Tom Brady was shot at Peyton Manning during the Cowboys-Lions broadcast

Tom Brady was on the microphone for the non-competitive affair between the Detroit Lions and Dallas Cowboys on Sunday afternoon. The Lions started scoring early and didn't let up, outscoring the Cowboys 47-9 as the clock reached quadruple zeros.

At the start of the fourth quarter, the Lions were leading 37-9 and had the ball on the Cowboys' goal line. They had two touchdowns set back due to penalties before finally kicking a field goal to extend their already insurmountable lead. One of the flags led to a joking shot from Brady about Peyton Manning and the Denver Broncos' record-setting offense in 2013.

A TD throw from Jared Goff to Jameson Williams was rejected due to pass interference on a pick play, where a receiver runs into another defender to free his teammate. Brady had some thoughts.

“Over the years, they've gotten more and more strict about calling those pick plays. Each long distance contact draws a flag. I watched Peyton Manning throw 55 touchdowns, there were more pick plays in that offense than in the history of NFL football. Since then.” then they cracked down.

A pretty funny observation from the all-time star.

There could also be some frustration on the part of Brady, who can lay claim to being the most competitive quarterback in NFL history. He played those Broncos and their pick plays in the 2013 AFC Championship Game with a chance to go to the Super Bowl. But Brady and the New England Patriots lost 26-16.

Manning set the NFL record for most passing touchdowns in a season that year, and it still stands. But his team was defeated by the Seattle Seahawks in Super Bowl XLVIII.
