Stock up, stock down for Packers after Week 5 win vs. Cowboys

After their impressive victory over the Dallas Cowboys, here’s the Green Bay Packers’ latest stock report.

The Green Bay Packers‘ schedule early in the season was anything but favorable, but they’ve come away with four wins from five and are nicely positioned to make a playoff push the rest of the way. Realistically, the Packers will need at least six more victories from their final 11 games to secure a playoff berth, but they look good enough as a team to achieve that goal.

Defeating the Dallas Cowboys always feels good for Packers fans, and Green Bay’s recent dominance in the rivalry, and at AT&T Stadium, continued on Sunday. The Packers have now won three straight against the Cowboys, and all of those games were played on the road. Green Bay has also won eight of its past nine games against Dallas.

But the history doesn’t count for much now. This victory does, though. It’s a conference win, and they are important, especially up against another potential playoff contender. With this victory, the Packers take the all-important head-to-head tiebreaker. Who knows how crucial that could be late in December?

Up next is a home game against a talented Detroit Lions team.

Following yet another impressive win, let’s take a look at the stock report for the Packers entering Week 6.
