Cowboys vs. Buccaneers Preview
This season’s Super Bowl champion Tampa Bay Buccaneers will open up the season against the Dallas Cowboys. The team is hoping to win back-to-back championships for the first time since Tom Brady led the Pats to two consecutive titles in 2003 and 2004.
Tom Brady entering his second season with a strong receiving core of Mike Evans, Chris Godwin and Antonio Brown, tight ends Rob Gronkowski, Cameron Brate and O.J. Howard.
The Cowboys finished with a 6-10 record last season, after losing QB Dak Prescott to a gruesome ankle injury. Prescott will play for the first time since last October, having sat out most of training camp and the entire preseason with a shoulder injury.
Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott believes he is in the best shape of his career, following a disappointing season last year where he only rushed for 979 yards, a career-low.
