For Dallas Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy, there will be a familiar jersey on the opposite sideline for the Wild Card game.

The Green Bay Packers (who McCarthy led to 125 wins in 13 years) will be in Dallas on Sunday and some history will be made.

This marks the first time that the NFL's top two in passing touchdowns will meet in the first round.

So don't miss out on the playoffs. Make sure you've got the right gear and the right streaming service. If you don't, there's no need to worry. We've got your back.

Player name and number tees are a great option in lieu of a jersey, but you could also rock the new NFC East champs shirts from Nike.

Are The Dallas Cowboys Legit?

Dallas is the no. 2 seed in the NFC after taking the NFC East back from Philadelphia in the final two weeks of the regular season.

Dak Prescott led the NFL in touchdown passes (36). CeeDee Lamb had the best receiving season in franchise history.

The Cowboys have won 16-straight games at home.

So, yeah, we're going to say they're legit.
