The Dallas Cowboys came away with a hard-fought win over the surging Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday night, 26-20. After last week’s loss to the New York Giants, it was extremely important to get back in the win column. Not just because starting a losing streak this late in the season would be a bad sign, though it would, but because Dallas is trying to lock up home-field advantage throughout the playoffs. Tonight’s win left Dallas with only one victory needed to reach that goal.
The Cowboys need just one more win in their final two games and they will clinch the best record in the NFC.
