Packers and Cowboys fans share a love of tailgating before playoff games
Packers and Cowboys fans share their love of tailgating at AT&T Field in Arlington, Texas.
Is there anyone who loves playing against the Dallas Cowboys as much as Aaron Jones?
Well, the Packers running back owns it.
We know that the Green Bay Packers as a team own the Chicago Bears, but Jones alone can stake an ownership claim on Dallas after what he keeps doing to them.
When Jones put on a show in the Packers' 48-32 wild-card playoff win over the Cowboys on Sunday, his Wikipedia page was briefly updated with the description “Owner of the Dallas Cowboys.”
He earned the title.
Through three quarters, Jones tied a Packers postseason record with three touchdowns as he shredded the Dallas defense. At the start of the fourth quarter he passed the 100-yard mark.
The Packers fed him often and he finished the night with 21 carries for 118 yards, an average of 5.6 yards per carry, before being sent off in the fourth quarter when the Packers stopped play.
It was a happy homecoming for Jones, an El Paso native, as well as his family members, some of whom were in attendance and received footballs after Jones' touchdowns.
The performance comes four years after he recorded four touchdowns against the Cowboys at AT&T Stadium in a 34-24 Packers win.
And last year against the Cowboys at Lambeau Field, Jones rushed for 138 yards and a score in another Packers win.
He came into the game averaging 123.3 yards and six touchdowns in three games against the Cowboys.
Here are his eye-popping numbers after his last spectacular game against the Cowboys:
