Packers beat Cowboys in National Football League thriller

The man has made his mark, and he’s never not going to diminish anything that LeBron James or Aaron Rodgers accomplish.

Bad choice. After an Aaron Rodgers interception late in the third quarter, Prescott did exactly what he’s done all year: Ignored the pressure and scored points.

“We’re just going to enjoy this game, enjoy the heck out of it”, Rodgers said in a postgame interview. “That shows the true character of this team”.

Crosby’s first 51-yard field goal attempt was good but did not count, because Cowboys coach Jason Garrett had called timeout just prior to the snap.

“Usually after a game, I don’t feel beat up”, a smiling Crosby said on Monday.

When the Cowboys got the ball on the ensuing drive, they marched down the field and quickly found themselves closing in in field goal range. The Bills lone goal should be to win a Super Bowl and you have to do much better at quarterback than what the Bills have. The kick was set up by a Jared Cook 35-yard reception as he was sliding out of bounds. An instant replay review confirmed the catch.

“I saw him rolling to the right it was underneath coverage in front of me”, Cook said.

Now that Prescott has a top-notch season as a starter and proved his playoff worth, the Cowboys’ window to win looks like Pittsburgh’s did when Ben Roethlisberger went 15-1 in his rookie year, but lost in the playoffs.

The Dallas Cowboys (13-3) take on the Green Bay Packers (10-6) in a clash of two historic franchises that share a combined nine Super Bowl titles.

The Green Bay Packers are a step closer to the Super Bowl after beating the Dallas Cowboys 34-31 in the dying moments of the National Football League playoff in Texas.

“We got the win”, he said. “I know we are now after that second half”.

First, Crosby hit a 56-yard field goal to give the Packers a 31-28 lead with under two minutes left. The Cowboys defense was all sorts of confused on this play.

That was Elliott’s fourth straight 100-yard game and his career-high output until he rumbled for 159 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the next-to-last game of the regular season. A screen to Ty Montgomery put the Green Bay Packers at the 42-yard line when a sack pushed them back to the 32. But the Dallas Cowboys returned with their own clutch drive, with Dan Bailey responding with a 52-yard field goal. But both did their part.

Prescott threw for 302 yards and three touchdowns with an interception, and Elliott had 125 yards rushing. Green Bay’s defense is injured and vulnerable, and it will likely surrender multiple touchdowns to the Packers.
