Cowboys vs. Packers odds, picks: First touchdown predictions for Sunday Night Football Week 6

The Dallas Cowboys and Green Bay Packers square off in a high-stakes Sunday Night Football showdown, with both teams entering the matchup on strong but contrasting trajectories. Dallas, nursing a 2-3 record after a surprising home loss to Tampa Bay, faces a tougher defensive challenge than the Bears did last week, while Green Bay rolls in off a dominant 31-point rout of Chicago—its highest offensive output of the season.

The Packers’ run defense remains a concern, ranking among the league’s worst in allowing rushing yards, which could play directly into the Cowboys’ hands. Leading the charge for Dallas is running back Javonte Williams, who has been the offensive engine, logging 77% of the team’s snaps and presenting a clear path to early scoring opportunities.

Prediction markets on Kalshi have identified Williams as the slight favorite to score the first touchdown of the game, with his odds at $0.18—a reflection of his central role and the Cowboys’ explosive offensive firepower. Among Packers’ options, Christian Watson and Marshawn Lloyd lead the way, though none of their odds approach Williams’ lead.

The Cowboys’ defense, despite recent struggles, will need to contain Green Bay’s high-powered offense, which has shown no signs of slowing down after last week’s outburst.
