Bucs Streak Ends with Hard-Fought Loss

A five-game winning streak got the Tampa Bay Buccaneers flexed to prime time against the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday night. That time change was no problem for a team that clearly deserved a national spotlight; it was after the game began that the clock became a problem.

The Cowboys snapped Tampa Bay's winning streak on Sunday night at AT&T Stadium with a 26-20 decision that included three lead changes, two in the second half. Dallas controlled the ball for more than two-thirds of the first half to build a 17-6 lead but the visiting Bucs rallied with a pair of third-quarter touchdown passes by QB Jameis Winston, one each to Adam Humphries and Cam Brate.
