Tom Brady says he tries to focus on the positive as a broadcaster: 'It's not about this harsh critique'
Tom Brady wants to be an honest broadcaster, but don't expect to see him ripping your favorite team's quarterback after a missed read. Brady said he wants to focus on player greatness, and isn't interested in "harsh critique" now that he's in the booth. Brady made those comments during an interview with Complex. After being asked a question about Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes, Brady opened up about how he views his role as a broadcaster. "The one position I'm in now as broadcaster, I do feel a responsibility, A, to tell the fans what I see and be honest and upfront about everything. But also realize what these guys are doing on the field is extremely difficult. It's a high level of skill. You're looking at any of the 32 teams who have a starting quarterback out there, that guy is one of the best in the world at what he does. Do they make the right plays all the time? Certainly not. By the way, neither did I. "I think you have to have this context and perspective. You realize that it's not about this harsh critique and that's not really what it's all about anyway. To me, it's more about let's point out the greatness of these individual players ... That's what I want to do on TV." Advertisement Brady's first season as a broadcaster was mixed. He struggled early, though did manage to deliver an honest and emotional assessment of the Chiefs' struggles in the Super Bowl. To put it in football terms, he looked like a rookie out there most of the time, but occasionally showed flashes of promise. While Brady's comments about shying away from "harsh critique" might rub some the wrong way, that's not really the role broadcasters have filled in recent years. The best ones elevate games by breaking down individual plays or telling smart anecdotes that put fans in a player's mindset. You don't typically hear them say things like, "Wow, that was a terrible pass." Of course, there's a fine line to walk between being mean and being honest. Nobody wants Brady — or any other broadcaster — to act like everyone's best friend in the booth. Pointing out why plays aren't working or why a team is struggling is an important duty, and sometimes that requires calling out a player for an inaccurate pass or an untimely drop. Brady seems pretty committed to his new role, so it will be on him to show improvement in Year 2. That's certainly possible given Brady's experience and on-field excellence, but only if he's willing to actually be honest with viewers, especially when a team or player isn't performing well.

Key dates on the NFL's 2025-2026 league calendar that will impact the Ravens
Key dates on the NFL's 2025-2026 league calendar that will impact the Ravens The NFL's official calendar for the next year has been released, and the league unveiled about two dozen key dates starting in July and extending until next summer. The NFL's official calendar for the next year has been released, and the league unveiled about two dozen key dates starting in July and extending until next summer. Baltimore now knows when they'll need to trim the roster down to 53 players, and a hint at the looming trade deadline. With the next year's schedule now completed, here are the key dates to watch. July 15 -- Franchise tag The Ravens don't have any players on the tag. Still, for players like Chiefs offensive lineman Trey Smith, July 15 is the deadline for any club that designated a Franchise Player to sign such a player to a multiyear contract or extension. The Chiefs placed their non-exclusive franchise tag on Smith on Feb. 28. The Pro Bowl offensive lineman will earn $23.4 million on the tag unless a new deal is agreed to before the July 15 deadline. Smith, 26, has started 77 games, including postseason, since being selected in the sixth round of the 2021 NFL Draft. After this date, the player may sign only a one-year contract with his prior club for the 2025 season, and no long-term extension can happen until after the final regular season game. Mid July The Ravens' rookies and select veterans will report to the Under Armour Performance Center for training camp. July 31 -Hall of Fame Game, Los Angeles Chargers vs. Detroit Lions, Canton, Ohio. Jim Harbaugh's revamped Chargers will face Dan Campbell's new-look Detroit Lions in Canton, Ohio. Aug 26: Rosters must be cut down to 53 players After several seasons with multiple cutdown days, the NFL returned to one deadline for teams to trim their rosters. The deadline was adjusted before the 2020 COVID-19-impacted seasons: Roster reduction from 90 to 85 Roster reduction from 85 to 80 Final roster reduction from 80 to 53 Teams can release players at their discretion, but not having three different cutdown dates no longer puts pressure on them during the summer. Aug 31- Final day of preseason training camp for all clubs For the Ravens and every other NFL team, September 1 is a holiday, and the official start of the 2025 regular season. September 1-6 -- Injury reports The first week of September means teams around the league will start officially releasing injury reports. November 4- NFL Trade Deadline The week after Halloween will be exciting this year as teams anticipate an early trade deadline. January 5 - Fifth-year options for players selected in Round 1 of the 2023 NFL Draft This is the first day that Eric DeCosta can offer Zay Flowers long-term extensions. Jan 10-12 Wild Card Weekend powered by Verizon Jan 17-18 Divisional Playoffs presented by Intuit TurboTax Jan 25, AFC and NFC Championship Games presented by Intuit TurboTax. February 8 Super Bowl LX at Levi's Stadium (Santa Clara, California) February 17 Franchise tag Depending on the season, they have Odafe Oweh, Travis Jones, or others, who could be a candidate for the franchise tag. March 9-11 Free Agency "legal tampering" opens Baltimore will have over 30 players set to hit the open market. April 23-25 NFL Draft (Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania)
