Buffalo Bills vs. Dallas Cowboys
Buffalo Bills vs. Dallas Cowboys

The Buffalo Bills are heading south after playing against the New York Jets a week ago. The weather might be better but the game will be just as tough as they take on the Dallas Cowboys, a team that is eager to get on a winning track in the NFL.

The Buffalo Bills meet the Dallas Cowboys in Dallas this Sunday for another important NFL match-up. NFL Week 10 has arrived and both teams are fighting for playoff positioning and the right to lay claim to first place in their divisions and a shot at the Super Bowl. The winner will have a leg up, while the loser will have some work to do down the stretch.

The Bills are coming off a lackluster effort in a 27-11 loss to the New York Jets last Sunday in Buffalo. Ryan Fitzpatrick was picked off twice and the offense put up its lowest point total of the season. The Jets were able to run at will as they have been in recent seasons against Buffalo. In a game where the Bills could have taken control of the AFC East, they are staring up at New York and New England in the division, although all three teams are 5-3.

The Cowboys are coming off a 23-13 victory over the Seattle Seahawks. That game might have been a win in the standings, but it was a loss in the injury column. Top receiver Miles Austin was lost in that game, and will be out for a few more weeks. This will force Tony Romo to look to Jason Witten and Dez Bryant more this Sunday. Rookie DeMarco Murray has been a force on the ground, gaining over 100 yards again against Seattle. He finished 2nd for most NFL rushing yards in week 9.

Injuries are more than a common problem for the Bills so far this season. They have already lost receiver Roscoe Parrish, linebacker Shawne Merriman and defensive tackle Kyle Williams for the season, or in Williams case it is deemed to be a matter of time before his season is shut down. Even kicker Rian Lindell is going to miss action due to a broken shoulder.

This will hurt Buffalo because they don't have a lot of depth. Their success has been due to the surprise play of Ryan Fitzpatrick and a no-name offense that has lead the AFC Conference in scoring. While the defense has been opportunistic, it is susceptible to big plays and being worn down by good running teams. The Jets may have shown other teams how to stop the spread offense Buffalo likes to run.

The fact that this game is in Dallas should favor the Cowboys with the home field advantage. They have been an above average team at home while not playing well at all on the road. The big key for Dallas will be the play of Tony Romo. If the good Romo shows up, he should have no problem putting up numbers on the Bills secondary. If the bad Romo shows up, it could be a long day for Cowboys fans.

Fortunately for both teams, this will be a non-conference game, so a loss for either team won't hurt them as much as a divisional loss would. For Buffalo, this game kicks off a three game road trip, with the next two games against divisional foes (Bills vs Dolphins, then Bills vs Jets) . Buffalo needs to go at least 2-1, but it cannot afford to look past Dallas. Looking past opponents has seemed to haunt Buffalo this season.

Both teams should come out fired up and ready to go this Sunday. For Dallas, a win would put them above .500 this late in the season for the first time since 2009. For the Bills a win would stop there mini-slide and prove that they are not a fluke team. Right now the football odds say that the Cowboys are a six point favorite for the game on Sunday.

That number is dropping as low as 5 in some places as surprisingly enough more people are taking the Buffalo Bills. This may be because of how badly the Cowboys played against the Seattle Seahawks. Now the Cowboys have some injured players back and they will be a much different team when they line up this week against Buffalo.
