The Dallas Cowboys have returned to the NFL Playoffs in style, going 13-3 and earning the top seed in the NFC. They will open postseason play this Sunday, hosting the Green Bay Packers in a rematch from their last playoff game in 2014.
The location for the rematch switches from Lambeau Field to Jerry World, but scenery is not the only change we’ll see. While the Packers look similar to two years ago the Cowboys have undergone some major changes to their roster, with none bigger than at quarterback.
