Prediction
The Bucs offense looks unstoppable right now, but the Cowboys are starting to play a little better and Cooper Rush isn’t bad. The Bucs have some injury issues on defense that will allow the Cowboys to score some points. Defensively, Dallas has been putting a lot of pressure on quarterbacks lately and I think they can do the same against Baker Mayfield to slow him down. This seems like the type of game that will come down to a field goal, so give me the points.
Pick: Cowboys +4
