The Dallas Cowboys are only a few days away from playing the biggest game of the season. They will be traveling to Florida this Monday to play against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
Many of you know by now that the Cowboys are 0-7 against Quarterback Tom Brady in his career. This is making many fans question whether or not the ‘Boys can come out of this game with a win.
However, many fans also know that Tampa is NOT a good team this season.
So, what’s going on?
People are worried that a talented Cowboys team can’t handle a pathetic 8-9 team, this doesn’t seem right.
There are two big reasons why Dallas fans fear this matchup.
- The Cowboys have been in postseason play over the last 20 years, yet haven’t won many playoff games since 2000 and struggle in big games.
- Tom Brady.
As stated previously, Tom is 7-0 against the Cowboys in his career. He even beat them earlier this year with a score of 19-3.
So, what’s the secret formula I have to defeat Tom Brady?
Am I saying a single word can ruin his entire game plan?
Yes actually, but it’s not just the word itself, it’s the meaning.
The simple word is — ignore.
Tom Brady feeds off of fear, he feeds off of teams who think he’s the “GOAT”. I always hated that term used on him because it basically tells the opponents that they are gonna lose.
If teams (such as the Cowboys) were simply to ignore this trait, they could be looking at a victory this Monday.
You see, Tom Brady plays the mental game when he’s on the field. Do you really think this 45-year-old guy can outlift and overpower guys like Linebacker Micah Parsons? No, he can’t. That’s why he relies on screwing his opponents up through his mind games.
If you were to look into that man’s eyes when playing against him, he sends a certain feeling down your spine that makes you shiver.
He has fire inside of him that’s unexplainable. Those aren’t even just my words. Micah Parsons stated terms similar to these earlier this year.
Micah Parsons on Tom Brady: "We got to get him out this league. He's been dominating this league too long." … "He has that fire inside of him. He looks to kill you. He wants to step on your throat like you a roach. That's what you look for in competitors."

So, what does the word “ignore” have to do with any of this?
If the Cowboys just focus on themselves and playing football this Monday, we can win. The team can’t be scared to play against Tom Brady like everyone else. The Cowboys players need to understand that they are more talented than the entire Buccaneers team.
I am basically just saying, don’t let this old man scare you. This guy shouldn’t even be holding a football at his age let alone trying to ruin the Cowboys’ season.
The entire team needs to be told that they are stronger than the Bucs and to IGNORE Tom Brady and his tricky ways of getting you off your game.
Tom Brady needs a wake-up call, he needs to learn that the NFL is done with giving him handouts. And the Cowboys are the team to do it. Let’s hope that the team can go to Tampa this Monday with enormous amounts of confidence and belief in themselves that they can take down this so-called “GOAT God.”
