Three Reasons Why Packers Will Beat Cowboys in Wild-Card Game
The Dallas Cowboys are heavy favourite to beat the Green Bay Packers in a wild-card playoff game on Sunday. Here is why the Packers will pull off the big upset.
GREEN BAY, Wis. – The Green Bay Packers stormed into the playoffs by winning three consecutive games, but they haven’t played anyone like the Dallas Cowboys.
The Cowboys finished 12-5, including 8-0 at home. They finished first in scoring, including 37.4 points in home games. They’ve got an MVP candidate at quarterback with Dak Prescott, the NFL’s leading receiver in CeeDee Lamb and a game-wrecking defender in Micah Parsons.
As seven-point underdogs at Fan Duel Sportsbook (it opened at eight), there are plenty of reasons why the Packers will lose.
Here are three reasons why they’ll win.
Jordan Love will be making his playoff debut. He’s on one of those Aaron Rodgers-esque rolls with 18 touchdowns vs. one interception over the final eight games. In three must-win games to end the regular season, Love delivered seven touchdown passes (plus two touchdown runs), zero interceptions and almost 800 passing yards.
