Tom Brady and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers will travel to face Dak Prescott and the Dallas Cowboys in the first Sunday Night Football game of the 2022 season.

The two teams will face each other in a rematch of last season's opener. The Buccaneers won last season's matchup in a thrilling 31-29 contest. Hostilites will be renewed but this time in Dallas.

Last year, the Cowboys finished the season 12-5 before losing the Wild Card round to the San Francisco 49ers. The Buccaneers went 13-4 before losing in the divisional round to future champions, the Los Angeles Rams.

The 44-year-old quarterback is undefeated in games against Dallas. Having played them five times as a New England Patriot and once as a Buccaneer, Brady has won all six and seems to have the edge over America's team.
