[8:32 PM] Buccaneers @ Cowboys

Who will WIN this matchup?

Tampa Bay Buccaneers (8-5)

@ Dallas Cowboys (11-2)

 

• The line for this game is Cowboys by 6.5 points.

• Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones keeps opening the door to a quarterback controversy on his team, but no one else seems to be biting. There is no controversy on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, who are closing in on a playoff spot behind Jameis Winston as they prepare to visit the NFC-leading Cowboys on Sunday.

• Winston is drawing raves for his leadership during Tampa Bay’s winning streak but could use more from top receiver Mike Evans, who was limited to 80 yards without a touchdown in the last two games. The Bucs could get some help on the other side of the ball from defensive back Chris Conte, who missed the last two games with a chest injury but returned to practice this week.

• Jones clarified his comments on Thursday and backed Prescott while still expressing his admiration for Romo.The quarterback on defense, linebacker Sean Lee, recorded a season-high 18 tackles in Sunday’s loss but is limited in practice this week due to a knee injury and is questionable for Sunday.

• Buccaneers WR Adam Humphries (concussion) cleared the league’s protocol and returned to practice after sitting out last week’s game.

• Dallas WR Dez Bryant (back) was held to one catch on nine targets last week and is limited in practice.

• Tampa Bay DT Gerald McCoy (foot) continues to miss practice time but has yet to miss a game due to the injury and is questionable for Sunday
