if 45 year old Brady, who missed nearly all of Camp, and a heavily depleted Bucs team, rolls in here and wins, MM is in trouble. Its a shame if that happens.

No reason why he wouldn't pick us to win Tampa's o-line is probably more compromised than ours
Dak is healthy and in theory should be able to handle the lack of experience on our o line by making some plays with his legs.

I really don't see Brady having that option but he is smart and can get the ball off quickly and is going to have to do so because I believe we are going to be on him like white on rice.

Zeke is at least healthy and could surprise us in the running game. Turpin is the x Factor that could break the game wide open in special teams or from the slot.

Tampa Bay didn't really run the ball much last year and didn't have a really good running game Leonard Fournette came into camp out of shape and that does not bode well for them.

Hammer Brady early and often along with eliminating our offensive line penalties and we got this game.

Not surprised. Common sense would tell you the Cowboys should beat the Bucs. Brady is 45 years old vs Dak who is 29, The best players on the defenses are Parsons and Diggs although Vita and White are really good. I will be surprised if a 45 year old lights up this Cowboys defense.
Common sense lol

a 44 year old Brady lit us up, but a 45 year old Brady is just washed.....

Common sense, people lol

For those speculating Payton coaching Dallas, keep in mind Payton is technically still under contract with the Saints for 3 more years. Therefore, if Dallas wanted Payton they would have to pay the Saints compensation in the form of draft picks. Seeing as how the Saints gave up their 2023 1st round pick and 2024 2nd round pick to the Eagles to move up in this year's draft, one can presume the minimum return for the Saints allowing Payton to coach another team would be a 2023 1st and 2024 2nd.

So, would Dallas be willing to give up that kind of draft picks (and the money to sign Payton which could be expensive seeing as how Miami was reported to have offered him a 5-year $100 Million contract to coach the Dolphins while also signing Tom Brady; this was revealed as tampering and the Dolphins were punished for it) to replace MM with Payton?

Well Payton basically beats TB and the Bucs every time they play. He thinks it’s easy.

little does he know nothing is easy around here

So do realistic Cowboys fans, Sean. It's a no brainer.

44 year old Brady dropped 380 yards and 4 TDs on us last year.

Maybe he missed a lot of camp, but he and the rest of the Bucs starters played in the final preseason game.... that's more action than any of our guys saw.

Brady is going to be just fine, so don't get your hopes up.

I loved all of the praise he was heaping on Dan Quinn and the defense. Personally, I would LOVE IT if we could manage to keep Quinn as FC if Payton were to take over. I think they’d make for an AMAZING combination.

If we have more post-season failure, this may be closer to happening than you think.

I feel bad for anybody pressed to pick week 1 matchups. Too many teams with significant personnel changes

You would pick a 50 year old Brady to beat the Cowboys. Not surprised.:rolleyes:o_O
I would pick a Tom Brady lead team to beat the Cowboys until the Cowboys show that they can beat a Tom Brady lead team.

I wouldn't pick Tom Brady himself to beat the Cowboys because Tom Brady is just the QB and he wouldn't do very well if he is the only one playing.

Good job getting him in line!!

Let him know that you have more faith in the other team and or their players than he has or should have in his.

That's right. Same thing applies to Dak.

Tell us you have more faith in the Cowboys than you do the Tom Brady lead Bucs so we can all laugh and make fun of you.

Go on... say it.
