2. Dallas Cowboys at Green Bay Packers, Week 10, 4:25PM ET

This is going to be a highly anticipated game not just for Cowboys fans but for the entire NFL. Former Packers head coach, Mike McCarthy, heads back to Lambeau Field for the first time as the Cowboys head coach.

The last time Dallas played in Lambeau was in 2016 when they defeated the Packers 30-16 which was Dak Prescott and Ezekiel Elliott’s rookie year. Now, they get to meet the Packers again in Green Bay, which makes for easily one of the toughest games on the schedule.

Obviously, the return of Mike McCarthy will increase the hype for this game. He won a Super Bowl with the Packers in 2010, and since he was fired, Green Bay has been unable to make it back to the big game.

Luckily for the Cowboys, this game is coming off their Week 9 bye week. So, they should be plenty rested and prepared to play an NFC powerhouse. Prescott vs Aaron Rodgers sells itself, and whenever these two teams meet it is always a highly competitive game. I expect nothing different for this Week 10 showdown.
