The Cowboys’ pass-rushers came to play on Sunday, given that the team had a chance to win the NFC East title against the Bucs, and Jaylon Smith showed just how fast he is on one particular play.
Dallas was coming off its worst loss of the season, a 23-0 shutout in Indianapolis, but the team rebounded in a big way.
The team jumped out to a 7-3 lead, and the defense produced a huge play to extend it — setting the tone for the rest of the contest. Randy Gregory destroyed Bucs quarterback Jameis Winston with a blindside hit, which jarred the ball loose. Smith picked it up and raced 69 yards to the house, showing just how fast he is.

The Cowboys never trailed from that point on, and the Bucs never really recovered from that play. As for Smith, he’s an absolute stud.
