Packers rookie kicker Trey Smack needs a bounce-back game against the Cowboys on Sunday Night Football.

Lombardi Ave argues that Green Bay Packers rookie kicker Trey Smack has an ideal opportunity to redeem himself against the Dallas Cowboys. Smack struggled heavily during Green Bay's 31-7 win over the Chicago Bears, missing two field goals and an extra point to leave seven points off the board. His season kicking totals now sit at 7-of-10 on field goal attempts and 9-of-11 on extra points.
The writer notes that Packers-Cowboys matchups historically feature crucial kicking moments, highlighting past games involving Mason Crosby, Dan Bailey, and Brandon Aubrey. Although head coach Matt LaFleur has expressed continued confidence in Smack, the writer suggests the high-stakes rivalry could demand key kicks from long range, giving Smack a platform to quickly justify that trust.
