One of the critical points of discussion was the potential for the Cowboys’ offense to shine against the Packers’ defense, led by Joe Barry. While the Packers’ defense has shown signs of improvement in recent weeks as they’ve gotten some players back, there’s a notable concern. Jaire Alexander, a crucial piece of their defense, did not practice, raising questions about his availability.
Sharp warned against drawing too many conclusions from the Packers’ recent defensive success, as they faced quarterbacks who struggled to push the ball downfield and lacked options. He pointed out that quarterbacks like Tommy DeVito, Baker Mayfield, and Bryce Young had success against the Packers earlier in the season, highlighting their vulnerabilities.
When it comes to handling pressure, Dak Prescott has been stellar this season, ranking as the best quarterback against pressure in the NFL. The Cowboys’ offensive staff has equipped him with effective quick-game strategies and the ability to use his legs to handle pressure. Sharp expressed confidence that Prescott would continue to excel in this area, even if the Packers generated pressure.

One intriguing subplot in the game is the coaching decisions, particularly from Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy. With his job potentially on the line, his choices in key situations could be pivotal. Will he continue to play aggressively, going for it on fourth downs, or will he opt for conservative decisions that could prove costly?
The Cowboys vs. Packers game promises to be a thrilling matchup, with Dak Prescott and the Cowboys’ offense facing off against the Packers’ defense. With a 7.5-point spread, bettors will be watching closely to see if the Cowboys can exploit the Packers’ defensive vulnerabilities and secure a convincing victory. As Warren Sharp emphasized, the Packers’ struggles against quarterbacks this season could bode well for a Cowboys offensive explosion.
