What happened: The Dallas Cowboys have ended a league-leading 61.1% of their offensive possessions with a score this season. The San Francisco 49ers sit second at 52.6%.

Why it matters: This elite finishing rate has helped the Cowboys build a 4-3 record despite some third-down inconsistencies. Dallas brings this efficiency into their scheduled matchup against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

By the numbers: The Jacksonville Jaguars (51.3%), Buffalo Bills (50.0%) and Detroit Lions (50.0%) round out the top five scoring offenses on a per-drive basis.

What to watch: Dallas hosts Tampa Bay in their next game.
