Since Fox announced it had signed Tom Brady to a 10-year deal as a news analyst, the GOAT’s fans were waiting for his debut. Now, the GOAT has officially begun his broadcasting career with FOX. And started by talking about the Dallas Cowboys’ win over the Cleveland Browns. While there were a few critiques of his performance, the legendary former quarterback did a solid job, with plenty of room to grow.

In Week 2, Tom Brady is fully engaged in his new role as an NFL analyst and has released his NFL Power Rankings for Week 2. The teams he chose are:

1. Kansas City Chiefs

2. San Francisco 49ers

3. Detroit Lions

4. Dallas Cowboys

5. Houston Texans

While giving the ranking, he also praised Mahomes saying, “Listen, they’re the reigning Super Bowl champs. They cannot win the game on opening night and not be the best team. They’re going to be tough to beat all year. Patrick played phenomenal.” Referring to their great win over the Ravens to start the year. While the Chiefs and 49ers were in the top 2 positions, the Patriots could not reach even the top 5. However, this isn’t the only thing fans have been waiting for.

Aside from the rankings, Brady will be announcing the game between the America’s team and New Orleans Saints, two teams that won in Week 1. The Cowboys beat the Browns, while the Saints dominated the Carolina Panthers, where Brady was also present.

But, even though NFL fans respect the legend’s insight, his new rankings have received mixed reactions. One fan said, “It makes me upset because you can’t argue his analysis when he’s the GOAT of football.” Another added, “Hell yeah GOAT! I like these power rankings 🔥.” Some were surprised by the omissions: “Tom, what about New England? Surprised you didn’t pick them number one.” However, many supported his ranking because of his 23 seasons of experience. In which he played 20 with the New England Patriots and his final three with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Everyone knows about the struggle faced by the Patriots in the preseason. When looking closer at team performances and their rankings from other platforms might justify Brady’s rankings.

Does pre-season ranking justify Tom Brady’s top 5?

According to ESPN, the Patriots were ranked 24th overall in the preseason. They faced numerous issues this year. The Patriots concluded the 2024 preseason with a penalty-ridden game against the Washington Commanders, finishing their summer record at 1-2. The team’s defense struggled in front of former teammate Trace McSorley, who threw for 125 yards and covered 40 rushing yards, winning over the Patriots.

Meanwhile, the Kansas City Chiefs wrapped up their preseason with a 33-32 win over the Cleveland Browns. The Chiefs averaged 274 yards per play, 104 rushing yards per game, and had 90 passing completions from 154 attempts, along with 2 interceptions and 6.1 passing yards per attempt, securing them the top spot in the rankings.

These performances are just early indications, and in the upcoming weeks, we’ll see more from these teams to determine the position changes. However, until then, you can let us know your favorite team in the comment section.
