}}The 1979 Green Bay Packers season was their 61st season overall and their 59th in the National Football League. The club posted a 5–11 record under coach Bart Starr, earning them a fourth-place finish in the NFC Central division. The offense was still one of the worst in the NFL and the defense could not pick up the slack finishing dead last against the Run. Only notable win Packers had was a 27-14 victory on Monday night against the New England Patriots OffseasonNFL Draft{{main article|1979 NFL Draft}}| Round | Pick | Player | Position | School/Club Team | | 1 | 15 | Eddie Lee Ivery | Running Back | Georgia Tech | | 2 | 44 | Steve Atkins | Running Back | Maryland | | 3 | 71 | Charles Johnson | Defensive Tackle | Maryland | | 6 | 153 | Dave Simmons | Linebacker | North Carolina | | 7 | 184 | Rich Wingo | Linebacker | Alabama | | 8 | 193 | Ron Cassidy | Wide Receiver | Utah State | | 9 | 235 | John Thompson | Tight End | Utah State | | 10 | 264 | Frank Lockett | Wide Receiver | Nebraska | | 11 | 290 | Mark Thorson | Defensive Back | Ottawa | | 12 | 318 | Bill Moats | Punter | South Dakota |

Standings{{1979 NFC Central standings}}Awards and records{{Empty section|date=July 2010}}In popular mediaThe Packers versus Bears game of week 15 was used in an episode of That '70s Show ("Street Fighting Man") and was part of the seventh season. Eric invites his father, Red, to the game at Lambeau Field. Oddly, the Packers win in this episode, as opposed to real life, where they lost.[1] References1. ^2004.E2.80.932005
