Terry Bradshaw has always been a loose cannon, but his latest on-air moment before the Chiefs vs. Eagles Super Bowl has fans wondering if it’s finally time for him to hang it up. The dude’s been dropping unfiltered takes for years, but this time, he had Michael Strahan and Howie Long looking all kinds of uncomfortable—like, ‘did he really just say that?‘ levels of awkward.

During a segment, Bradshaw went on a rant about the pressure of winning, acting out what he claimed fans used to yell at him: “Hey Bradshaw, hey boy! You better win this sucker again next year, you hillbilly, or we’ll run your a– out of here.” Bro… what? Strahan’s face said it all—he was not vibing. The clip immediately went viral, with NFL insider Dov Kleiman posting it on X (formerly Twitter) with the caption, “It might be time for Terry Bradshaw to retire 😂.” And honestly? A lot of people agreed.

Fans have been side-eyeing Terry Bradshaw’s takes for a while, saying his humor and commentary are starting to feel like they belong in a different era. Even he kinda knows it’s almost over. During Super Bowl media week, he admitted, “I got two years left at Fox. I’m 76. It’s a young man’s game. I get that…if we can get to the next Super Bowl, I’ll be 80. I think that’s time.”

So yeah, people are definitely talking, and at this point, it’s looking like the retirement convo isn’t just Twitter noise—it might actually be happening soon.

One fan went straight for the jugular, saying, “Decades past time. JFC he’s senile.” Yikes. It’s clear some people think Bradshaw isn’t just past his prime, but completely out of touch with the current era of sports broadcasting. While some still find his wild takes entertaining, others think it’s getting harder to watch. Another fan didn’t hold back either, writing, “It was time for him to retire 3 years ago. He’s got a bad case of the Bidens.” Brutal. The message here? People think Terry Bradshaw has been struggling on-air for a while now, and at this point, it’s just getting worse.

Some fans are just over it. “Bradshaw is ‘over the hill’ and needs to retire for good!”. Another chimed in with, “I noticed Bradshaw wasn’t on the postgame show, he needs to go, and it’s about 15 years too late to be honest”. A lot of people feel like FOX has been holding on to him for way too long. And it’s starting to show.

Then, there was the most savage take of all: “Time for him to amuse others at puzzle night in a senior home.” Oof. That one might sting a little, but it pretty much sums up how a lot of viewers feel. Terry Bradshaw’s broadcasting days might be behind him.
