[View in browser]( [FOX SPORTS INSIDER WITH MARTIN ROGERS] In today’s FOX Sports Insider with guest writer Ralph Vacchiano: The Cowboys and 49ers have played some great games, but which are the most special? … The Jaguars' offseason moves were disliked by many, but those decisions are paying dividends now … and more! The excitement of the finest playoff game of Dak Prescott's career only lasted until he realized what team he'd play next. The Dallas Cowboys' starting quarterback was electric Monday night, throwing four touchdown passes as he ousted Tom Brady and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. But the prize for that was a trip to San Francisco to face the team that caused him nightmares last year. "(For) me and this team, that's a scar," Prescott said, remembering how the 49ers knocked the Cowboys out of the playoffs one year ago. "That one hurts. It will hurt for the rest of my career." Yes, that 49ers-Cowboys wild-card game — won by the 49ers, 23-17 — really was that memorable, as the postseason battles between these two storied franchises almost always are. When the Cowboys (13-4) and 49ers (13-4) meet in the divisional playoffs at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, Calif., on Sunday (6:30 p.m. ET on FOX and the FOX Sports app), it will be the ninth time Dallas and San Francisco have faced off in the playoffs. The Cowboys have won five of them. The 49ers have won three. And so many of them have become NFL classics. The rivalry has been filled with great games and great moments, miracle victories and agonizing defeats, with everything from Jimmy Johnson's guarantee to "The Catch."

[BET OF THE DAY] Odds provided by [FOX Bet]( Cincinnati Bengals at Buffalo Bills: Bengals (+5.5) to lose by fewer than 5.5 points, or win outright From FOX Sports Betting Analyst: Sam Panayotovich Can Joe Burrow rise above a battered Bengals offensive line? Left tackle Jonah Williams (dislocated kneecap) and right guard Alex Cappa (ankle) are both listed as "week-to-week," and both players are likely out for Sunday’s meeting against the Bills. And right tackle La’el Collins remains out with a torn ACL and MCL. So Cincinnati is down three starting linemen. Respected bettors were quick to lay the Bills from -4 to -5.5, and some shops in Las Vegas touched -6 before the eventual resistance from Bengal bettors entered the market at +6. That’s a heavy adjustment from Buffalo being a 1.5-point favorite in Cincinnati just a couple weeks ago. I am enticed by the bloated number and will take the points with Burrow and his extremely talented offense. Ja’Marr Chase and Joe Mixon are difference makers, and let’s not act like Burrow didn’t perform with a mangled line last postseason. Cincinnati beat Tennessee despite Burrow taking nine sacks. This kid is different on the big stage. For the latest betting odds, [click here](.
