Matchup Breakdown

How the model sees it unfold — the matchups that decide the game, from 50 simulations
Keys to the Game
  • MarShawn Lloyd (Packers) vs Ameer Speed (Cowboys) - winner: Ameer Speed, holding him to 1.2 yds a carry - bottled up between the tackles.
  • Lukas Van Ness (Packers) vs Tyler Guyton (Cowboys) - winner: Lukas Van Ness, winning 58% of reps for 2.7 sacks and 5.6 pressures a game - constant heat on the quarterback.
  • Javonte Williams (Cowboys) vs Isaiah McDuffie (Packers) - winner: Javonte Williams, 4.7 yds a carry - controls the line of scrimmage.
  • CeeDee Lamb (Cowboys) vs Keisean Nixon (Packers) - winner: CeeDee Lamb, open on 60% of routes for 8.1/10.6, 72 yds a game - separation all day.
In the Trenches
  • The Packers' quarterback should have time; the Cowboys win just 51% of reps for 3.1 sacks a game, led by Rashan Gary (2.7 sacks, 4.7 pressures a game).
  • Pressure could be scarce for the Packers — a 51% win rate, 5.3 sacks and 21.0 pressures a game, and Lukas Van Ness (2.7 sacks, 5.6 pressures a game) headlines it.
Through the Air
  • Look for CeeDee Lamb to eat: 8.1 catches and 72 yds a game for the Cowboys.
  • The Packers' aerial attack runs through Christian Watson (85 yds a game, open on 54% of routes).
  • Javon Bullard (Packers) is the stopper here, allowing open looks on only 36% of his coverage snaps with 0.1 INT a game.
On the Ground
  • The Cowboys hand it to Javonte Williams early and often, 12 carries for 59 yds a game at 4.7 a carry, with his best work off the right edge and keeping the sticks moving.
  • MarShawn Lloyd is the workhorse for the Packers, churning 12 yds a game at 1.2 a carry against a stingy front.
