The Green Bay Packers defense surrendered 28 points versus the Mike McCarthy-led Cowboys on Sunday, yet it was not enough for McCarthy’s squad to steal a road win versus his former team and many of his former players. The Packers defense, while surrendering 28 points, made a statement with their pass coverages on a few key third downs including one interception and a pass break-up on the Cowboys’ only third down in overtime.
Defensive coordinator Joe Barry plays a variety of 2-high coverages and single-high coverages, electing for a more two-high based approach on obvious passing downs.
