A season to forget for Tom Brady and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Division champion, but with a negative record, the Florida franchise disappeared in the first round of the NFL play-offs on Monday, clearly dominated at home by the Dallas Cowboys (31-14). The Texans have signed one of their best play-off victories for many years. It had even been thirty years since they had won an away finals match.
Dallas quickly widened the gap, going as far as leading 24-0 in the third quarter. Dak Prescott, his quarterback, had a great night, throwing 305 yards and four touchdown passes (including two for tight end Dalton Schulz). Brett Maher, the Cowboys kicker, “distinguished” himself by missing four conversion kicks.
Brady’s last game with Tampa Bay?
On the Tampa Bay side, Tom Brady gained 351 yards and threw two touchdowns. Insufficient to reverse the score. In the first period, Brady had conceded an interception, while his team was at the gates of the end zone. The Buccaneers also suffered on the ground game, gaining just 52 yards.
Brady’s season is over. Was it also his last with Tampa Bay? The NFL legend, seven-time Super Bowl winner, will indeed become “ free agent “. The Dallas Cowboys will visit the San Francisco 49ers next weekend in the conference semifinals.
