The Buccaneers and Cowboys build-up has been all about Tom Brady

Micah Parsons recently tweeted that he is confident that he and the Cowboys will be going to the Super Bowl. With that level of confidence, there may be hope for the Cowboys to end Brady's dominance over them. Tom Brady's winning streak has been mentioned in nearly every soundbite and preview for this huge game.

Despite Prescott's proclivity to throw an interception in games where he makes over 25 throws is a huge concern. However, the Cowboys have a decent points per game (PPG) average of 27.5, which ranks fourth in the NFL.

This compares to the Buc's 18.4 PPG, which is 25th in the league. This is one of the most anticipated games of the Wild Card round and we hope it lives up to the hype.

An interesting note is that Tom Brady has never faced the Cowboys in the playoffs, with all of his victories against them coming during the regular season. It remains to be seen if he will be able to maintain his winning record against the Cowboys in a playoff setting, as the stakes will be significantly higher.

Will he be able to rise to the challenge and extend his winning streak? We will find out on Monday.
