Dallas Cowboys at Green Bay Packers

Last Week: The Cowboys marched into Philadelphia last week and beat the Eagles in a close game. All the talk leading up to the game was about the beating the Eagles layed on the Boys at the end of last season and the Roy Williams – Tony Romo controversy. Widespread panic spread throughout the media that Romo and Williams were not on the same page. Against the Eagles there was some definite improvement Williams ended the day with 5 catches for 75 yards. So maybe this will not be the hot topic this week, however there is still work to be done, Tony threw a ball behind an open Roy Williams in the end zone Sunday.

This week the boys will travel up north to Lambeau Field and face a Packers team that lost to Tampa Bay on Sunday….ouch thats embarrassing. The game was in Tampa and the Packers don’t have anything that resembles an offensive line right now, but a loss to the Buccaneers?? What is even worse is the Bucs were wearing the awful jerseys from the era when they were a perennial doormat. This is the second year in a row that the Packers have been touted as a NFC power, but once again they are sitting at .500. The Packers are a nice team with an offense that has the potential to be one of the best in the league, but they have one huge problem, they can’t stop the pass rush.

For more info…..

However traveling up to the frozen tundra is never easy, but the Cowboys will match-up very well with the Packers. The Cowboys offense has enough weapons to get the job done running or passing the ball against just about any team in the league. The Packers defense is ranked 4th in the league giving up 282.9 yards per game which is usually the barometer used when measuring defenses, but when you look at points allowed per game the Packers are ranked 16th allowing 21.5 points per game. In my opinion points allowed per game is the stat that matters on gameday, and looking at this the Packers defense is middle of the road.

So to summarize the Packers would be a good team if that had an offensive line, but they don’t so it is my opinion that the Cowboys will terrorize Aaron Rodgers and the weather on Sunday is supposed to be 50 degrees with a chance of showers.
Prediction: Cowboys 17 Packers 10
