NFL Week 5: Ranking the best games to watch on Sunday

2. Cowboys vs. Packers

Aaron Rodgers has a history of driving the Dallas Cowboys absolutely crazy, and despite the Green Bay Packers losing Davante Adams, the future Hall of Famer still has plenty of other young weapons to work with.

While the Packers are coming off a difficult loss at home last week to the Philadelphia Eagles, the Cowboys were in a similar boat after coming up short against the New Orleans Saints.

With both teams sitting at 3-1, chances are that both Green Bay and Dallas will find themselves in the race for a playoff spot in the NFC down the road, meaning this game has all sorts of importance.

Even though it’s only October, the last thing either of these two teams want to do at this point in the regular season is drop to 3-2 to gain a disadvantage against the rest of the top contenders in the NFC.

Then again, after watching the Packers’ defense struggle the way they have to stop the run, this could be one of those games in which Ezekiel Elliott breaks out with a monster performance.

Green Bay can prepare all the want for the star Cowboys running back, but if Elliott is heavily involved as expected, it will only make this contest even more exciting to follow.
