Things between Skip Bayless and Shannon Sharpe got heated beyond anyone's wildest expectations during a debate about Tom Brady's performance in the Tampa Bay Buccaneers' embarrassing 35-7 loss to Brock Purdy the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday.

During Monday's episode of Undisputed on FS1, Sharpe was highly critical of Brady's performance, calling out the quarterback for his poor performance while passing the ball. Brady completed only 34 of his 55 pass attempts for 253 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions.

Tom Brady debate sparks petty argument between Skip Bayless and Shannon Sharpe

Bayless offered poor retorts to Sharpe's legitimate criticism of Tom Brady's performance, before accusing the NFL Hall of Famer of being jealous of the seven-time Super Bowl champion. When Sharpe called out Bayless for claiming that Brady watches more film than the Buccaneers coaching staff and that the quarterback was the one to blame for the team's blowout loss against the 49ers, the latter responded:

"This is straight hate by a guy who is jealous that he's still playing at a high level at 45, when you [Sharpe] had to stop at 35. That's the point."

Sharpe replied:

"Skip, that's what you do. Every time I call something into question, [you claim] I am jealous. I did what I did. You make it sound like I was a bum. I'm in the NFL Hall of Fame. I got three Super Bowls."

Bayless snapped back:

"So what? [Brady's] way better than you were!"

A visibly upset Sharpe took his glasses off and continued to argue his case:

"You are willing to take a personal shot at me. To say this man is better than me because I said he's playing bad this year?"

Bayless responded that Sharpe's comments about Tom Brady were disrespectful and the former NFL star responded that the veteran analyst's jibe at him was just as disrespectful. The argument eventually cooled down after Sharpe took a backseat and allowed Bayless to make his case and defend Brady's performance against the 49ers.

What started off as a passionate debate devolved into a petty argument.
