Dallas at Tampa Bay, 1 ET
WHAT TO WATCH FOR: Will the Cowboys really be conservative on offense? Will they simply pound the ball and operate out of a double tight end formation all day? Well, those are the plans with no Terrell Owens and plenty of solid runners in Marion Barber, Felix Jones and Tashard Choice. Another big edge is that offensive coordinator Jason Garrett knows Jim Bates, the Bucs' new defensive coordinator, pretty well, having worked with him in Miami.
Bucs QB Byron Leftwich wants to play a ball-control offense and RB Cadillac Williams should start with Earnest Graham backing him up. Leftwich has all his receivers healthy, especially Antonio Bryant, but his main target figures to be TE Kellen Winslow. There's a good chance of rainshowers during the game.
