the Packers' 1961 championship team, here celebrating the 50th anniversary of that title season.
