Brady and the Buccaneers defeated the Cowboys in their season opener on the road, 19-3.
While Tampa Bay repeated their Week 1 victory over Dallas last season, their recent matchup had a different tone.
Last year, the Cowboys pushed the Buccaneers to the limit, only to falter in the end.
This time, Dallas had no chance after the Bucs went on a 13-0 run in the second and third quarters.
Brady finished the game by completing 18 passes out of 27 attempts for 212 yards, a touchdown, and an interception.
It’s also his second time defeating the Cowboys as a Buccaneer.
His first five wins over the NFC East franchise came when he was still with the New England Patriots.
The first one happened in 2003 wherein the Patriots earned a 12-0 shutout.
Brady completed 15 passes out of 34 attempts for 212 yards and zero touchdowns in that game.
He also led New England to victories over Dallas in 2007, 2011, 2015, and 2019.
The 2007 victory is Brady’s best game against the Cowboys, finishing with 388 yards and five touchdowns.
In 2021, the former Michigan standout had 379 yards, four touchdowns, and two picks versus Dallas.
Buccaneers Seeking Payback In Week 2
Brady and the Bucs will face the division rival New Orleans Saints in Week 2.
The Saints won both their regular season contests last year and earned a shutout against Tampa Bay.
The Buccaneers would like to maintain their good start by defeating their nemesis.
It won’t be an easy contest because they will be playing on the road once again.
