Packers vs. Cowboys Player Props
Overall numbers may lead you to believe that Dallas is a juggernaut on par with the likes of San Francisco and Baltimore – but that simply is not the case. The Cowboys finished the regular season ranked first in scoring and fifth in total yardage while on the defensive side of the ball, they ranked fifth in both of those categories.
However, the Cowboys’ numbers are heavily inflated by running up the score in matchups against inferior opponents. In their seven matchups against playoff teams, the Cowboys yielded a rather lackluster record of 3-4 and averaged less than 23 points per game. In their other 10 matchups, they posted a record of 9-1 and averaged a whopping 35 points per game.
Dak Prescott is finally beginning to look like his old self again, too. After throwing an interception in just 4-of-13 contests to open the campaign, Prescott closed the regular season with an interception in three of his last four contests – which feels like a return to normalcy given that he led the league in interceptions last year despite starting just 12 games.

The Packers have been on quite the roller coaster in Jordan Love’s first full season. Initially, it seemed like the Pack might’ve been dead on arrival as they stumbled out to a frustrating 3-6 skid, averaging 20 points or less in seven of those affairs.
However, Green Bay transformed into a completely different team during the back half of the season. The Packers closed their campaign with an impressive 6-2 run to sneak into the playoffs as the seventh seed, which is primarily thanks to their young, talented offense averaging over 25 points per game down the stretch. They cleared the 27-point mark in four of their last eight contests.
After falling short of 250 passing yards in six of seven games to open the season, Love closed the regular season with performances of 250-plus yards in seven of the Packers’ last nine contests while crossing the 265-yard passing mark in six of those affairs.
Packers vs. Cowboys
CeeDee Lamb has garnered a ton of praise for the success of the Cowboys’ aerial attack, and rightfully so. Lamb leads Cowboys pass-catchers in all major categories by a wide margin, averaging 103 receiving yards on 7.9 catches per game – the next man up in the pecking order trails by more than 50 yards.
Because of Lamb’s success, the continued emergence of second-year TE Jake Ferguson has been slightly overshadowed. Ferguson has recorded 44-plus receiving yards on four-plus receptions in five of the Cowboys’ last six contests. He's cleared the 69-yard mark in half of those outings.
I’ll back Ferguson to keep it going against a Packers secondary that ranks 20th in yards allowed per pass attempt and 18th in yards allowed per completion.
