Alongside their fellow NFC East opponents, the Dallas Cowboys line up against the NFC North, West and AFC North this season. Here’s a look at the toughest offensive players they will have to compete with in 2016.

QB – Aaron Rodgers, Green Bay Packers, Week 6

After failing to defeat a one legged Aaron Rodgers in the 2015 Playoffs, the Dallas Cowboys will be desperate for victory.

Rodgers is one of three Super Bowl winning quarterbacks the Cowboys will face this year – Eli Manning and Ben Roethlisberger the other two. Heading to Wisconsin in October won’t be a fun experience and given Rodgers success against the Cowboys this could be marked down as a loss already.

Having faced the Cowboys on six occasions, Rodgers has four victories to his name. With ten touchdowns and no interceptions. The Cowboys sacked Rodgers on 16 occasions in those games. It’s imperative they do so again for the team to have any chance in getting a surprise victory. The concern will undoubtedly be about where the sacks come from though.
