Cowboys finally beat Tom Brady, as Dallas routs Tampa Bay

TAMPA, Fla. -- Dak Prescott was clinical as the Dallas Cowboys took care of business on the road against Tom Brady and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Monday in the final game of the opening round of the playoffs.

The Buccaneers were able to get the best of the Cowboys in the season opener, 19-3, but Prescott's five total touchdowns and a dominant defense was too much in the 31-14 wild-card matchup.

The Cowboys will travel to face the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday (6:30 p.m. ET, Fox) in the divisional round.
