Tom Brady is arguably the greatest football player ever and more often than not we hear all the sports shows around the world talk about him. It is the same on Undisputed, where Skip Bayless and NFL Hall of Famer Shannon Sharpe share their views.

A few years ago, Shannon Sharpe got the opportunity to talk to Brady in a video call with other prominent celebrities. Brady talked about a few things from their show.

Brady scolded Shannon Sharpe. He asked Sharpe why on Undisputed he always roots for the team against him. Brady also lauded Skip Bayless for always having his back against Sharpe. Here's what Skip Bayless said after hearing Brady compliment him:

"Shannon, Thanks to you. I just experienced the most rewarding moment of my entire career. Tom Brady watches Undisputed. Tom Brady knows I have his back. Tom Brady knows you don't."

Bayless added:

"Brady killed with kindness because he is the smiling chuckling assassin. Yes, he stuck the knife. While he was chuckling. He chuckled all the way through it. Because he thought you should have his back but you never have. Thank you, Tom Brady."

Shannon Sharpe had told Brady that it was just for debate purposes and he knows how great of a player he is.

Skip Bayless is one of Brady's most ardent supporters and of the Dallas Cowboys. Shannon Sharpe seems to choose the opponents facing Brady and the Cowboys, either by preference or to wind Bayless up.

Brady and the Bucs are favored for their game against the Arizona Cardinals this week:

Skip Bayless will very likely be in a very tough situation come playoff time. The Dallas Cowboys could potentially face the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the NFC Wild Card game, and Bayless would be required to support only one of them. He will, of course, be supporting his Cowboys over Brady, but it will put him in an awkward position.

Shannon Sharpe will certainly enjoy the game as he will get the opportunity to troll Skip Bayless for either Brady or the Cowboys, regardless of the result.

Although Brady and the Bucs have been poor this season, everything will change come playoff time. While the Cowboys are famous for melting under pressure, Brady has always embraced it.

Each side has three games remaining to cement their place in the postseason. There is still a lot of football to be played, and Tampa Bay will have to improve their form if they are to make it. However, a Cowboys-Buccaneers showdown could really be on the cards. The Bucs could end the Cowboys' season in the playoffs, and it would be quite an exceptional moment.
