Running back Emmitt Smith rushed for 150 rushing yards and 3 touchdowns as the
Cowboys overcame a Packers 27-24 lead in the fourth quarter.
Green Bay scored first on kicker Chris Jacke's 36-yard field goal,
but Dallas quarterback Troy Aikman responded by throwing 2
touchdowns to wide receiver Michael Irvin.
Packers quarterback Brett Favre countered with two touchdown passes of his own:
a 73-yarder to Robert Brooks and a 24-yarder to tight end Keith Jackson.
However, Cowboys kicker Chris Boniol made a 34-yard field goal to tie the game,
17-17. Dallas then took the lead with 24 seconds before halftime after marching 99
yards to score on running back Emmitt Smith's 1-yard touchdown.
Green Bay then scored 10 unanswered points in the third quarter to take a 27-24
lead with Jacke's 37-yard field goal and 1-yard touchdown completion from Favre to Brooks.
But Dallas regained the lead in the fourth quarter after Smith's 5-yard
touchdown capped off a 90-yard possession.
Then, Cowboys cornerback Larry Brown's 28-yard interception return set up
Smith's 16-yard touchdown run to clinch the victory.
Brooks finished the game with 6 receptions for 105 yards and 2 touchdowns.
After the contest, Reggie White was so visibly upset,
he started shouting at television crews who were filming him on the sidelines.
This was the third consecutive year that Dallas eliminated the Packers from the playoffs.
