winner of Dallas / Tampa Bay will travel to SF

Tomorrow night is a career defining game for Dak.
Until now. Out with the old brand, in with the new
I'm a cowboys fan and a dak fan but I don't see them winning in Tampa against Tom in the playoffs. If it's close Tom will win. Dallas will have to blow them out to win.
Two poorly coached teams vying for a shot at losing to SF, and SF gets extra prep time.
I have to admit, I don't much of anything about creative offense. I can just tell you I saw at least 5 plays called by Buffalo that I've never seen once at Dallas. What does Dak have other than Lamb and Hendershot. Nothing.
No doubt. It’s time. He’s got to make this happen tomorrow.
Dak has plenty of weapons. Lamb, Gallup, Shultz is a strong receiving group. Pollard is fantastic. Lines not great but not a sieve. And the Cowboys usually score. But They typically always find a way to Piece together a screw up though. Jacksonville game is a great example. They scored more points on the Jags than anyone else. And still found a loss. Time just win.
The automatic home game in the first round for the division winners is just stupid. This game should be in Dallas.
Betting on the Cowboys or against Brady in the postseason feels like a bad idea… I think the Bucs win.
I don’t think either of these two beats the Niners, though.

Betting on the cowboys at any time seems like a bad idea.
Depends. If Dallas wins and then turns around and loses @ SF, this game won’t even be a footnote on his career.
Its really more of a career defining playoffs for not just Dak, but Dallas as a whole. The path to the NFC championship for Dallas goes through a team with a losing record, and a team on its 3rd string QB who is a barely drafted rookie. Thats about as manageable of a stretch as you can ask for to at least make the conference championship if you don’t have the bye. Cowboys need to take advantage.
I mean they’ve won 12 games two years in a row. They’ve just been horrible in the Playoffs since the mid 90’s. Haven’t even reached the NFC title game since ‘96.
I hope Dak is going on a run.
The NFL loves Brady.
Why did the NFL games feel as scripted as the Royal Rumble?

You can describe Brock Purdy that way but the Niners are probably the best team in the NFL right now. Fantastic coach, 2 great playmakers, and a nasty defense. Winning in SF is not likely for anyone. Look at some of the coaches that are leading these playoff teams. Progressive, young guys for the most part. The Giants are showing how important coaching is.

I'll be shocked if Dallas wins. In postseason its as much about not beating yourself as it is the other team beating you and nobody knows how to make more key mistakes in games than Dallas. Brady will sit back and wait for the key mistake by Dallas and pounce. We've seen this story before.
It'll all depend on which version of the Dallas defense shows up tonight. Dallas' best chance is to jump on Brady early and hold a multiple score lead. Any 1 possession game swings TB's way once the 4th quarter hits.
I was rooting for the Vikings so that if Dallas beats TB they'd get Philly next instead of the SF defense. Hurts still banged up plus Dallas knows Philly better...

There’s no question that SF has been playing well as of late, but I think the NFC is the far weaker conference this season. Its wide open. Case and point, look at what Minnesota did in the regular season, and behold the turd they laid yesterday.
Dallas has an opportunity before them. If they play up to their ability for 2 games in a row, they will be in the NFCCG. They probably won’t, because we’ve seen this song and dance before. But its up to them once again.
This saddens me as someone who grew up loving The Cowboys for so long but not so much in the last 30 years as my interests in Pro-Sports shrunk. Then Dak gets drafted by Dallas and I can get into that. But I hate that Dallas has the worst owner of all time who admits himself he sucks at GM. There's no excuse for such a wealthy and storied franchise be in this current drought.

Minnesota was just lucky as hell all year, that’s all there is to it. If you dig into the stats especially on defense they were dogshìt and weren’t going to have a deep run in the playoffs.
I think its still safe to say they were better much better than the Giants over the course of the season. But they have glaring holes. And every NFC team has one or two big holes, which is the point. Wouldn’t surprise me if Philly or San Fran went all the way to the SB, and it wouldn’t surprise me any more if it was Tampa or NYG.
I just think there are at least three AFC teams (Bills, Bengals, Chiefs) who would all be the runaway favorites to win the NFC.
The Bills statistically are the best team in the NFL. Cincinnatis defense is a little questionable and their pass protection has been better as of late but they give up a ton of sacks. Kansas City has the offense and their defense does just enough.
San Francisco and Philadelphia have really hammered it home on defense and both are very opportunistic with turnovers. Hurts health could still be in question and when does the clock strike midnight for Purdy?
They are both a step above everyone else in the NFC.
These five are the contenders to me in this order.
1) Buffalo
2)Kansas City
3) San Francisco
4) Cincinnati
5) Philly

They need to run dak a little. Get him warmed up. Dak is at his best when he runs down field a little. I've never been impress with Moore.
It’s been that way for years. It’s the perk of winning your division.
