Cowboy's and Packers Battle to 40-40 Tie in Overtime Thriller

The Dallas Cowboys and Green Bay Packers delivered an instant classic at AT&T Stadium on Sunday, ending in a rare 40-40 overtime tie that showcased two of the NFL’s premier quarterbacks in peak form.

Quarterback Duel for the Ages

Dak Prescott continued his MVP-caliber season, completing 31 of 40 passes for 319 yards and three touchdowns. His new weapon, George Pickens, proved invaluable with 134 receiving yards and two scores, including the game-tying touchdown with under two minutes remaining in regulation.

Jordan Love matched Prescott’s intensity, throwing for 337 yards and three touchdowns on 31-of-43 passing. All three scoring strikes connected with Romeo Doubs, who torched the Cowboys secondary throughout the afternoon.

Micah Parsons Faces Former Team

The game’s biggest storyline centered on Micah Parsons, who recorded three tackles and one sack against his former Cowboys squad after an offseason trade sent him to Green Bay. The All-Pro edge rusher’s presence added an emotional layer to an already intense NFC showdown.

Wild Finish Leads to Tie

After trading blows throughout regulation, the Packers’ Brian McManus drilled a 53-yard field goal to force overtime at 37-37. Both teams added field goals in the extra period, with McManus converting another kick as time expired to seal the deadlock.

The result leaves Dallas at 2-1-1 while Green Bay moves to 1-2-1 heading into their bye week. The Cowboys travel to face the New York Jets next Sunday, while the Packers return October 12 against Cincinnati.
