NFL playoffs: What happens if the Buccaneers beat the Cowboys in the Wild Card round?
If the Buccaneersbeat the Cowboysin the Wild Card round of the NFL playoffs, Dallas will be officially eliminated. Then, as the No.4seed in the NFC, Tampa Baywould advance to the Divisional round and their next game will be on the road.
If Tampa Bayindeed get a win over Dallas, the Buccaneerswould face the 49ers at San Francisco. There’s no scenario in which the Buccaneerscould host a game in the Divisional round.
