Tom Brady led two game winning drives vs Micah Parson and the defense to win the game. The defense couldn’t stop him when it was required to win the game and got zero sacks.


If Cowboys are going to win a playoff game against Bucs they must get sacks especially in the 4th qtr and last 2 minutes. Brady is going to get the ball out fast but Quinn must counter it with press coverage using 2 high safety help over top and allow pass rushers to sack him. Last of all play penalty free game!

It was the defense's fault Dallas scored 3 points.

Cowboys had 16 rushing attempts between Zeke and Pollard and the Cowboys only scored 3 points. Not exactly on the defense.

Side note: the entire team didn't look ready to play. Resting the starters in preseason turned out to be a horrible decision.

So the previous season when they scored points and had a lead did the defense allow Brady to go on a game winning drive?

Didn’t the same thing happen vs Rodgers?

..it's fair to say. That Dallas team, is no more. We have new bodies, and better system of play.
12-4, Is the result of it. They'll be ready this time.

Since that confrontation, both teams went into different directions. We were supposed to be 6-9 or 7- 8
Now we're here. Chin up.

Every team that beat a Tom Brady playoff team, and there really aren't that many, got pressure on him and played a very physical game.
That's it in a nutshell.
That's how you beat Tom Brady in the postseason.
Can we do it? Yes.
Do we have the players to achieve it? Yes we do.
Will we be able to do that? That remains to be seen.
The Dallas Cowboys never play up to their potential in the playoffs in the Jerry Jones era. I don't know if they will start now unfortunately.

Who said this was defensive led team?

I don’t know. You claimed, “game was on the line in the fourth quarter.” I’m asking, when in the fourth quarter? It was a three score game at the start. The offense hadn’t moved the ball all night and was then being guided by Cooper Rush.

The game hadn’t been competitive since the second quarter when the Bucs, leading 6-3, were driving and Micah had a sack on third down to set up a longer FG, which was missed. The offense then took over and promptly threw an interception.

Ball game.

That’s what happened in our universe. I have no idea where in the multiverse you were watching the game.

It’s called a game winning drive because Cowboys were up or tied and the defense allowed Bus to score to win the game. :huh::facepalm:

What the hell are you talking about? One video was from the very first game in 2021, which as also Parson's very first NFL game, and that featured very different Cowboy defense than 2022 (not to mention a much less successful Bucs offense).

The second video was Bucs against the Rams, so it has nothing to do with the Cowboys at all.

THIS YEAR the Cowboys defense only gave up 19 points against the Bucs, and the Cowboys never had the lead after the Bucs tied the game with 5:05 in the 1st quarter, then followed by taking the lead with 1:06 left in the 1st quarter. There was no scoring at all by either team in the 4th quarter.

Actually Tampa Bay has been fortunate to play Dallas week 1 the last two years.

Last year that was Quinn's first game as DC. The defense was still trying to find themselves.

This year the horrible decision not to play any starters in the preseason showed. The offense was not ready.

If Dallas plays TB in the playoffs I believe it will be a game where the offense performs like last year and the defense performs like this year. If this happens, Dallas will win.

RIGHT NOW...our Offense has been playing well and scoring points. It's our Defense that has been underperforming. Everyone knows this.
