The Green Bay Packers marched down the field on their opening possession on Sunday in Dallas, capping off a 12-play scoring drive with a touchdown run from Aaron Jones.
Wanting to get off to a fast start against a Dallas Cowboys offense that led the NFL in scoring, the Packers won the coin toss and chose to receive the opening kickoff.
The expected blueprint in this matchup was that we were going to see a heavy dose of Jones, and that was the case on the first drive. Jones’ first two carries didn’t go anywhere, but he totaled 25 yards on his next five rush attempts.
