Both teams have their work cut out for them. The Dallas Cowboys will take on Tom Brady and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers first. The Bucs have been lingering around mediocrity all season. But that doesn’t mean that it won’t be a tough matchup. Going up against Brady can result in the least expected outcome- as history would show. On the other hand, Tyreek Hill and the Dolphins may be even more burdened while stepping into the postseason. Without QB Tua Tagovailoa to shepherd them against the dominant Buffalo Bills, the road ahead will be an uphill climb.
