Brady and Burkhardt called the first three Dallas Cowboys’ games of the 2024 season: Week 1 at the Cleveland Browns, Week 2 vs. the New Orleans Saints and Week 3 vs. the Baltimore Ravens.

The new duo will call Super Bowl 59 on Feb. 11, which will take place inside the Saints’ home venue, the Caesars Superdome.

Tom Brady Returns To Tampa Bay For Week 4

The NFL icon will return to a familiar place this Sunday, as Brady and Burkhardt will be on the call for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers’ home tilt against the Philadelphia Eagles at Raymond James Stadium.

Brady, of course, quarterbacked the Bucs from 2020 to 2022 and led them to a Super Bowl 55 championship plus two NFC South division titles. Now for the first time, he gets to analyze his former team in the broadcast booth.

Everyone Thinks The Know Which NFL Team Bill Belichick Will Be Coaching Next, And It’s Not The Dallas Cowboys

Football fans on social media think they know which team Bill Belichick will coach next, and it’s not the Dallas Cowboys.

Many fans have linked Bill Belichick to the Cowboys during their slow start, and understandably so. A big-market team like Dallas makes perfect sense for the greatest head coach of all time, and current Cowboys HC Mike McCarthy is in his contract year and unlikely to be retained if the team doesn’t embark on a deep postseason run.

But football fans are predicting that Belichick won’t be coaching America’s Team next. Rather, they believe he will eventually replace Doug Pederson as head coach of the Jacksonville Jaguars.

A flood of tweets called for the Jaguars to hire Belichick during the team’s embarrassing loss to the Buffalo Bills on “Monday Night Football.”

After parting ways with the New England Patriots in January, Belichick became the biggest name available in the head coaching hiring cycle. Surprisingly, the Atlanta Falcons were the only team that interviewed the six-time Super Bowl-winning head coach.

The Falcons hired former Los Angeles Rams defensive coordinator Raheem Morris, and the other teams with HC vacancies passed over Belichick. Unless he’s hired by a team mid-season, 2024 will mark the first year without Belchick employed in the NFL since 1974.

Bill Belichick Is The Perfect Candidate For Jaguars

The Jaguars have too much talent to be 0-3, and to be humiliated by the Bills like this on prime time. Clearly, Doug Pederson isn’t the solution to this team’s never-ending search for a competent long-term head coach.

Belichick is the most decorated head coach in NFL history and would surely be enticed by the chance to take over a team with Jacksonville’s talent. He could do a lot worse than a core of Trevor Lawrence, Christian Kirk, Travis Etienne Jr., Brian Thomas Jr., Josh Hines-Allen and Travon Walker.

VIDEOS: Caitlin Clark Suffered A Nasty Black Eye During Her Playoff Debut After Taking Vicious Cheap Shot From Rival Player Who Openly Mocked Her Earlier In The Season

Caitlin Clark’s first taste of the WNBA playoffs was quite similar to her regular season debut for the Indiana Fever, as they both started with a loss to the Connecticut Sun.

The Fever are back in the playoffs for the first time since 2016 but will have a lot to do by Wednesday if they are to leave a mark.

Clark didn’t enjoy a positive night on the court as she was poked in the eye less than two minutes after tipoff, with Sun guard DiJonai Carrington poking her in the eye. Carrington openly mocked the rookie in a previous matchup, suggesting she flopped. She later took to social media to joke about it, much to the disgust of Fever fans.

You can see the incident in the clip below:

There was no foul called on the play. Clark went to the bench for a brief moment after getting hit in the eye but didn’t leave the game because of it.

Fans didn’t think the hit was inadvertent.

“If Dijonai hadn’t spouted nastiness towards Fever fans and CC all season, I’d say accidental. But her track record with CC leads me to believe it was intentional,” one wrote.

“She pointed her fingers almost straight down. That s**t was intentional,” another said.

Caitlin Clark Refused To Blame Carrington’s Poke For Her Shooting Slump

Clark would go on to have a poor night, shooting just 23.5 percent from the field to score 11 points, adding eight assists and four rebounds. However, she told reporters she didn’t think it affected her.

“Obviously, she got me pretty good in the eye,” she said, per the New York Post. “I don’t think it affected me. I got good shots, they didn’t go down. It’s a tough time for that to happen. Had three wide open in first half that I usually make. It didn’t feel good when it happened but I don’t think it affected me.”

The two sides are scheduled to play their second game of the series this Wednesday, with the third set for Friday.
