Tom Brady’s debut as an NFL analyst didn’t go as planned.
The fans had mixed takes about his first experience in the booth.
Brady was clearly nervous and struggled at times, but that’s something you could only expect with his first time in the booth.
Even so, Brady named his Top 3 NFL Stars from week 1.

At No. 3, he chose Dallas Cowboys star Micah Parsons.
Per Brady, he absolutely dominated on defense, and Brady claimed that he was happy he wasn’t in the pocket during that game, as he logged nine pressures in that game alone.
Then, he chose San Francisco 49ers backup running back Jordan Mason, who filled in for the injured Christian McCaffrey.
Brady pointed out that he logged almost 150 rushing yards on 28 carries, adding that no one was expecting that kind of performance, let alone against one of the absolute best defenses in the league.
Last but not least, Brady talked about Baker Mayfield and how he regretted not taking him for his Fantasy Football team.
He praised the Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback for throwing four touchdown passes vs. the Washington Commanders, including two to his former teammate and friend, Mike Evans.
This was a great selection for the first edition of this show, and it’ll be interesting to see how Brady approaches all the criticism he faced over his highly-anticipated debut as a broadcaster.
