For the second straight week, the Green Bay Packers special teams has a kick blocked.
Last week, it led to a loss against the Cleveland Browns.
And this week, it cost them two points in their game against the Dallas Cowboys on “Sunday Night Football” and changed the complexion of the first half and set in motion a series of mistakes by the Packers.

Sound familiar?
The Packers had just went up 13-0 after their second touchdown early in the second quarter and were in complete control. But Brandon McManus’ extra point was blocked as the line got blown up and the Cowboys returned it all the way to the end zone, which was good for 2 points.
The Cowboys would pounce. Late in the second quarter, they had their first touchdown and then moments later, the Cowboys defense stripped Jordan Love late in the first half. One player later, Dak Prescott found George Pickens on a 15-yard touchdown. Just like that, the Packers trailed 16-13, at halftime.
The special teams unit, and specifically, special teams coordinator Rich Bisaccia, garnered the most frustrations on social media.
