The Green Bay Packers’ special teams coach, Rich Bisaccia, took a playful jab at the Dallas Cowboys after the Packers secured a convincing victory in their playoff matchup on Sunday night.
Following the 48-32 win, Bisaccia, channeling the spirit of former Cowboys coach Jimmy Johnson, exclaimed, “How about them Cowboys?” while heading back to the Packers’ locker room. The remark captured by a reporter added a touch of light-hearted banter to the competitive atmosphere.
Throughout the game, Green Bay exhibited dominance, surging to a 27-0 lead in the second quarter. Despite a late attempt by the Cowboys to mount a comeback, the Packers’ lead proved insurmountable.
Jordan Love, the Packers’ quarterback, played a pivotal role, completing 16 of 21 passes for 272 yards and three touchdown throws. Love connected with Romeo Doubs, Luke Musgrave, and Dontayvion Wicks for the scoring plays.
Aaron Jones, the Packers’ running back, contributed significantly with three rushing touchdowns. Jones’ impressive performance included a 3-yard run that initiated Green Bay’s scoring.
He found the end zone again in the second quarter and once more in the third. Finishing the game with 118 yards on 21 carries, Jones played a crucial role in the Packers’ offensive success.

The victory marked a historic moment for Green Bay as the first No. 7 seed to win a playoff game since the NFL expanded the playoffs four years ago.
Jordan Love expressed the team’s resilient mindset, emphasizing their determination to dominate despite being underestimated by many. The Packers’ next challenge awaits on the road against the San Francisco 49ers in the upcoming divisional round.
The Packers’ defense contributed significantly to the win. Darnell Savage’s interception return for a touchdown showcased the team’s defensive capabilities during the NFC Wild Card playoff game at AT&T Stadium.
