Tom Brady just made his broadcasting debut alongside famous play-by-play commentator Joe Buck and things didn’t exactly go as planned. Buck has been calling NFL games since 1994 and his experience speaks for itself. There is no doubt he is arguably amongst the very best in the business. Based on the reactions from people who are criticizing Tom Brady for his analysis performance, Buck came out to defend his teammate. He was a guest on ‘The Michael Kay Show’ where. In a nutshell, judging Tom Brady after just one game is extremely unfair and people need to wait for him to get more comfortable behind the mic.

There are a lot of keyboard warriors who usually go out and criticize people who are famous from anonymity. Those are the ones Joe Buck is going after by stating the following during the show. Saying: “This is a hard job, and we all do our piece of it. We all have to be able to settle in; know what you need to know. I talked to him on Friday, and I don’t think anybody’s put in more work into being prepared for his first broadcast than Tom did. And now, you have to go forward and settle in. It’s grossly unfair that everybody wants to weigh in after five seconds. That’s not the way it works.”

Why is Tom Brady being criticized?

Speaking on the microphone for millions of people on one of the most famous channels in the world must be a daunting task. During his debut, Tom Brady did sound a little shy and even NFL Network RedZone host Scott Hanson called for Brady to get more excited during the broadcast. Eventually, Hanson quickly apologized and Brady even told him that wasn’t necessary. But the damage was done, people online were quick to go after him after just one day of broadcast.
