Dallas Cowboys at home

The Green Bay Packers play really well at home; the Dallas Cowboys have been known to play really well on the road.

So, when the Dallas Cowboys head back to Green Bay for a rematch of their NFC Divisional Round Playoff Game from this past January, the fireworks will be flying.

The Cowboys might have a different look and feel on offense, given that both Dez Bryant and DeMarco Murray are free agents. How the Cowboys deal with those two players will go a long way in determining just how good they will be on offense in 2015.

As one of the top five teams being considered as having a shot at making the Super Bowl in 2015, the Cowboys will be a giant challenge for the Packers … even if they are playing them at home.

Again, this game, like the last playoff game, could come down to a defensive stop or big play on the defensive side of the ball.

Tony Romo will be as dangerous as ever and that offensive line that Jerry Jones has put together down in Dallas is monstrous and one that will be clearing roads for their running game for years to come.

Another NFC matchup that will go a long way in determining division winners and playoff contenders, this Cowboys game will be one of, if not the biggest game of the Packers’ 2015 regular season.

And while it doesn’t grade out at the top of my five most important games of the 2015 season at this point, by the time the day of the matchup rolls around, it may have reached that pinnacle.

But in the meantime, we’ll send you along to our top pick as the most important regular season game the Packers must win in 2015 …
