Terry Bradshaw stunned Fox viewers once again on Sunday by admitting he’s never met Pittsburgh Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin.

Bradshaw, who won four Super Bowl titles across his 13 years with the Steelers, made the shocking admission after Pittsburgh’s much-needed win over the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday.

It seems remarkable that the franchise legend has not crossed paths with Tomlin at some point of his 18 years in charge of the franchise. Tomlin has been one of the NFL’s best coaches in the past two decades, leading them to a Super Bowl win in 2009.

So when 77-year-old Bradshaw announced he’d never met Tomlin while on duty with Curt Menefee, Howie Long, and Michael Strahan, fans on social media could not believe he was telling the truth.

One commented: ‘Wait, Terry Bradshaw just said he has never met Mike Tomlin. How is that possible?’

Another posted: ‘Terry Bradshaw just said he has never met Mike Tomlin. No, that can’t be true.’

A third added: ‘Did Terry Bradshaw just say he’s never met Mike Tomlin? If so, how is this possible, one of the franchise’s – and football’s – iconic players and sports personality has never crossed paths with one of its most decorated, respected head coaches?’

Others commented that the notion they’ve never met ‘seems wild’ and another speculated ‘there’s got to be a reason for this’.

Bradshaw’s spot on Fox’s NFL coverage has once again come under scrutiny this season after a series of blunders and odd mistakes.

He left viewers stunned last week when he went off-track and began discussing airports rather than his preview of the Bills-Steelers game.

‘Oh gosh. Folks, there are very few things that make me get nervous,’ the four-time Super Bowl winner replied when host Menefee asked him about the game.

‘I panic, I will panic, when I go through the airport later tonight… to get through the security line to kind of have… to kind of have a driver’s license, Howie and Michael,’ he then rather incoherently said to colleagues Strahan and Long.

‘Because y’all don’t do that.

‘And you have to show that and they’re kind of looking at you and go, “OK Mr. Bradshaw, you can come in”. If I don’t have it, and a lot of times I don’t, I panic. Panic!’

Bradshaw eventually managed to steer his tangent back to the Bills-Steelers clash when he managed to tie his long-winded anecdote into the Pittsburgh defense’s prospects against Buffalo quarterback Josh Allen.

‘Facing Pittsburgh today, if I’m Josh Allen, there’s panic written all over this.

‘Last week, sacked eight times, numerous hits.

‘This is time to panic for Buffalo ’cause Pittsburgh is gonna’ be all in his stuff today.’

Even his colleagues appeared baffled by Bradshaw’s ramble when he finally finished as Long said: ‘I see what you did there. I’ll tell you what you took a long while to get there.’

‘Every time you start your comments like that, I panic,’ Strahan quipped, causing Long to burst out laughing.

Bradshaw also recently botched the name of Jaxon Smith-Njigba while on duty.

The Seattle Seahawks wide receiver scored a stunning 63-yard touchdown against the Tennessee Titans on November 23.

But while discussing Smith-Njigba’s first-half touchdown, Bradshaw referred to the receiver – live on air – as ‘Njigboo.’

He was called out by fellow panelist Strahan, who reminded Bradshaw that the receiver’s name is Njigba. ‘That’s what I said,’ Bradshaw replied. ‘Something like that.’
