The 1988 Green Bay Packers season was their 70th season overall and their 68th in the National Football League (NFL). Before the season began, the team hired Lindy Infante to be their head coach. Unable to improve on their 5âÂÂ9âÂÂ1 record from 1987, the Packers instead went 4âÂÂ12 for their third consecutive losing season, as well as their sixth consecutive non-winning season, and failed to qualify for the playoffs for the sixth consecutive season. Because the Packers played 2 games against the Lions and lost both of them, even though they both went 4âÂÂ12, the Packers were actually a weaker team than the Lions, thus putting the Packers fifth and last in the NFC Central.
