Jared Goff better watch his back.<\/p>\n

As the Lions destroyed the Cowboys<\/a>\u00a0on Sunday in Dallas, the seven-time Super Bowl-winning quarterback-turned-Fox broadcaster couldn\u2019t stop raving about the road team\u2019s offense, expressing he would have a ball with Detroit.<\/p>\n

\u201cI would love to be [the] quarterback of this offense,\u201d Brady told play-by-play caller Kevin Burkhardt, who originally asked him how much fun he would have had playing in this offense.<\/p>\n

\n<\/span><\/span>\u201cAgain, there\u2019s a lot of variety to choose from. \u2026 So when I look at this offense, it reminds me of what great offense should be in the NFL. This is a great blueprint, they\u2019re under center a lot. A lot of it\u2019s play-action pass, a lot of it\u2019s deception, so, it really slows that defense down, and you see the benefits of it.\u201d<\/p>\n

Brady, 47, was enthralled by the play-calling from Lions offensive coordinator Ben Johnson, raving about the team\u2019s play designs, schemes, etc., as Detroit rolled passed the Cowboys, 47-9.<\/p>\n

Brady \u2014 who officially retired from the game in 2023 after 23 seasons \u2014 could hardly contain his excitement over the Lions\u2019 flea flicker that went from running back David Montgomery to wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown and then to Goff, who hit tight end Sam LaPorta for the touchdown.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf you\u2019re not having fun watching that, you don\u2019t have a heartbeat,\u201d\u00a0Brady exclaimed<\/a>\u00a0on the broadcast.<\/p>\n

Goff threw for 315 yards and two touchdowns on 72 percent completions as the Lions improved to 4-1.<\/p>\n

Although Brady has since settled into his role as an NFL analyst, one team pondered the idea of him playing under center in 2023.<\/p>\n

With 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy working his way back from an injury sustained in the 2023 NFC Championship game, head coach Kyle Shanahan flirted with the idea of bringing in Brady to help run the offense.<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span>\u201cAs we talked, I\u2019m looking at Brock, and he\u2019s got his arm in a sling, and I really am not sure I\u2019ve got a quarterback who\u2019s going to be ready for the start of the 2023 season. That started all of this,\u201d\u00a0Shanahan said at the time<\/a>, according to the \u201cFootball Morning in America\u201d column.<\/p>\n

Purdy eventually led the 49ers to a Super Bowl berth in February 2024, when they fell to the Chiefs.<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
