This wasn’t just any game — it was the second-highest scoring tie in pro football history and the first Cowboys tie since 1969. Despite the hype surrounding Micah Parsons’ return to Dallas, neither he nor Dak Prescott got the win they desperately wanted.
🔥 Key Moments
1. Quarterback Duel
-
Jordan Love (GB): 337 yards, 3 TDs (all to Romeo Doubs)
-
Dak Prescott (DAL): 319 yards, 3 TDs, 1 rushing TD
-
The duo combined for seven consecutive lead-changing touchdowns in regulation.
2. Overtime Chaos
-
Prescott’s 34-yard scramble-pass to Tolbert set Dallas up at the 5-yard line.
-
Micah Parsons’ clutch sack helped stall the drive. Brandon Aubrey nailed a 22-yard FG.
-
Love answered, converting on 4th-and-6 and setting up McManus for the tying 34-yarder with 0:00 left in OT.
🛑 Parsons’ Return: Not a Fairytale
Traded to Green Bay exactly one month prior, Parsons’ emotional return featured:

1 key sack in OT

Disruption on several downs

A bittersweet finish: “I felt like I was giving them my best shot… and we just came out into a draw.”
📉 Missed Opportunities & Mismanagement
