Dallas Cowboys kicker Brett Maher is not having a great game despite his team winning 18-0 in the playoff game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in their backyard. He has till now missed four field goals.
Fans are trolling him on social media for his poor show. Some are even posting links to places where he might find a job since the believe the Cowboys might fire him after such a poor show.
Dak Prescott outplayed Tom Brady, throwing for four touchdowns and running for another to lead the Dallas Cowboys to a 31-14 victory over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in an NFC wild-card playoff game on Monday night.
Prescott completed 25 of 33 passes for 305 yards and played turnover-free ball for the first time in eight games as the Cowboys (13-5) dominated the listless Bucs (8-10) in what may turn out to be Brady’s last game in a Tampa Bay uniform.
Dallas beat Brady for the first time in the seven-time Super Bowl champion’s career and won in the postseason on the road for the first time in 30 years to earn a trip to San Francisco to face the 49ers in the NFC divisional round next Sunday.
