On Sunday, the Kansas City Chiefs face the Philadelphia Eagles. Patrick Mahomes, Travis Kelce, and the rest of the Chiefs see this as the perfect chance for revenge. That alone makes the game thrilling. On the other side, Jalen Hurts and the Eagles aim for their third straight win over Kansas City. This matchup brings extra excitement because Tom Brady will call the game. Although his start in broadcasting was rocky, this event represents a golden chance to redeem himself.
One step away from redemption behind the mic
According to The Sports Rush, Brady’s first NFL broadcasting season was far from smooth. He stumbled during a Packers vs. Eagles playoff game, when FOX paired him with Kevin Burkhardt.

Before halftime, the former quarterback slipped: “Three timeouts, so you’d get a couple of plays. But I like this decision by the Phillies… excuse me, Philadelphia.” By mistake, he credited the city’s baseball team instead of its football team.
Later, he confused Josh Jacobs with Brandon Jacobs, a retired Giants running back. That blunder made NFL fans question whether he was ready for the role.
Now, Brady must answer those doubts. On Sunday, he will lead the broadcast of Eagles vs. Chiefs, one of the season’s most anticipated games. Fans expect him to deliver with the seriousness and respect the showdown deserves.
