In a stunning comeback, the Packers have rallied from a 26-3 halftime deficit to take an 37-36 lead with 1:20 left in regulation against Dallas.

Eddie Lacy’s TD plunge from one yard out gave the Packers their first lead of the contest. The scoring drive came after Packers cornerback Sam Shields intercepted Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo with about three minutes left and Dallas holding a 36-31 lead.

Packers quarterback Matt Flynn has had a second half to remember, throwing four TD passes.

The much-maligned Cowboys’ defense, meanwhile, has had another game to forget.

At present, officials are reviewing a potential Green Bay interception by Tramon Williams.
