Watch: Rex Ryan gives priceless reaction as Alex Smith calls out Tom Brady’s ‘uncompetitive’ AFC East

Tom Brady’s comments about the ‘mediocrity’ in today’s NFL have drawn buzz all over the sports media landscape. On Sunday, another former quarterback chimed in on the debate.

Alex Smith appeared on ESPN’s “Sunday NFL Countdown” and fired back at Brady’s comments. Three different personalities on set got caught in the crossfire during Smith’s argument.

“He [Brady] played in the most uncompetitive division, I think, in NFL history,” Smith said. “You come out of training camp, the biggest cupcake division, you got a ticket to the playoffs right away. Talk about mediocre.”

On a panel with former Patriots Randy Moss and Tedy Bruschi, along with longtime AFC East coach Rex Ryan, Smith certainly drew some interesting reactions on Sunday morning.
