Start time, odds, injury report, and live game updates for the Packers vs. Cowboys wild-card matchup
In the last week of the regular season, the Dallas Cowboys emerged victorious in the NFC East. What is their next goal? Winning two postseason games would become a historical first since 1995.
One of the hottest teams in the NFL during the second part of the season is the Green Bay Packers, who will be their first opponent. Jordan Love’s debut season as the starting quarterback was capped off by Green Bay winning six of their final eight games and earning a wild-card berth.
On Fox, the teams will begin play on Sunday at 4:30 p.m. ET. Observe the following:
Dallas: The Cowboys won the NFC East for the second time in three years and finished 12-5 for the third straight season. Dallas won seven of their last nine games and topped the league in points scored per game (29.9). This season, the Cowboys were 11-1 against teams not in the playoffs and 3-4 against those opponents.
Green Bay: Following a 3-6 start, the Packers were written off as a postseason contender. However, they turned things around, winning six of their final eight games to secure the seventh spot with a 9-8 record. During that stretch, the Detroit Lions and Kansas City Chiefsโtwo teams headed for the playoffsโwere defeated. Jordan Love, the quarterback, comes in with an 18:1 touchdown-to-interception ratio over his previous eight contests.
