1982 Green Bay Packers season

The 1982 Green Bay Packers season was their 64th season overall and their 62nd season in the National Football League (NFL), and was shortened due to a players’ strike. The team posted a 5–3–1 record under coach Bart Starr. Due to the strike, the NFL ignored division standing and placed eight teams from each conference into the playoffs. The Packers finished the season in third place, which earned them a playoff berth. The Packers beat the St. Louis Cardinals 41–16 in the first round, but lost to the Dallas Cowboys 37–26 in the second. Their playoff berth was the first for the Packers in ten seasons, their first playoff win in the post-Vince Lombardi era, and their only playoff win between 1968 and 1992. Additionally, the game against the Cardinals was their first home playoff game since the Super Bowl season of 1967.

The strike caused two side effects for the Packers' schedule, as both games in the Bears–Packers rivalry were cancelled, defaulting the Lions–Packers rivalry to being the longest-running annual series in the league. Only one regular season home game was played at Lambeau Field, with the remaining three regular-season home games in Milwaukee at County Stadium on a field which had already taken much heavier than usual abuse due to the Brewers' World Series run, although the playoff game against the Cardinals was at Lambeau.
