The Dallas Cowboys came away with a 26-24 victory on Sunday Night Football against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The Cowboys were viewed as an underdog throughout the week, as the Bucs were atop the NFC South heading into the game and had been building a lot of momentum.

With the Cowboys having nothing to play for, and the Bucs still playing for their division title, it would have been safe to assume that Tampa Bay would come out with far more intensity in their matchup.
