Tom Brady’s retirement combined with Greg Olsen’s popularity puts Fox in a tough situation, JimmyTraina writes
regarding its No. 1 NFL broadcast crew. Tom Brady signed a contract to become the network’s lead analyst when he retired. And Brady retired Wednesday morning.
After getting feedback off that column last week, I was stunned by how many NFL fans don’t want Brady in the booth. Tom Brady is the greatest quarterback of all time, he’s won seven Super Bowls and is one of the most historic figures in sports history. Yet, people don’t want to hear him offer analysis because … he beat their favorite team a lot? Grow up.
But sense of humor and personality are secondary to what Brady can bring to the table. How could a football fan not want Brady’s insight about the game? How could they not want to know what he’s thinking about what a defense is giving a quarterback? How can they not want his analysis during a two-minute drill? Any rational sports fan should want the greatest player at a certain position in any sport to be in a broadcast booth simply because of the unique perspective they can provide.
