Brandon Aubrey of Dallas and Brandon McManus of Green Bay traded field goals in overtime as the Cowboys and Packers played to a 40-40 tie in a wild Sunday night affair at Arlington, Texas.
The contest marked the return to Dallas of Micah Parsons, exactly one month after the All-Pro edge rusher was traded to the Packers. Parsons, who was involved in contentious contract negotiations with Cowboys owner Jerry Jones, had three tackles and one sack.
Dak Prescott was 31-of-40 passing for 319 yards and three touchdowns and also ran for a score for Dallas (1-2-1). George Pickens caught eight passes for 134 yards and two touchdowns, Javonte Williams rushed for 85 yards and a touchdown and Jake Ferguson had a scoring catch for the Cowboys.
Jordan Love completed 31 of 43 passes for 337 yards and three touchdowns for the Packers (2-1-1). Romeo Doubs caught a career-high three scoring receptions and Josh Jacobs had 157 scrimmage yards (86 rushing, 71 receiving) and ran for two touchdowns.
Aubrey kicked a 22-yard field goal with 4:40 left in the overtime.
The Packers had a chance to go for the win but some clock mismanagement led to an incompletion with one second left. McManus then connected from 34 yards out as time expired.
Love drilled a 15-yard touchdown pass to Doubs with 1:45 remaining in regulation to give the Packers a 34-30 edge.
Prescott connected with Pickens on a 28-yard scoring play to put Dallas back ahead with 43 seconds left.
Love then moved the Packers 39 yards to set up McManus' 53-yard tying field goal to force overtime.
Green Bay held a 20-16 advantage after Jacobs scored on a 1-yard run with 7:08 left in the third quarter.
Parsons was on the sidelines and reportedly was examined for a concussion during the next Dallas possession. He banged heads earlier in the quarter with teammate Nate Hobbs as both players were in pursuit on a Dallas running play. Hobbs later was removed from the game with 9:20 remaining to be examined for a concussion.
The Cowboys answered with Parsons out on Prescott's 8-yard touchdown pass to Ferguson with 34 seconds left in the period to put Dallas ahead 23-20.
Jacobs scored on an 18-yard scamper to give the Packers a 27-23 lead with 11:39 left in regulation.
The Cowboys responded with Williams' 1-yard run for a three-point lead with 4:50 remaining.
Green Bay scored on the game's initial possession with Love finishing it off with a 2-yard touchdown pass to Doubs.
The Love-Doubs duo teamed up on a 1-yard score with 10:37 remaining in the first half.
However, Juanyeh Thomas blocked the point-after by McManus and Markquese Bell ran approximately 85 yards to record a defensive two-point conversion for the Cowboys.
Later in the quarter, Prescott scored from the 2 to bring the Cowboys within 13-9 with 41 seconds left.
Then Dallas' James Houston posted a strip-sack of Love and recovered the fumble at the Packers' 15. On the next play, Prescott hit Pickens for the score to put Dallas ahead 16-13 at halftime.
