The Packers and Cowboys are set to meet under the lights again on October 18, and this one comes with Sunday Night Football billing at Lambeau Field in Green Bay, WI. It’s the third straight year these teams have lined up against each other, and the latest chapter kicks off at 8:20 p.m. ET.
If you’re looking to be there in person, tickets are already available on StubHub. The current get-in price is $300, while club seats start at $430.
The recent history between these teams has been tight. Their last matchup ended in a tie, snapping Green Bay’s run of five straight wins in the series. Even with that result, the Packers still hold the edge in the recent back-and-forth, since Dallas’ last win came in 2016.
Green Bay’s Week 6 spot sits in the middle of a loaded stretch on the schedule. Before the Cowboys arrive, the Packers host the Bears in Week 5, then turn right around to face the Lions in Week 7. Their slate also includes a Thursday night game against the Panthers, a trip to the Patriots, a home game against the Vikings, and later-season matchups with the Bills, Dolphins, Texans, and Lions.
Dallas also comes into the game with a packed calendar around it. The Cowboys travel to Green Bay after a Thursday night meeting with the Buccaneers and before road games at the Eagles and Seahawks, plus home dates with the Cardinals, 49ers, Titans, Eagles, Jaguars, and Giants.
For this one, though, all the focus lands on October 18, kickoff at 8:20 p.m. ET, and another Packers-Cowboys meeting in prime time.

Packers Suddenly Have New Offensive Line Questions This Week
The Packers latest injury report brought a fresh layer of uncertainty to a group that has already been under the microscope, with four players listed as non-participants and both Chris Brooks and Aaron Banks among them. For a team trying to keep its offense on schedule, any week that adds turnover up front or in the backfield tends to draw immediate attention, especially as the practice week starts to take shape.
Savion Williams at least offered a bit of movement on the other side of the ledger, as he returned to practice and opened his 21-day window to come off injured reserve. The bigger issue now is how Green Bay manages the rest of the week while Chicago deals with its own long injury list, because the Packers preparation could hinge on which pieces are actually available when the division matchup gets closer.

Packers Suddenly Have A Familiar Backfield Option Fans Will Recognize
The Packers ground game has been searching for a spark through four games, and the numbers have reflected it. Green Bays current running backs have averaged three yards per carry, with MarShawn Lloyd, Kaleb Johnson and Chris Brooks combining for 231 rushing yards on 75 carries, a production line that leaves plenty of room for improvement as the team tries to settle into its 2-2 start.
One familiar name now hovering around the conversation is Jamaal Williams, who last played for the Saints in 2024 and recently worked out with the Patriots while reportedly looking good. For Packers fans, the idea of a reunion is easy to understand: Williams would bring a known presence to the backfield and a jolt of energy to the locker room at a time when Josh Jacobs status remains uncertain.

Jordan Love Gives Packers Fans A Reason To Believe Before Bears Week
Jordan Love has given Green Bay something it has been waiting for at the most important position on the field: steady, efficient quarterback play. As the NFC North turns toward Week 5, the Packers are watching a division landscape shaped by uneven quarterback performances, with Minnesota winning despite Kyler Murrays struggles and Chicago leaning on Tyson Bagent as part of an offense that has found ways to function. In that mix, Loves improved efficiency stands out as a reason Packers fans can believe the offense is moving in the right direction.
The timing matters because the Bears are not just surviving on offense, they have had real success doing it, which makes this week a useful measuring stick for Green Bay. Minnesotas formula has been built more on defense than quarterback production, while Murray is still auditioning for the long-term contract questions hanging over him. Love does not have to settle every debate in one Sunday, but he does need to keep showing that the Packers have stability where their division rivals still have uncertainty. [Read more 🡒]
