The Green Bay Packers host the Dallas Cowboys at Lambeau Field on Sunday Night Football in Week 6, renewing a high-scoring rivalry. CBS Sports writer Garrett Podell predicts a 34-24 victory for the Packers, arguing that quarterback Jordan Love and Green Bay's passing attack will overpower Dallas' struggling defense. The Cowboys enter the matchup seeking their first win against the Packers since the 2016 regular season.

Dallas ranks last in the NFL in run defense and third-down defense, prompting the hiring of Mike Pettine as a senior assistant under coordinator Christian Parker. Meanwhile, the Packers enter after a 31-7 win over Chicago, where Love threw for 367 yards and two touchdowns to Christian Watson and Matthew Golden.
