Date\/Time: Saturday, Dec.17 8:20 p.m. (ET)<\/strong> Game time is set for 8:20 p.m. and it will be broadcast nationally on the NFL Network.<\/p>\n Just when it looked like Dallas was on its way to a division title, two missed field goals have its season on the brink of collapse. A 19-13 overtime loss to Arizona as a four-point road favorite in Week 13 and a 37-34 loss to the Giants as a 3.5-point home favorite this past Sunday night dropped the Cowboys to 7-6 straight-up (4-8-1 against the spread) and into a tie with New York at the top of the East.<\/p>\n The total has gone 6-7 in their 13 games.<\/p>\n You cannot blame Tony Romo for Dallas\u2019s current situation. Over the past two games he has thrown for over 600 yards and five touchdowns with no interceptions.<\/p>\n One area that is in trouble is the Cowboys\u2019 running game after rookie sensation DeMarco Murray was lost for the season with a broken ankle.<\/p>\n Tampa Bay\u2019s woes started with its trip to London to play Chicago. Since the 24-18 loss to the Bears as a 1.5-point underdog, this team has lost seven-straight games to fall to 4-9 both SU and ATS.<\/p>\n The total has gone \u2018over\u2019 in eight of its 13 games. [soliloquy id=”82219″]<\/p>\n The problems with the Buccaneers have been across the board this season with an offense that is averaging just 17.8 points a game to go along with a defense that is giving-up an average of 28.5 points.<\/p>\n The Cowboys are 1-6 ATS in their last seven games overall and 2-3-1 ATS in their last six games on the road.<\/p>\n The total has stayed \u2018under\u2019 in three of their last four road games.<\/p>\n The Buccaneers are also 1-6 ATS in their last seven games and 2-5 ATS in seven home games this season.<\/p>\n The total has gone \u2018over\u2019 in three of their last four games at home.<\/p>\n These teams met in Tampa in 2009 and Dallas ran away with a 34-21 victory as a five-point favorite.
