NFL legend Tom Brady is one of the most popular athletes with millions of fans around the world including NBA stars and fans. Despite his personal issues, age, and on-field struggles, Brady still led the Tampa Bay Buccaneers to the playoffs. Given his age, many believe this could be his last season in the league. On the other hand, if he is going to be retiring, his fans wanted him to win the Super Bowl again and go out with a bang. So there was a huge expectation when the Buccaneers faced Jerry Jones’ Dallas Cowboys in the opening round of playoffs.

But Brady and his fans were left with frustration as the Cowboys eliminated the Buccaneers away from home. With a dominant display, the Dallas side went on to win the game comfortably with a scoreline of ?31-14. Dak Prescott played a huge part in the win with five massive touchdowns. On the other hand, Brady had one of his worst playoff performances ever.
