The Dallas Cowboys were front-runners in the N.F.C. for virtually the entire season, while the Green Bay Packers had to fight for a playoff spot following a 4-6 start. But in the first half of this divisional round matchup, it was the Cowboys trying to catch up with the Packers. Green Bay raced to a 21-3 lead, but went into halftime up 21-13 after Dallas made adjustments late in the half.
While fans of defense may not have had much to enjoy from either team, the offenses provided plenty of highlights. Aaron Rodgers played the wily veteran, and Dak Prescott showed that he was capable of fireworks even when trying to overcome a large deficit.
