Michael Strahan was left laughing after Terry Bradshaw turned his attention to his FOX NFL Sunday co-host with a playful roast.
The New York Giants' Super Bowl chances were the topic of discussion as Strahan's co-hosts joked that the team's Week 1 win had already filled the bandwagon. Strahan then suggested that the Giants could face the New York Jets in a potential all-New York Super Bowl.
Bradshaw then added to the conversation with a playful dig at Strahan, saying, “I want some of that,” which received laughter from Strahan as well as host Curt Menefee, Rob Gronkowski and Howie Long.
• Buffalo Bills fans forced to pay extortionate prices for beer at new Highmark Stadium
• 'ESPN fired me during live show, they tried to humiliate me and I can't work anywhere else'
Bradshaw's dig at Strahan soon prompted a joke in the other direction as the FOX NFL Sunday panel discussed the Jets' new era with Geno Smith leading the team.
As the conversation turned to the changes surrounding the franchise following their Week 1 win over the Tennessee Titans, Strahan fired back at Bradshaw by joking that the former quarterback probably grew up with novelist F. Scott Fitzgerald.

“Completely different energy, which you picked up on in that interview" Strahan said. And, you know, in all my reading, F. Scott Fitzgerald — you know him, TB — you probably grew up with him.
"He said, ‘There are no second acts in American lives.’ Well, Geno’s had a third and fourth act, and I love what he’s doing with the Jets. He’s coming to this team as the vet on one of the youngest teams in the league.”
The 78-year-old was also targeted by Menefee with another joke after Strahan was left laughing when Long struggled to add five and four as he discussed Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen's impressive start to the season. He’s taking math lessons from Terry Bradshaw, that’s what’s going on" said Menefee.
Bradshaw took exception to the dig, but quickly moved on, having long been a regular target of jokes on FOX NFL Sunday. The show has been a staple of the NFL's pregame coverage since debuting in 1994, with Bradshaw and Howie Long having been part of the desk throughout its 32-year run.
However, a wave of disgruntled viewers have been calling for Bradshaw to step down from his role on the FOX NFL Sunday pundits' desk.
As Bradshaw has continued into the later stages of his broadcasting career, he has faced increased scrutiny over mistakes on air, including confusing teams and mispronouncing players' names. During last Sunday's broadcast, Bradshaw also sparked discussion when he said he would take Joe Burrow over Patrick Mahomes.
Although Bradshaw may be approaching the later stages of his 31-year career with FOX, the former quarterback has made it clear he has no plans to walk away from broadcasting anytime soon.
