Why the Dallas Cowboys can win?
The Dallas Cowboys have peaked at the right time. Despite some early struggles, the Cowboys managed to win the NFC East division on the back of an MVP-level campaign from their quarterback Dak Prescott.
They rank inside the top 5 in most of the major offensive and defensive statistics. They are a perfectly balanced team and can easily win their playoff game against the Packers if Prescott can continue his good form on Sunday. If Prescott fails to live up to the hype, then it will be a whole different ball game.
Why the Green Bay Packers can win?
On the other hand, the Packers surprised a lot of people by making it this far in this season. The Packers weren’t expected to make the playoffs in Jordan Love’s first full year as a starter. However, Love had a remarkable campaign and led his team to a playoff game.
The Packers rushing attacks are one of their major strengths and their run defense is one of their major weakness. If they can polish their weakness and if they can run the ball well against Dallas, they might have a shot at defeating the No.2 seed in the NFC. Otherwise, it could turn really ugly for them on Sunday.
