The Green Bay Packers have left the world in disbelief with their astonishing performance. Despite barely making it into the postseason, they completely outclassed the Dallas Cowboys, who were seeded second, in a thrilling showdown at AT&T Stadium, causing a major upset.
This remarkable victory by the Packers is set to etch their name into NFL history, as reported by Pro Football Talk.
“This will be the first time the seventh seed has won since the playoffs expanded to 14 teams in 2020.”
The Packers’ defense played a pivotal role in their triumph, making life difficult for Dak Prescott and the Cowboys’ offense. They managed to intercept Prescott twice during the game, including a pick-six in the first half. It could have been even more interceptions, but one pass was dropped by a Packers defender.
The offensive side of the Packers was equally impressive. Quarterback Jordan Love made an outstanding postseason debut, displaying remarkable accuracy by completing 16 out of 21 passes, resulting in an 80 percent completion rate. He threw for an impressive 272 yards, along with three touchdowns and zero interceptions, earning him a near perfect passer rating of 157.2.
Running back Aaron Jones was a force to be reckoned with on the ground, amassing an impressive 118 yards and scoring three touchdowns on 19 carries.
Green Bay ultimately ended up winning the game by a final score of 48-32. Now, they’ll head to San Francisco to take on the 49ers in the Division Round of the NFC playoff picture.
