ARLINGTON, Texas \u2014 Brandon Aubrey and Brandon McManus traded short field goals in overtime, and Micah Parsons\u2019 highly anticipated return to Dallas ended with the Cowboys and Green Bay Packers in a 40-40 tie Sunday night.<\/p>\n
Dak Prescott and Jordan Love had three touchdown passes apiece in regulation, which included seven consecutive lead-changing TDs before McManus\u2019 tying 53-yard field goal as time expired.
\nMcManus kicked a 34-yarder as the clock hit 0:00 in overtime, just after Love\u2019s pass into the back of the end zone fell incomplete with just a second remaining.<\/p>\n
What started as the hyped return of one of the game\u2019s elite pass rushers exactly a month after the Cowboys (1-2-1) traded Parsons to the Packers (2-1-1) ended up as the second dramatic duel of quarterbacks in as many home games for Dallas.
\nThe Cowboys beat the Giants 40-37 in overtime two weeks earlier when Russell Wilson was starting for New York.<\/p>\n
The second-highest scoring tie in NFL history, behind the Raiders\u2019 43-43 draw with the Boston Patriots in the AFL in 1964, was the first for Dallas since 1969. The Packers last tied in 2018.<\/p>\n
