QB Jordan Love is in the mood for celebrations after winning 48-32 the Wild card against the Cowboys. The Packers have broken the long-standing jinx and rewrote franchise history for the good. Against all odds, the Green Bay team completely dominated the Cowboys’ entire game and never gave any respite.

The Cowboys and the Packers have played each other 8 times in playoffs, winning 4 each. This time around, the Cowboys were looking the stronger team as they hadn’t lost a home game this season. The Packers made a mockery of that record and stomped the Cowboys at their fortress in a proper beat down. After the game, Jordan Love looked confident and happy while sharing a heartfelt message.
