Green Bay improved to 4-2 with a 23-13 victory over Dallas on Sunday night, extending its winning streak to three games. Jordan Love threw for 276 yards and accounted for a touchdown through the air and another on the ground.

The Packers converted two first-half interceptions of Dak Prescott into a field goal and Love’s 1-yard touchdown run near the end of the second quarter. They led 17-0 at halftime and limited Dallas to one scoring drive before the closing stages of the fourth quarter.

Dallas reached the Green Bay 14 on a second-half possession helped by a penalty, but surrendered possession on downs after Prescott threw high and out of the end zone.

Love completed 23 of 41 passes, with one touchdown and one interception. Matthew Golden paced Green Bay’s receivers with 104 yards and a touchdown on six catches. Christian Watson added three receptions for 64 yards, while Trey Smack made field goals from 25, 44 and 29 yards.

Prescott completed 34 of 54 attempts for 258 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions. Green Bay recorded seven hits on him and one sack.

Green Bay’s next game is at Detroit against the Lions. Dallas, now 2-4, will visit the Eagles, also 2-4, on Monday night in its next matchup.
