Tampa Bay (8-9) has the worst record of any playoff team, but was the beneficiary of a weak NFC South that allowed them to claim the division title.
The two teams met in the season opener when the Buccaneers beat the Cowboys 19-3 at Jerry World. That’s all in the past, however, and it’s win or go home from here.
Will the Cowboys take care of business on the road or will Playoff Brady strike again?
