This game was supposed to be about McCarthy versus LaFleur. Aaron Rodgers versus Dak Prescott. Cowboys-Packers and their connected history. McCarthy and his Packer history. Rodgers and his public disconnect with McCarthy. The Cowboy vaunted defense. The Packers’ patchwork offense and defense trying to salvage their respectability while dealing with injury after injury. The season seemed set to collapse for Titletown fans. Losing to the Dallas Cowboys has an extra taste of bitterness for every Packer fan. After dominating them in the Lombardi era, years of defeats by Troy Aikman and the Cowboys of the early 1990s, especially those playoff losses from ’93-‘95, still burn hot.
