San Francisco

Seattle

Tampa Bay

If you look at SF, it’s realistic that they can go on a losing spree. Their schedule is tough and I can see a scenario that they lose many games in December.


Despite what happened last year, I would like my shot at SF again to get that taste out of my mouth from last year


Dallas has not shown that they can beat elite qbs like Rodgers or Brady and until they do so, I am not going to give them the benefit of the doubt

the correct answer here is SEA


They would be playing against a third string qb and I do trust Dak and our defense to outplay Mr Purdy

I want to win 4 playoff games. Don’t care a bit which teams. Just win. If we’re as good as we think we are, we can beat any team, anywhere. Fear no one. If you’re good, you can and should be able to beat any team. Bring it.

The 49ers would kill us out of the gate. They had Dak looking like a high school quarterback, and our offense looking like Mr. Bean on a dance floor.

The Bucs had Dak so confused I was requesting a close-up shot to see if tooth picks were keeping his eyes open. Besides, Brady is our Kryptonite. We'd mess around and keep the score close, and then he'd snatch a victory away from us in the final seconds of the game.

I'd rather face the Seahawks first if given an option. I think we need a confidence builder before facing either of the aforementioned.

But we'll eventually need to beat one of them at some point. I just hope our coaches are ready, because, honestly, it's going to be coaching that either advances us through the playoffs or derails us right from the start.

Anyone but SF.

They have the best chance to lock down our run game and make us throw it, and I don’t think we have the weapons to win that way against playoff teams.

I want to play them too. And at full strength so I hope Garrapolo is seeing a foot guru. This team still needs to prove it can be a force come playoff time and what better way than to take on and beat the physical team that beat you the previous season. If we lose again, then we know we're still not cut out for this thing they call the playoffs. I'd rather know what we are, even if it means 1 and done. Duck no one. Beat everyone. If you can't, then you weren't the one to begin with. I'm okay with the truth even if it doesn't favor what I want.

I personally hope we play Tampa, SF and Filly. Don’t care the order. If you want to be the best, you must beat the best. All the great Cowboys teams of the past were great based on beating the best. Why not this Cowboys team?

I think we can whoop TB as long as we don’t beat ourselves. SF and Philly are tough matchups but you gotta beat the best.

Fingers crossed.

Of the current playoff teams, this is my ranking of who I’d want to face to who I’d least want to face.

1. Seahawks
2. Vikings
3. Giants
4. Bucs
5. Eagles
7. 49ers

Out of your list, Seahawks definitely. We get weak in the knees for Brady and we never play well against the 49ers. They practically own us. And after last year’s playoffs…. I’d prefer to avoid them.

The 9ers totally bullied us around last year and it had nothing to do with who was playing QB

the one big difference was that due to Neal’s injury Micah played more a traditional LB role way too many snaps that game and I doubt we make that dumb mistake again.
