Dallas is staring down a 2-4 record in their division, and Dak Prescott’s recent interception spree is painting a grim picture for the Cowboys as Jordan Love just punched in a rushing touchdown, extending the Green Bay Packers’ lead to 17-0 in their Sunday night matchup. Love’s score was his first rushing TD since 2024.

Dallas Can’t Get Out Of Their Own Way In The First Half

The Packers have absolutely dominated the first half of this game. It’s not just the score, it’s how Dallas is playing. They punted on their first two drives, which is bad enough, but then they threw interceptions on their next two. You can’t win football games like that. Their offense is stuck in neutral, only managing five first downs, 107 total yards, and a dismal 21 rushing yards in the entire first half. On top of all that, they’re shooting themselves in the foot with seven penalties for 68 yards. It’s a mess out there for the Cowboys.

Dak Prescott’s Interception Woes Are Hitting A New Low

This isn’t just a bad half for Dallas. Their struggles go back further than this Sunday night. Going back to their game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, the Cowboys have now been outscored 34-6 in the past four quarters. That’s a brutal trend. For Dak Prescott, it’s an alarming pattern: he’s now thrown multiple interceptions in back-to-back games, something he hasn’t done since October of 2024. You can practically see the season slipping away from them right now.

If the Cowboys can’t pull off a miracle comeback and win this one, they’re going to fall to 2-4 in the division. Meanwhile, the Packers are looking good to move to 4-2. The stakes are clear: Dallas needs to figure out how to stop the bleeding, and fast, or this season could get ugly even quicker.
