The Arizona Republic: Cowboys 30, Buccaneers 20
Jeremy Cluff writes: "No Baker Mayfield, no chance? Jalon Daniels did some nice things in his first start in NFL Week 4, but
he is an undrafted rookie QB. Dak Prescott and Dallas will be able to outscore Tampa Bay to move above .500, while the Buccaneers will fall to 0-5."
Bookies.com: Bet the under in Cowboys vs Buccaneers game
Bill Speros writes: "The Bucs have failed to cover in 13 straight games, a Super Bowl Era record of futility. The Pirate Ship took on more water Sunday thanks to a feeble 17-14 loss at home to Green Bay. Rookie Jalon – not Jayden – Daniels flopped in his NFL debut. But the Bucs have a clear path to a top-three draft pick and the potential NFL franchise QB that awaits. Dak and the Cowboys ran their record to 3-1 ATS and proved they weren't the worst team in Texas Sunday. That's something. If the Bucs' defense keeps the Cowboys below 35 points, that should deliver the under here."
