Brett Favre rocking Tom Brady shirt at Buccaneers' home opener

Earlier this week, Hall of Fame quarterback Brett Favre had Tom Brady's back. Now the former Green Bay Packers quarterback is in attendance for Brady's home opener with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers at Raymond James Stadium...and he's sporting a pretty awesome shirt. 

Favre arrived at the stadium wearing a shirt with Brady's face on the Buccaneers logo. When Brady joined the Buccaneers, many dubbed Tampa Bay as "Tompa Bay." The shirt symbolizes that. 

Speaking on SiriusXM NFL Radio on Tuesday, Favre said Buccaneers head coach Bruce Arians made a mistake by calling out the six-time Super Bowl champion after the team's Week 1 loss to the New Orleans Saints. 

While it wasn't a terrific debut with his new team, Favre added that he expects Brady to improve during Week 2 against the Carolina Panthers as he gets more comfortable in a new system. 

The Buccaneers and Panthers have each won a game against each other in each of the last two seasons, but it's important to note that each of Brady's last two meetings against Carolina (2013, 2017) have resulted in losses.

In 2013, Brady tossed an interception and was sacked three times in a 24-20 loss to Cam Newton and the Panthers. In 2017, Brady performed better, throwing two touchdowns, but the New England Patriots lost by a field goal 33-30.

With Brady being on a new team and the Panthers boasting a lineup that includes Teddy Bridgewater and Christian McCaffrey, things are bound to be a bit different this season.
