Game notes: The Lions enter off a needed bye week after a 29-0 embarrassment in New England. Awaiting them are the Cowboys and the return of quarterback Dak Prescott (broken right thumb). Cooper Rush, the former Lansing Catholic and Central Michigan standout, was steady at quarterback in leading Dallas to a 4-1 record in Prescott's absence, losing last week in Philadelphia, 26-17. ... The Lions, losers of three straight, are significant underdogs, with the key matchup being the protection against apex second-year edge rusher Micah Parsons. Last season's unanimous defensive rookie of the year already has three double-digit sack games this season, though he had a "frustrating" night vs. the Eagles, held to zero QB hits as Dallas allowed more than 19 points and more than one touchdown for the first time this season. ... The Lions and Cowboys last played in 2019, a 35-27 Dallas win in Detroit (remember Jeff Driskel?) when Prescott passed for 444 yards and three scores. Prescott is 3-0 vs. the Lions − 2-0 in Arlington − torching them for eight touchdown passes and no picks.

Packers beat Cowboys in overtime

The Packers proved tonight why they still can't be underestimated. After five humiliating losses in a row, including to the Lions last week, the Packers got a much-needed win against the Dallas Cowboys in overtime. They overcame a 14-point deficit in the 4th quarter to come back and win. 

Meanwhile, the Cowboys drop to 6-3 and third place in the NFC East. 

Rodgers found his go-to guy

Much of the problem for the Packers this season has been on the offense. Aaron Rodgers has seemed frustrated to not have the go-to guy he had in Davante Adams. But it looks like he may have finally found him tonight in rookie wide receiver Christian Watson

Of the four touchdowns the Packers scored, three were scored by Watson. They got off to a rocky start with two dropped passes to begin the game. But once they found their rhythm, there was no stopping them.

Watson's first touchdown came on a 58-yard run to tie the game 7-7 in the 2nd quarter. His second was on a 39-yard run to put the Packers just one score behind, 28-21 in the 4th quarter. And his third tied up the game 28-28 and helped lead the Packers into overtime and their eventual win. 

McCarthy's return ruined

It was Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy's first return to Lambeau Field since being fired by the Packers four years ago. Though he received a warm welcome to start the game, losing in overtime after a fourth-quarter comeback is a little less warm.

Rudy Ford's interceptions

The Packers signed safety Rudy Ford in August and he finally made a name for himself. He had two interceptions in the first half, both of which resulted in Green Bay touchdowns. 

The Stats

Packers - ​​​​​Rodgers finished 14-of-20 for 224 yards and three touchdowns. Watson had four catches for 107 yards and three touchdowns. Running back Aaron Jones rushed 24 times for 138 yards and scored the other touchdown. Running back A.J. Dillon accounted for 13 carries and 65 yards. Wide receiver Allen Lazard had three catches for 45 yards and receiver Sammy Watkins had three receptions for 47 yards.

Cowboys - Quarterback Dak Prescott finished 27-of-46 for 265 yards and three touchdowns and two interceptions. Wide receiver CeeDee Lamb had 11 catches for 150 yards and two touchdowns. Tight end Dalton Schultz had six catches for 54 yards and a touchdown, and running back Tony Pollard had 22 carries for 115 yards and a touchdown.

The game ended with kicker Mason Crosby's 28-yard field goal with 3:06 left in overtime.
