THE TEAM NEWS
DALLAS COWBOYS
- Dallas Cowboys endured a disappointing campaign last time around as they finished third in the NFC East with a 6-10 record with a spot in the play-offs evading them despite the lack of quality in what was a weak division.
- The Cowboys suffered a damaging blow with star QB Dak Prescott succumbing to a gruesome ankle injury in Dallas’ week 5 clash with New York Giants but he has worked hard to overcome that issue and could take to the field in this encounter.
TAMPA BAY BUCCANEERS
- Tampa Bay Buccaneers secured their second Super Bowl success thanks to a dominant performance against Kansas City Chiefs in last season’s showpiece and they appear to be in a good place to have a shot at defending their title.
- Led by legendary QB Tom Brady in his first season for his new team, the Buccaneers did a real number on the Chiefs with Brady starring, although their defensive effort was arguably more important as they restricted the high-powered offense to just three field goals.
THE PREDICTION
Tampa Bay Buccaneers take to the field as Super Bowl champions
following last season’s brilliant success against Kansas City Chiefs.
Their defense played a huge role in their success last year and that
will be an integral part of their efforts to defend their crown. They
come up against Dallas Cowboys in this season opener and the road team
have a lot to do to improve on last season’s poor campaign. They were
hampered by injuries but even with some key players getting healthy,
this is a tough game to kick-off and the Bucs should be too good.
