Green Bay Packers +2 at Dallas Cowboys<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n In what will be called the “marquee match-up” this Sunday, the Packers will go into Dallas.\u00a0 The Cowboys are 2-2 and still have yet to be a “good” team.\u00a0 The Packers standing at 3-1, may just be the brand of “good” that the Cowboys need to get a “W” against to prove to the world that they are still playoff contenders.\u00a0 The public’s money is going HEAVY on the Green Bay Packers here and this is why: 1. The last time the world saw the Packers play was on national television, making short work of the lowly Chicago Bears; and 2. The Aaron Rodgers-Factor.\u00a0 Rodgers is one of the most visible players in the NFL and if he is ever getting points, the public is quick to jump on it.\u00a0 Why shouldn’t they?\u00a0 I’ll tell you why.\u00a0 The Cowboys pose the same threat to the Packers as the Falcons did a few weeks ago.\u00a0 The Cowboys average rushing yards a game are right at what Green Bay allows (114 in comparison to 111) and as long as Prescott can complete intermediate passes against the zone coverage, which he does well, the Cowboys should have little resistance from the Pack.\u00a0 Of course, though, there is: the Aaron-Rodgers-Factor.\u00a0 And although he is off to another impressive start to the season, the Packers offense is painfully one dimensional.\u00a0 Go with the team at home, who people are doubting and have better balance on offense.<\/p>\n
