Circumstances surrounding Dallas Cowboys coach Mike McCarthy's return to Lambeau Field to face his former team are quite a bit different from expected.
He led the Packers to their most recent Super Bowl title, in the 2010 season. A road near Lambeau Field is named Mike McCarthy Way.
says he appreciates the way his former coach has shown his sentimental side in the days leading up to this matchup. Elliott missed just one game because of injury in his first six seasons. He played through a knee injury last year, limiting his effectiveness. Even before the latest injury, he was sharing the backfield more than at any point in his career.
"I would say there is urgency," Elliott said."But I think what's important is just making sure my knee is good and ready to go. I plan to play deep into the playoffs, so the long game is definitely the priority."Young pass-rushing star Micah Parsons faced Tom Brady in his first game as a rookie for the Cowboys last year, and again in the opener this season.
