The game would be getting little attention if McCarthy wasn’t returning to Green Bay for the first time since he was fired. The Packers have stunk so far this season and are riding a four game losing streak. However, their fan base and their team should be pretty revved up at Lambeau for McCarthy’s return. The Cowboys better show up ready to play.

They can beat GB. But the Cowboys have to take an early lead and force GB to pass. If GB is able to run the ball and dink and dunk GB could easily win.

This is the kind of game cowboys teams typically lose.

But I think this team is going to embarrasse GB and it's going to be fun.

The biggest thing is staying healthy, keeping things fresh and not peaking too early....

4 more wins and we're in the playoffs...

The team that wins this game has the best historical winning percentage in the NFL.

This season started out with Green Bay having the best won/loss percentage in the NFL and the Cowboys ranked #2, but just a few games behind. Now the Cowboys are #1 but a loss to the Packers would put them back at #2 once again.

By the way, the Patriots are #3 but about 20 games behind the Packers and Cowboys. In my opinion, they had their shot but couldn't quite make it. It's all over now,

I'm focusing on our defense this game. Yeah it's Aaron Rodgers the cowboy killer but he doesn't have his best weapon Devante Adams. I'm looking for this defense to make a statement.

It's a ratings getter with of course THE supreme TV ratings getter Dallas Cowboys leading the chase .... and an hall of famer in Aaron Rodgers

Oh, I am sure the media is salivating over this one for ratings. The Cowboys killer Rodgers against his former head coach in MM back in Green Bay. Yeah, this one has "juicy" written all over it.

You'd like to believe that McCarthy is going to get this team hyped up for this one. Would be a great win, despite the Packers struggles, to inject some confidence into this team. No doubt the team would like to give their coach a W in Lambeau.

Our defensive line needs to assist Aaron Rodgers in planning the time of his retirement. It needs to be after this season.

Hopefully Micah and company can, somehow, persuade him that this would be his proper decision.

Currently the forecast for the game is 43* and partially sunny and a little windy.

Keep in mind DST changes which means it will get colder earlier during the game.

Bad weather for Prescott even if the snow holds off. The only time Dak won in GB was an unseasonably warm mid October day in the 70s.

I have been seeing FOX advertising Cowboys vs Green Bay, nothing unusual about that but 2 weeks out? Fox seems to be looking for a big rating hit for this game. I don't recall any time where a game that is this far out getting attentions.

43 and sunny is a beautiful fall day and great football weather...

I know this is a childish sentiment, but.....

I hope Dallas stomps a mudhole in their arses and walks it dry.

That they remember the day they played the Cowboys. Leave no doubt.

If we are going to stumble, Lambeau could be where it happens. But we play the Vikings next. I'll worry about their purple arses first....

I’ve been thinking the same thing every time I see the commercial advertising the game.

This will be a top viewed game.
