“You Had Gronk, You Had AB…”: 3x Super Bowl Winner Explains Why Tom Brady is Leading a Weaker Team into the 2022 Season Opener Against The Dallas Cowboys

Tom Brady is an NFL icon. The 45-year-old does not have too many points to prove in his legendary career. However, he will be up for a super clash on September 12 as his side Bucs takes on the Cowboys in the NFL season opener. Brady will be up in arms against the highly rated QB Dak Prescott. 

Meanwhile, talking about the high-octane clash, sports analyst Shannon Sharpe feels the Cowboys are underdogs at their home. “You have got top three players of the year candidates. You have Gronk and you have AB. And you are playing at home. The first game of the season! You get three at home. You are normally favorites to get three points at home. And you are down. I am trying to figure it out. An MVP candidate, a player of the year candidate, and a top wide receiving candidate. And you are down. You know what it means. You are foreshadowing what things are to come,” says the former Tight End.

“Your season is not going to go well, as you predicted. Tom Brady went home for 11 days. We cannot speculate. That is not fair to him or us. Tamba lost one guy for retirement, one guy got traded, and they are still favorites,” adds the 54-year-old, while talking to fellow sports analyst Skip Bayless.

Meanwhile, fans and experts are concerned about the speed and endurance of the NFL GOAT, and whether opponents may target him with concussion tactics. However, the bigger challenge is to match up with the top performers and announce that he is not over yet.

The 29-year-old Cowboys QB, Prescott covered 4449 yards and completed 37 Touch Downs and 10 Interceptions in 2021. His speed and confident attitude has created enough pre-match hype between the two-star players.

Even though Brady is not keen on player versus player battles, it seems the fans are keen on the match-up between the two. As a result, it is not a team battle. There is much more to it. Both stars will look to play to their potential and entertain the fans as the enormous battle gets nearer.
