Beware of a wounded team. The Packers are in desperation mode and they still have Aaron Rodgers so we better be ready to play! Playing at Lambeau hasn’t been real kind to the Cowboys over the decades. I’m seeing a lot of Cowboys fans getting overly confident about this game. You can end up getting burned that way, but most fans live in the moment. Don’t get me wrong, I like our chances but this matchup makes me very nervous. Packers fans are going to be revved up for McCarthy’s return.

The only specific postgame update came from Aaron Jones, who said X-rays were negative.

"A little sore," Jones said after the game. "I was fine. They sent me for X-rays. X-rays were fine but they decided to hold me [out]. It was frustrating because I felt like I could have went but they were being smart. I definitely respect them because after I stopped moving around and I sat still for a while, it got kind of sore. I respect them."

Their All-Pro LT is still banged up too.

Left tackle David Bakhtiari's balky knee flared up after the first half, and he played only on the final series of the second half.

I strongly believe we will win. Then again, I also saw ARod beat on one leg so who knows.

Packers are absolutely awful. Only way we lose to them is if the team doesn’t take this week seriously. I know Aaron Rodgers is a mythical figure but I can’t overstate how trash the Packers are this year.

The manner in which way we prepare this week will depend on how much our players TRULY respect Mike McCarthy.

Coach Mac wants this one BADLY. Things didn’t end well for him in Green Bay and the issues between him and Rodgers were well-documented.
