Packers Face Cowboys in Wild-Card Game: Love and Prescott in Spotlight

Despite Cowboys' Favorable Odds, Packers' Offensive Line and Love's Performance Could Tip the Scales

  • Green Bay Packers, led by first-year starting quarterback Jordan Love, face the Dallas Cowboys in a wild-card game, with the Cowboys favored to win.
  • Packers' Love has been impressive, ranking third among quarterbacks in EPA per Play and second in Completion Percentage Over Expected in the second half of the season.
  • Cowboys' Dak Prescott finished the regular season leading the league with 36 touchdowns and recorded the third 4,000-yard season of his career.
  • Cowboys' defense, despite being elite in pass defense, is vulnerable against passes across the middle and deep down the field.
  • Packers' offensive line has been superb in pass blocking, ranking sixth in PFF’s pass-blocking grades, and Love is among the league’s least-sacked quarterbacks.
