The Green Bay Packers and the Dallas Cowboys meet in the postseason for the ninth time, with each team winning four games. The Cowboys won the NFC East with a 12-5 record, while the Packers clinched a Wild Card berth last week with a 9-8 record.
A big storyline heading into the game is Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy facing the team he led to a Super Bowl title. He was 125-77-2 with nine playoff appearances in 13 seasons as Green Bay’s head coach.
Kickoff for the game will be at 4:30 p.m. ET on FOX.
Who Are the Game Announcers for Packers-Cowboys?
The FOX lead crew of Kevin Burkhardt, Greg Olsen, Erin Andrews, and Tom Rinaldi will be on the call for the Packers-Cowboys. This crew called last year’s Super Bowl to end their first season together as a team.
Burkhardt has been with FOX since 2013, when he joined the network as an NFL play-by-play announcer. He also leads FOX’s MLB studio coverage during the regular season and postseason.
Olsen is in his third season as a game analyst for FOX. After retiring from the NFL, he joined FOX as a game analyst for the 2021 season. After one season with Burkhardt, FOX elevated the duo to be the lead duo for the 2022 campaign after Joe Buck and Troy Aikman left for ESPN.
Andrews has been with FOX since 2012, after eight years at ESPN. At FOX, she has been part of the broadcast team for three Super Bowls, along with multiple World Series and MLB All-Star games.
