GREEN BAY, Wis. — Before kickoff, Mike McCarthy celebrated his return to Lambeau Field with hugs, laughter and back-claps. The Dallas Cowboys head coach and his former quarterback Aaron Rodgers convened at midfield, sharing another exchange just as warmups ended.
A chance to pile on immediately followed, with Cowboys defensive end DeMarcus Lawrence strip-sacking Rodgers and safety Jayron Kearse recovering to set up Dallas in the red zone. Instead, Prescott missed Lamb in the middle of the end zone and Packers safety Rudy Ford intercepted the pass and returned it 34 yards. Four plays later, Rodgers sailed a 58-yard arc into the hands of Watson. The connection marked Rodgers’ longest completion of the season and Watson’s first score of his career.
Again, Ford caught a target intended for Lamb — this one not even getting Lamb’s attention initially. Again, Ford returned the gift 34 yards. And running back Aaron Jones scored the go-ahead touchdown to make it 14-7, complete with a grab-your-reproductive-organ celebration. Dallas’ special teams forced and recovered a punt-return fumble, Tony Pollard eluded more tacklers along a 13-yard path to the end zone, and Prescott and Lamb regained synchrony en route to a 31-yard touchdown.
The Cowboys failed to score in the fourth quarter or overtime as the Packers ripped off 17 unanswered points. Dallas went for it on fourth-and-3 from the Green Bay 35 but the Packers' pass rush forced an incompletion.
