THE QUESTIONS

*  What did we think of Tom Brady’s debut?

*  How can Brady become better?

*  What else did we think about Week 1 in the NFL?

NFL greed on Friday night with Peacock game … Jeff Darlington should have the “Cops” song play when he comes on-air. … Matt Ryan debut on CBS’ NFL Today, while James Brown pays tribute to Boomer Esiason & Phil Simms. …Sunday Ticket worth it?

*  College GameDay vs. Big Noon Kickoff: It is turning into a great college football rivalry?

Both shows are good. Colt McCoy struggles on Saturday night national TV debut.

* The future of Media presented by WSC Sports: What happens with ESPN’s equity play as it goes direct to consumer?

NFL and NBA talks are stalled for now, but digital players could still team with ESPN.

*  Is it the right move by Audacy New York president Chris Oliviero to bring back John Sterling for the playoffs to call Yankee games on WFAN?

YOUR QUESTIONS

* Who is likely to call the Netflix games? Neil Schoolnik from X. 

Peter Schrager is an interesting option.
