Cowboys take 17-6 lead into halftime

GREEN BAY – The Cowboys drove 97 yards for a touchdown in the final minute of the first half to take a 17-6 lead over the Packers at halftime on Sunday at Lambeau Field.

The Packers caught a huge break as the second quarter began. Facing third-and-12 from the Dallas 48, QB Aaron Rodgers found no one open and was sacked, but LB Justin Durant was flagged for grabbing Rodgers’ facemask, giving Green Bay a first down.

The drive stalled 2 yards short of the next first down, though, and K Mason Crosby made his second field goal of the game, a 43-yarder to make it 7-6 with 12:16 left in the half.
