I don't really complain about banner, but don't come into a Packer forum if you can't spell Favre.
This game is going to amazing, and it's unfortunate that Cowboys and Packers fans around the nation will miss it because of the four people who own NFL Network in their homes.
FOR GREEN BAY TO WIN:
It all starts at the line of scrimmage. Green Bay's defensive line has been dominating opposing offensive line's all season, but they'll be going against what's probably the best offensive line in the league (as proven with the Pro Bowl votes). Romo is a young gun who poses distinct similarities with Green Bay's old gunslinger, and he will make mistakes if he's forced to get rid of the ball quickly. If Romo is pressured, especially by Aaron Kampman, expect Romo to play a bit more on the left side of the pocket--that's where the Packers can test his experience because on passing downs, Kabeer Gbaja-Biamila can nail him if he's not careful. The Packers also possess two cover corners in Al Harris and Charles Woodson. Harris expects to be on Owens all day, and at that the Cowboys have a very quick second option with Patrick Crayton (if he's healthy).
On offense, Green Bay has to have balance early. They've had a lot of success with the Play Action Pass, and that can only be done when the defense expects a run. Expect a lot of James Jones and Koren Robinson here as the Cowboys don't have much of a secondary after Terence Newman and Anthony Henry. If Donald Lee can escape this game with two touchdowns and Ryan Grant can average 5 yards a carry, the Packers will win this game.
Cowboys Player to watch: Jason Witten, TE -- No other TE in the NFC has had the impact Witten has had this season, and Green Bay has proven against teams like Kansas City, San Diego, NYG, Washington, and Chicago that they really don't have a proper answer against them.

For the Cowboys to Win...
DeMarcus Ware has to take advantage of the matchup between Marcus Spears and Mark Tauscher. Spears is extremely strong and if Tauscher can bottle him up, the explosive Ware can sneak up on Favre and nail him every chance he gets. Against the slants, Dallas should be playing inside technique and have Ken Hamlin help out against Greg Jennings. Jennings has shown the tendency of getting hurt against hard-hitting safeties, and to stop the Packer offense from obtaining a rhythm, the Cowboys have to play physical. Since the Cowboys don't have much pressure provided by their defensive line, Favre will probably have the time to throw, but the Cowboys need to contain the run in order for the Packers to not call play action. If the Packers expose the Cowboys with play action, it's over.
On offense, Tony Romo needs to hit Terrell Owens early. If Owens is not thrown to in first 18 minutes of a football game, he is usually shutout and becomes a non factor. Expect Tony Romo to hit Julius Jones, Jason Witten, and Anthony Fasano on checkdowns to keep Green Bay on the field. The Packers are hurt in the defensive and can't shuffle to the same extent as they have in the other games, so Dallas is going to need to play fast. If their two-headed backfield finds success early, Romo will easily find balance and expose the safeties of the Packers.
Packers Player to Watch: Brett Favre, QB
Never has Favre gone a full month without an interception.
