The 2006 Green Bay Packers season was the franchise's 88th season overall and their 86th in the National Football League (NFL).
This season resulted in an 8–8 record. After the firing of Mike Sherman,[1] the Packers hired Mike McCarthy as their head coach.[2] 2006 would be McCarthy's first year as head coach. The Packers improved from 4–12 the previous year to a .500 win average in 2006. The Packers were effectively eliminated from playoff contention for the second straight year after the New York Giants gained the decisive tie-breaker over the Packers in the last week of the 2006 NFL season.
