Tom Brady made his debut as an NFL analyst on Fox Sports, calling the Dallas Cowboys’ victory over the Cleveland Browns, and he has called many more games for America’s team in the weeks following.
That also included Sunday’s blowout loss to the Detroit Lions.
The Detroit Lions made a statement in their 47-9 blowout over the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday, and Tom Brady was not thrilled by what he saw from the Cowboys.
Tom Brady couldn’t help but notice the stark difference between the Cowboys and Lions as he ripped Dallas on air late in the game.
Brady said on FOX Sports: “Yeah, they’re just going in [different] directions. Certainly, Detroit is going in the direction they want to go.
“[Lions Head Coach] Dan Campbell made a great comment, ‘We don’t want to be stuck in the mud.’
“Dallas is just struggling in the same ways they have in so many of these games. They can’t run it, they are struggling to be physical, Dak’s frustrated, too many turnovers, just not good enough.”

“And I can see, even though he’s been up and even though they’ve got a great lead at half-time and even though they’ve had a great lead to start the first quarter they are still playing aggressive.
“They are still executing, they still have higher expectations for themselves.
“And Dallas, on the other hand, they’re just struggling the same way they have in so many of these games.
“They can’t run it, they’re struggling to be physical on both sides of the front – offensive line [and] defensive line.
“Dak’s frustrated, too many balls up in here, too many turnovers, and just not good enough, Tom Brady said as he finished his assessment on the Dallas Cowboys.
When it came to the Lions, Tom Brady was sold on the idea that Jared Goff & Co. are once again Super Bowl contenders.
“Absolutely,” Brady said. “I just think their ability to play on offense — there’s so many styles to play. They’ve got this two-headed monster [David Montgomery and Jahmyr Gibbs] at [running] back, creative play-calling. Everybody’s involved. They got [wide receiver Kalif] Raymond involved.
“Gibbs played, he played pretty well today, but at the same time, it wasn’t this electric performance that we’ve seen from him. They got [Amon-Ra] St Brown, [Sam] LaPorta. They just have weapons, and obviously, it all starts with that offensive line. The way they dominate the line of scrimmage, you can get any pass rush, Goff is back there surveying the field. They just seem like they got everything rolling. And on defense, they’re up there challenging people. They’re playing man coverage, challenging every single play. And it’s frustrating when you’re a quarterback and there’s no easy throws out there.
“They’re going to be tough to stop. I think they’ve got a lot of humility in that locker room. They got a lot of guys that are playing for one another. … Man, the Lions are a tough team to beat.”
The Dallas Cowboys Are Not Good
The Lions dominated the Cowboys in a 47-9 blowout at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas.
It was as humiliating an ordeal as the Dallas Cowboys have experienced, let alone on their own field.
The Cowboys lost their fourth consecutive home game, and they look like a team that is not only not a Super Bowl contender but may not even qualify for the postseason.
