2. Aaron Rodgers, Green Bay, Week 10

In his career, Aaron Rodgers has a record of 5-3 against the Cowboys in the regular season. That might not sound terrible until you realize the first two wins came early in Rodgers’ career with Dallas winning in 2007 and 2008 against the Packers.

Since then, they have just one win, which came in 2016 which was the rookie season for both Prescott and Ezekiel Elliott. And as most of us remember, Rodgers got his revenge that year when he knocked the Cowboys out of the playoffs.

Speaking of the postseason, Dallas has now lost to Rodgers twice, including the infamous “Dez caught it” game in January of 2015. Throw all that together and the back-to-back NFL MVP has been a major thorn in the side of the Cowboys for quite some time.

Dallas head coach Mike McCarthy knows Rodgers well, considering he coached him for several years in Green Bay. The two even won Super Bowl XLV together after the 2010 season — a game that was played in AT&T Stadium.

This time, the meeting will take place in Green Bay in Week 10. It’s still going to be an early November game, so while it might be cold, the field shouldn’t be completely frozen just yet. Still, the Cowboys will have their hands full just trying to stop Rodgers.
