From Lambeau to Lombardi, Holmgren, McCarthy and LaFleur and from Starr to Favre, Rodgers and now Jordan Love we’re talking Super Bowl Champion Green Bay Packers football. This Packers Forum is the place to talk NFL football and everything Packers. So, pull up a keyboard, make yourself at home and let’s talk some Packers football.
The Green Bay Packers (3-6) return from a three-game road stretch to play the Dallas Cowboys (6-2) at Lambeau Field this Sunday.
It will be the first time former Packers head coach Mike McCarthy returns to Lambeau Field and the first time Green Bay will play against its former coach.
Green Bay is 20-17 against the Cowboys (including postseason) and has won three in a row and eight of the last nine.
It is the first meeting between the two teams since 2019, a 34-24 Green Bay victory in Week 5 at Dallas.
The Packers have scored 34-plus points in five of those contests, including each of the last three. The Packers are the first team to score 34-plus points in three straight games against the Cowboys since the Philadelphia Eagles in 2001-02.
Including the postseason, it will be the eighth matchup between the two franchises in 10 years (2013-2022).
Green Bay is 11-5 at home against the Cowboys (including playoffs).
The two teams last played in Green Bay in 2016.
Out of the last 16 regular-season meetings between the two, 14 have been decided by 10-plus points. The two contests decided by single digits were a 35-31 win by the Packers in 2017 and a 37-36 Green Bay victory at Dallas in 2013.
Green Bay will play on Thursday in Week 11, hosting the Tennessee Titans. The Packers have won six of the last eight games they have played on Thursday night, including both of the last two.

If ya never experienced losing I guess it can be a traumatic experience at first.
not sure what I'd give to be at the game with double O and Ringo, but I know I'll be thinking of them as I watch us play the Cowboys Sunday, win or lose I know both will cheer on the team as I will, have a great time you guys, tip a beer for me, GO PACK GO

Yoop, I'm pretty sure all of us here are old enough to remember the losing seasons of 2005, 2008, 2017, and 2018.
This season is by far the worst though. 2005 team just didn't have talent to do any better. 2008 was a transition year, new QB, lousy D that needed to be overhauled. 2017 starting QB missed half the season. 2018 your HC hits a wall, it happens. Those are all pretty valid reasons for losing.
2022 has no valid reasons. And no, this is nothing like 2005, Adrian Klemm and Junius Coston would be firmly on the bench even for this team and its musical chairs at OL. Talent issue is nothing like 2005.

those where like apprenticeship courses to ready us for the dark ages of the past
I do remember those seasons well Starks, last 2 are recent, but like then this can be quickly remedied imo, little health, a little more experience and we can be right back to the 20 and 21 team
this is the worst OL situation in many years, along with the worst receiver group too, and we have a very stubborn DC, a OC with only 5 years of coaching at this level, this team would obviously go through growing pains, it became worse as the injury's pilled up.

I freaking loved that guy. At some point he will get his time in the Packers Hall of Fame like he deserves. And he is roughly 2 plays away from being an NFL Hall of Famer.
