Fans were quick to compare the NFL’s biggest new analytical minds after Week 1 of the season, and there’s apparently only one winner!
Tom Brady and Jason Kelce sat down for their first assignments with Fox and ESPN respectively over the past few days, with all eyes on them ready to see if they would be as good at talking about the game as they were playing it.
While Brady received plenty of criticism for his first game in the booth on Sunday night, it was a much different scenario for Jason Kelce, who fans labeled “brilliant” after his first appearance on Monday Night Countdown.
Within seconds of going on air, Kelce claimed his “tits were fighting” inside his shirt, leaving fans in hysterics as they watched in disbelief from home.
By comparison, Brady was branded “atrocious” 20 minutes into the game, with one fan joking: “Maybe someone should have listened to Tom Brady say some words before spending $300 million on him.”
Jason Kelce was a natural fit, having appeared on ESPN for his first assignment as an analyst.
Meanwhile, Tom Brady received a lot of criticism from fans for his debut appearance on FOX.
Fans claimed Kelce was “1000 times better” as comparisons were drawn between the two.
The legendary quarterback was also criticized for stating that “it’s hard to get 10 yards, but very hard to get 20 yards.”
Following Jason Kelce’s debut, the reaction couldn’t have been more different, with television viewers praising his carefree attitude and humorous style.
As for X, many fans were quick to compare the two players, with one writing, “It’s official, Tom Brady has nothing on Jason Kelce as a football analyst. I give Brady one season at most!”
There’s plenty of time for viewers to make up their minds, but Kelce is the fan favorite, so…

Another added: “Jason Kelce is 1000 times better than Tom Brady on TV,” while another noted: “Damn Jason Kelce beat Brady in the Super Bowl and as a broadcaster.”
One X user even ran a poll asking fans to vote for which analyst they preferred, and Kelce earned a whopping 83.3% of the vote.
The pair will face off again in Week 2 of the NFL season, with Brady and FOX in Arizona to watch the Cardinals host the Los Angeles Rams.
Meanwhile, Kelce is back home in Philadelphia, with his beloved Eagles taking on the Atlanta Falcons.
