- Dallas Cowboys defense surrendered 245 rushing yards, including 165 to Bucky Irving, as Tampa Bay won 24-16 in Dallas in Week 5, and the unit remains one of the league's worst despite offseason improvements.
- Green Bay Packers (3-2) enter Sunday Night Football off a 31-7 rout of NFC North rival Chicago, while the Cowboys sit at 2-3 and have lost their last game at home.
- SportsLine model projects the Packers to cover the spread 60% of the time and win outright at a 61% rate at Lambeau Field.
- Cowboys cornerback Joey Porter Jr. is active for the Sunday Night Football matchup after sitting out last week.
- Kalshi promo code CBSSPORTS55 offers new users a $55 bonus after $25 in trades, tied to the Cowboys-Packers Sunday Night Football prediction markets.
Why it matters: The Cowboys' run defense has already been gashed for 245 yards in their most recent game, and with the SportsLine model giving Green Bay a 61% outright win probability at Lambeau, bettors and prediction-market users weighing the Sunday Night Football spread face a Dallas team whose defensive issues appear systemic rather than situational.
