Good luck finding a more entertaining game than the 40-40 shootout on Sunday night between the Dallas Cowboys and the Green Bay Packers. It certainly ended in a tie, but it will be remembered as the “game of the year.”

The Cowboys had plenty of chances to close it, but the defense couldn’t get that one big stop. To make things worse, LT Tyler Guyton had to leave late and go into the concussion protocol.

Nate Thomas stepped in at left tackle to finish the game. But Cowboys EVP Stephen Jones has delivered a ray of hope for the fans. According to Jones, Guyton suffered a concussion at the end of the game, but they believe he has a chance to complete the protocol and be ready for next Sunday.

Guyton will now have to clear the NFL’s concussion protocol to be featured in week 5 against the Jets. It’s a brutal timing, though. The Cowboys’ offensive line is already short on some key players.

Missing Cooper Beebe at the center and Tyler Booker at right guard with the foot and ankle issues.

Honestly, the Cowboys’ offense struggled to keep Micah Parsons in check. But Guyton was huge in keeping Parsons from dominating.

Well, it wasn’t Parsons’ usual game performance. But he still racked up eight pressures and a pass rush win rate of 34.5%.

The difference between Guyton and Parsons? Guyton was dominant, especially in the run game. Like on Prescott’s touchdown run, he literally stonewalled Parsons. If Guyton misses time, it will definitely hurt the Cowboys.

Micah Parsons’ return hits a bitter note despite the ‘sack on Dak’

Micah Parsons at least got one thing that he wanted when he returned to the AT&T Stadium- he sacked his former teammate, Dak Prescott. But apart from that, the game didn’t go exactly his way. Even when both teams traded field goals in overtime, the game ended in a tie.

After the game, Parsons’ feelings were clear. “I’m not even going to lie, I’m pissed off,” he said. “I’m very disappointed, just overall how we performed.”

Interestingly, Parsons wasn’t blaming the Packers QB Jordan Love, who had a decent outing on Sunday with 337 passing yards and 3 touchdowns. He even apologized to Love, telling him, “Thank you for having our back today.”

While Parsons tipped his hat to Love, he made it clear the Packers’ defense fell short of the moment. But that Sunday was really about Parsons making a statement. He reminded the Cowboys what they lost.

He logged 4 pressures, two of them in overtime, including a sack on Prescott at the 4-yard line that forced Dallas to settle for a field goal instead of six. In a game that saw seven lead changes—the most ever in a tie—Parsons got his moment. But walking away without a win left him with the sting of unfinished business.

Most of that unfinished “revenge” was thanks to Prescott, who went stride-for-stride with Love while dropping 319 yards and three touchdowns. Even under fire, he delivered—10 of 13 for 121 yards and six first downs on pressured snaps. If Guyton’s return shores up protection, Dallas could finally have the QB-line combo that swings games in their favor.
