can the packers beat the cowboys this week?

Aaron Rodgers did very well in both games, especially against the lions, even though they aren't very good. They have good wide recievers, and they have a really good defense. They got 3 interceptions against the lions, even if those were all at the end. They have the ability to make the defensive plays and get points on the board. If it's a close game, the packer defense will get the ball and give it to Rodgers to try and score some points.

I knoW the cowboys are favored to win the game, and anything can happen in the NFL, so do you think the packers have a nice shot to win next week?

Thnks.

    I am a die-hard cowboys fan, and have been for my whole life, but as you said, anything can happen in the NFL. I think that the packers do stand a good chance of winning the game if they can get legitimate pressure on Tony Romo. The packers will most likely be able to put pressure on Romo with kampman and the rest of their D-line, which is among the best pass rushing units in the league. Another deciding factor in the game will be which cowboys defense decides to show up. If the defense from the first half of yesterday's eagles game shows up then the Packers will be in a great position to win the game. However, if the Cowboys defense from the second half of yesterday's game shows up, then the game will be a much lower-scoring affair in which I believe the Cowboys will win. The Cowboys defense will also have to limit the penalties as these were very costly in the game yesterday. My game prediction is: Cowboys 28, Packers 24. (I reserve the right to change my prediction if the packers win, ;) ) Hope i helped.

    It will be a tough game. Both teams have weaknesses. I'm a Packers fan and will admit that they have some severe exploitable weaknesses. So do the Cowboys, whether Cowboys fans want to acknowledge it or not. The Packers will give up some yards on defense but also have a knack for turnovers. The key to this game is ball control and penalties. The team that commits the most turnovers and penalties will likely lose this game. That's the way it goes when two really good teams are playing. The Packers have been committing a lot of penalties but few turnovers, while the Cowboys have been committing fewer penalties but more turnovers.

    Cowboys fans love to rave about T.O. but they need to realize that the Packers Greg Jennings is a real threat. He is actually leading the NFL in receiving yards at this point. He has a tendency to make DBs look like a joke. His moves are so good defenders actually fall down trying to pursue or cover him. The Cowboys know this all so well from last year. Greg Jennings is the most dangerous WR in the NFL with the ball in his hands. I think the Pack comes out on top by about 3 points, but really it could go either way. Both teams will score near or over 30 points. Their offenses are just that explosive.

  • The Cowboys will have two tough tests in a row with the Eagles tomorrow and the Packers next Sunday Night.

    Believe it or not, I think the Cowboys would have a better chance of beating the Packers next week if they should lose Monday Night. They will not drop both games.

    I know Dallas haters hate to hear it, but the Cowboys have the most talented team in the NFL this year. They just have to finish in the postseason. (I know, no playoff wins in 12 years. What does this have to do with the Cowboys now?? Most of the players have only been there a couple of years. This is only Tony Romo's second full season as a starter).

  • If the Packers bring their a-game, then yes they can win. I think it will be a tough battle for both teams next week. Most of how the Packers will play will depend on the air-head head coach and what he calls.

    Aaron went in for an injured Favre last season in Dallas and brought them back even though they lost.

    I am not saying for certain which team will win, but it will be close and one of the best games of the season.

    they are in a position to triumph over the packers. romo i think of is greater cellular than favre now that favre is older and romo by some ability purely is regular with a thank you to get issues executed. As a giants fan, have confidence me, he can manage the packers. then comes the pats. no way. the pats will kill you with their offense and protection and after seeing the cowboys interior the beginning up of the season im not one hundred% advantageous with their d. and the colts could win in a particular one. it particularly is a robust matchup yet after final week peyton is indignant and he found out from his errors and he could verify he didnt make stupid errors and if he doesnt make errors then the protection of the cowboys could be lifeless

    I'm gonna go ahead and say yes and just because what you said. Defense is good and can get some pick offs and give it to O, Aaron needs to keep what he's doing and they should win.

    EDIT: No doubt it will be tough I think it's 50/50 shot better plays will decide this.

    yes they can. Packers are one of the hottest and most underrated teams coming in to the season. If they beat the boys, they will be the team to beat for the NFC. I think it will be a test for them though.

    Brett Favre could not beat the BOYS not the Packers AND yes they will win cause they have the home field.
