Tom Brady, the legendary NFL quarterback, made his broadcasting debut last Sunday during the Dallas Cowboys and Cleveland Browns game, and he is now gearing up for his second on-air appearance. This time, Brady will be on the call for the highly anticipated match between the New Orleans Saints and the Dallas Cowboys at 1:00 p.m. ET.

While many anticipated Brady to cover the rematch between the Seattle Seahawks and his former team, the New England Patriots, CBS has assigned him to the Saints-Cowboys game due to their doubleheader coverage of the Cincinnati Bengals and Kansas City Chiefs game. Despite the allure of the Seahawks-Patriots matchup, the popularity of the Cowboys makes the Saints-Cowboys game likely to attract a larger audience.

Brady's ongoing involvement in Cowboys games also plays to his advantage. As the Dallas Cowboys are often referred to as "America's Team," their games draw wide attention across the country. Additionally, due to the strict access restrictions imposed on Brady as a result of his upcoming purchase of a stake in the Las Vegas Raiders, it becomes easier for him to prepare when he is consistently working on Cowboys games.

In his broadcasting debut, Brady's performance received mixed reviews, which was somewhat expected given the high expectations placed upon him. Many felt the hype surrounding his debut overshadowed any potential success he could achieve in this new role. However, it is believed that with more experience and practice, Brady will improve.

Furthermore, one aspect that may humanize Brady in this broadcasting role is his ordinary speaking voice. Unlike some broadcasters who consciously try to appear more relatable, Brady's speaking style is not an intentional effort to appear more human. This authenticity may resonate with viewers and help bridge the gap between the superstar athlete and the average football fan.

As Brady continues to adjust to his new broadcasting career, his second appearance will provide further insight into his abilities and potential growth in the industry. Football enthusiasts will be eagerly tuning in to see how the Super Bowl champion quarterback transitions from the field to the commentary booth.
