NFL: Packers And Cowboys Meeting Lead To The First Tie Of The Season
"The Packers took advantage of the weak Dallas defense right away. On their first third down of the night, Green Bay quarterback Jordan Love connected with rookie wideout Matthew Golden for a 46-yard pickup, the longest play of his young career. A few downs later, Romeo Doubs caught a two-yard touchdown pass in the end zone for a 7-0 advantage. Following an exchange of punts, the Cowboys took over on offense deep in their own territory."
"Near the start of the second quarter, a Jordan Love interception was canceled out by a too-many-men-on-the-field penalty on the Cowboys, which gave the Packers a fresh set of downs at Dallas' 33. From there, Jordan Love threw a backwards pass to running back Josh Jacobs, who took the ball 28 yards to the Dallas one yard line. On the next play, Love found Romeo Doubs for his second touchdown of the night."
Green Bay settled for a 34-yard field goal as time expired to tie Dallas 40-40. The Packers attacked early, highlighted by a 46-yard Jordan Love pass to rookie Matthew Golden and two Romeo Doubs touchdown receptions. A late-second-quarter sequence saw a Love interception wiped out by a Cowboys penalty, leading to a Josh Jacobs 28-yard run and another Doubs TD, while a blocked extra point was returned for a defensive two-point play. Penalties were a major factor, with both teams combining for 18 infractions for 148 yards. Dallas finally responded late in the half with a short-yardage touchdown scramble by Dak Prescott.
