I think it's a field goal game either way.

I see a desperate Tampa Bay team...but when you think about it, who do they have to hurt Dallas with? Tampa is a shell of their former selves. Alstott gone. Lynch hurt bad. Simeon hurting...Keyshawn getting older...Sapp going against Larry Allen. Nothing about their offense should scare the Cowboys.

Their defense is excellent when they're healthy but they aren't, and have declined since the first game of the season when they shutout Phily.

I feel that Dallas' D will make the difference in this game moreso than TBay's.

I'm on the Cowboys this week. I bought it up to +7 -120 the day the lines came out. This is just too many points for a team as troubled as the Bucs to lay.

I don't normally like to go against a good team that's just been embarassed, but honestly, I don't see TB being a TD better. Parcells has the 'Boys very focused & playing well. Last week looked like it could be an overlook spot - Parcells was ready and made sure they played hard against the Lions, instead of taking them for granted. He will do the same here. Yes, Dallas has played some weaker teams, but they have played solidly in all aspects of the game, in all games since Week 2.

Dallas actually has a better defence than TB at this point in the season as well, strange as that sounds. A good safe game plan should keep it within the number at the very least.

Good luck.
