Both the Green Bay Packers and Dallas Cowboys escaped Week 13 with victories courtesy of miraculous fourth-quarter comebacks. At least one of these teams will see a downturn in their fortunes this Sunday when the two face off at Lambeau Field.

Last week, the Packers never held a lead over the Detroit Lions during the 60 minutes of regulation. At one point in the second half, the Lions led 20-0 and appeared to have the game very much put away. However, Green Bay came roaring back late. Wide receiver Randall Cobb recovered a James Starks fumble in the end zone for the team's first points of the evening, followed by an impressive quarter and change by quarterback Aaron Rodgers. Late in the third, Rodgers threw a dart into a tight window to find Davante Adams in the back of the end zone, and near the end of the fourth he ran in his first rushing touchdown of the season from 17 yards out.

Yet, the final drive by Green Bay is what most people will remember. On what appeared to be the final play of the game, Rodgers threw to James Jones, who lateralled the ball to tight end Richard Rodgers. Rodgers then tossed it back to the quarterback, who Lions defender Devin Taylor tackled, seemingly ending the game. However, Taylor drew a flag for a facemask penalty, giving the Packers one last untimed down to get into the end zone. That's all they needed, with Rodgers and Rodgers hooking up for one of the most spectacular Hail Mary finishes in NFL history.

Several days later in the nation's capital, the Cowboys found themselves in a difficult matchup with NFC East-leading Washington. Most pundits had written off Dallas after Tony Romo's second collarbone injury of the season. The team failed to win any of its games without Romo in the lineup, with the rotation of Brandon Weeden and Matt Cassel struggling to impress in their limited action.

After a slow back-and-forth battle through the first three quarters, Dallas and Washington were locked in a tie game with under a minute left on the clock following a DeSean Jackson touchdown reception. A 46-yard kickoff return from Lucky Whitehead set up Dallas near midfield, giving the embattled Cassel the opportunity to lead a game-winning drive. Cassel targeted Dez Bryant heavily on the drive, completing passes of 12 and 8 yards to him to push the Cowboys into field goal range. That set up Dan Bailey for a 54-yard attempt, which he nailed.

With the win, the Cowboys kept their aspirations of a division crown alive. They trail Washington and the New York Giants by only a game, and have already defeated both in head-to-head completion. The team has even refrained from placing Romo on injured reserve in the hopes that he can return a second time before the end of the season. If the Cowboys end up with an unlikely playoff berth and Romo returns healthy, they have a prime opportunity to make some noise in a watered-down NFC playoff field.
