"You've never even met the man" - Former Buccaneers star grills Skip Bayless for taking personal shots at Shannon Sharpe during Tom Brady debate

Skip Bayless and Shannon Sharpe got into a heated debate on Monday morning's episode of "Undisputed" over Tom Brady. Bayless' support for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback took a new level as he threw insults at Sharpe. Bayless insinuated that Sharpe was jealous of Brady's success and that is why he doesn't believe he can turn things around.

After the confrontation between the two, many around the NFL world took to social media to show their support for the Hall of Fame tight end. One of those being former Tampa Bay Buccaneers defensive tackle Gerald McCoy.

McCoy tweeted that the co-host crossed the line by taking a personal shot at Sharpe. McCoy added that he turned his back on his colleague for someone that he doesn't even know and has never met:

"Naw man Skip crossed a line this a.m. you didn’t take shots at your partner live on tv over somebody you don’t even know. You’ve never even met the man and you take a shot at your partner. That’s bogus as heck!!"

What did Skip Bayless say to Shannon Sharpe about Tom Brady

Skip Bayless and Shannon Sharpe will constantly argue a point, sometimes beyond all reason. After all, their show is called Undisputed. But on Monday, things got personal as Bayless accused his co-host of being jealous of Tom Brady. He said that because Brady is still able to play at 45 years old and Sharpe had to retire at 35, that the latter is scared of his greatness:

"You can't stand it that at 45 Tom Brady is still playing at a very high level. Because you're scared to death of him because he's haunted you.This is just straight hate by a guy whose jealous he's still playing at a high level at 45 when you had to stop at 35."

Sharpe shot back saying that his co-host calls him jealous every time he questions something he has said. He also went on to say, quite passionately, that he, himself is a Hall of Famer:

"Skip, I did what I did. You make it seem like I am a bum. I’m in the effing Hall of Fame. I got three Super Bowls. You're willing to take a personal shot at me to say this man is better than me because I say he's playing bad… You will disrespect me to support him?"

Shannon Sharpe played 14 seasons in the NFL and 12 of those seasons were with the Baltimore Ravens. He is a three-time Super Bowl winner, an eight-time Pro Bowler and was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2011. As to whether he is jealous of Tom Brady, well that's a matter of debate.
