We seem to play our best ball at home at ATT stadium, and we want the home crowd noise working biggest for us here in Big D".
I'll take my chances playing here.

Now when it comes to most matched up foes ?
Many think it will about the QBs in Brady and Rodgers but there were bigger factors in our defeats with both Bucs and GB.

We gave us big rushing gains by both teams Bucs, Packers - and Bucs are among the worst rush offenses in the NFL but Leonard Fournette went off
for 127 rushing yrds .... Packers led by Aaron Jones (a Cowboys killer) had around 200 yrds rushing.

I'm not thrilled about either.

-Brady throws the ball ultra-fast, and basically reduces games to 7 on 7 matches. Can our DBs hold up? I think he eats Nashon Wright alive. They are stout on defense, especially against the run, and Dak doesn't do well when asked to throw 50 passes.

-Green Bay likes to run the ball, which is our kryptonite, and Aaron Rodgers absolutely owns us.

All in all, I think Tampa's beatable, but it's a toss up. Green Bay is all sorts of wrong for us. GB, healthy Philly, and the 49ers are the NFC teams I have no expectations of success against.
It's going to be a tough road no doubt. Isn't that what the playoffs are all about? Got to play the best to beat the best. That's what makes it fun to watch.

We are a big reason that Green Bay is in the playoff hunt. If we had beaten them there is no way they play the rest of the season with any confidence. I guarantee you they are hoping we get the 2 seed. We had our chance to send Rodgers into an early retirement when we played them earlier. All we did was remind him he owns us and give that team life.

Brady is a tough out, but can certainly be beat and has not shown that he can beat good teams even when he gets a lead. If we don’t beat ourselves (penalties, turnovers) Brady can’t beat us. I’ll take Brady

The #1 team I want to play is TB and #2 isn't close. To kick TB12 out of the playoffs would be most satisfying.

I want to see that sour look on his face when the game is over and him realizing their season just ended at the hands of the Dallas Cowboys.

we clearly are better than Tampa at this point in the season, they barely beat Sam Darnold. That said, you know if Micah just breathes on Tom, the laundry will fly.

As for playing 12 in green, I would prefer to avoid that as he always pulls crap out of his *** at the end.

Regardless of game location, if I had to pick between Brady and Rodgers to face in the playoffs, I would choose Brady because of his age and immobility. Rodgers is looking like a young Rodgers and is able to scramble, unlike Brady.

I’d rather play a home game so GB.

The thing is this earlier in November Green Bay beat Dallas 31-28 in Overtime. Dallas led 28-14 going into the 4th Quarter. They gave up
two long silly TD's to Watson in the 4th Quarter and lost in OT on a Mason FG. Honestly Dallas has the better team they just need pressure
on Rodgers and Joseph out of the secondary. Also our running game much better of late. I like my chances of moving the ball on them and
the biggest thing playing at HOME against them rather than going to Tampa to play Brady

I’m not confident against either team. But at this point, Tampa looks better.
