Legendary quarterback Tom Brady's broadcasting debut on Fox featured some ups and downs, but he showed his personality by telling a funny story about his former head coach Bill Belichick.

With the Dallas Cowboys leading by a wide margin against the Cleveland Browns in the fourth quarter, Brady followed up a sideline report from Erin Andrews by quipping, "I played for a coach that didn't mind cussing his players out," per The Athletic's Andrew Marchand.

Brady then went on to explain why having a fiery head coach can be a good thing, showing the charisma many were hoping to see when Fox signed him to a 10-year, $375 million contract to be the network's lead football analyst.

However, the 47-year-old's debut in the booth wasn't completely smooth, as Marchand noted that he "came across as nervous to open his Fox broadcasting career."

Fox has the broadcast rights to the Super Bowl this season, which will put Brady under an even bigger spotlight. Marchand added that he believes Brady can develop his voice over the course of the year to be ready for the Big Game.

"If the growth Brady showed from the first to the fourth quarter continues, he should be fine," Marchand stated. "Brady gives Fox a lot to work with."
