The Packers earned a 23-13 victory over the Cowboys, led by Jordan Love's two touchdowns and a strong first half.
The Green Bay Packers earned a 23-13 victory over the Dallas Cowboys, using a strong first half and timely scoring after halftime to protect their advantage. Green Bay led 17-0 at the break, putting Dallas in a difficult position. The Packers added six points in the second half, while Dallas scored 13, but the comeback never erased the early gap. The result moved Green Bay to 4-2 and left Dallas at 2-4. Green Bay scored seven points in the first quarter, 10 in the second, then three in each remaining quarter. Dallas was held scoreless through the first half, scored seven in the third quarter and added six in the fourth.
Quarterback Performances
Quarterback Jordan Love led the Packers’ passing attack, completing 23 of 41 attempts for 276 yards, one touchdown and one interception. He also contributed a rushing touchdown, giving him two total touchdowns in the game. Love’s passing production helped Green Bay establish its lead and gave the offense a steady option as it worked to manage the game and respond to Dallas’ second-half push. His interception was a blemish, but it did not prevent the Packers from finishing with the lead. Green Bay recorded one passing touchdown, one rushing touchdown and three field goals. That distribution allowed the Packers to keep adding points without reaching the end zone on every possession. In a game that tightened after halftime, the field goals helped maintain a cushion.
Dallas Cowboys' Struggles
Dallas quarterback Dak Prescott completed 34 of 54 passes for 258 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions. The Cowboys leaned heavily on the passing game, but the turnovers were costly while they tried to make up ground. Dallas did not score in either of the first two quarters, leaving the team trailing by 17 points at halftime. Prescott eventually threw a touchdown as the Cowboys found offense in the second half, but the rally came too late to put the Packers’ lead in serious danger. Dallas’ passing volume produced yards, yet the scoreboard reflected the challenge of turning those yards into points. With Green Bay adding to its total after the break, Dallas needed a more efficient start and fewer mistakes to make the matchup closer.
Rushing and Scoring Summary
The rushing leaders listed in the game summary were Pierre Strong Jr. for Green Bay and Javonte Williams for Dallas. The Packers paired contributions from their rushing game with Love’s passing, while Dallas sought balance around Prescott. The visible game summary does not provide full individual rushing totals, so those figures cannot be confirmed here. Green Bay’s 23 points came from touchdowns and field goals, while Dallas finished with 13. The Packers scored in all four quarters, contrasting with Dallas’ scoreless opening half. That difference shaped the matchup, even as the Cowboys began to narrow the deficit in the final two quarters.
Implications of the Result
For Green Bay, the win offers an important boost at 4-2. The Packers showed they could build a lead early and keep scoring when their opponent pushed back. Love’s 276 passing yards and two total touchdowns were central to the result, while three field goals supplied valuable points. The interception remains an area to clean up, but it did not undo the offense’s contribution. Defensively, limiting Dallas to 13 points and intercepting Prescott twice helped preserve the advantage. Those turnovers were especially significant because Dallas spent the second half chasing the game.
Dallas will need to address its slow start and improve its ability to convert passing production into points. Prescott threw for 258 yards, but his two interceptions and the 17-point halftime deficit made the task considerably harder. The Cowboys scored in the third and fourth quarters, showing a response after halftime, but Green Bay answered with points of its own and never surrendered the lead. The 23-13 final gives the Packers a victory built on a stronger opening half and steadier scoring throughout the game.
Green Bay leaves at 4-2, while Dallas drops to 2-4 and must look for a sharper start in its next outing again.
