“‘Ere, he says he’s not dead!” The Packers took a page out of Monty Python on Sunday despite all of us leaving them for dead and declaring the season done. Despite the line being just +3.5, not many expected the Packers to take down the 6-2 Dallas Cowboys on a five-game skid, but Aaron Rodgers had other plans. It’s clear that Mike McCarthy’s return to Lambeau meant something extra to Rodgers as he played possibly his best game of the season despite a slew of injuries last week.
On offense, the game’s brightest star was the rookie Christian Watson, as he put up a Randy Moss on Thanksgiving-esque stat line and ran free from Dallas defenders all afternoon.
