Ex-Bucs WR Antonio Brown calls out renowned NFL Analyst publicly using racial slur: “St***d ahh c****er”

Despite Antonio Brown’s on-field success, he faced a setback in his NFL career following a misunderstanding with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, leading to the end of his time in the league. Nonetheless, Brown continued to grab attention with off-field issues, including a recent statement where he asserted that the Kansas City Chiefs should beg for his return.

In the middle of this, the former Buccaneers player managed to divert attention by calling out well-known NFL analyst Mike Florio for his recent audacious prediction.

 Antonio Brown brutally calls out renowned NFL Analyst

Pro Football Talk founder and analyst Mike Florio recently found himself at the center of attention earlier this week, thanks to a bold pregame forecast that the San Francisco 49ers would dominate the Baltimore Ravens. Little did he know that this prediction would not only stir controversy but also attract the ire of controversial wide receiver Antonio Brown.

Brown, never one to shy away from controversy himself, took to Twitter on Friday night to deliver a racially charged jab at Florio without providing any context. Brown’s tweet read, “Mike Florio don’t know s** about pro football stupid ahh Cracker.”

Prior to the former Bucs player’s assertion, Florio’s prediction was delivered with blunt confidence on his podcast alongside former NFL quarterback Chris Simms. He made waves with a bold prediction favoring the San Francisco 49ers in spite of himself stating his claim as “disrespectful” to the Ravens.

 “[The 49ers] kick the s–t out of everybody they face. The 49ers kick the s–t out of the Ravens on Monday night. I’m sorry, I know that’s disrespectful to the Ravens, but let’s be realistic. They’re going to fly across the country on Christmas night, and the 49ers are waiting. The 49ers are going to dismantle the Ravens,” he said, per USA Today.

While Antonio Brown has faced his fair share of off-field controversies, including issues related to child support, he found an opportunity to redirect the spotlight toward Mike Florio, who now finds himself in the hot seat.

 Why does the NFL community hate Mike Florio?

Actually, there is no “love and hate game” between Florio and the NFL fans. Just due to his bold claim, he found himself in the bad book of football fans, especially Ravens fans.

After the Ravens upset the 49ers, they found a way to rip the analyst with light-hearted banter. 

“Take journalism” has ruined journalism,” one fan wrote in a comment, throwing a sly jab at his prowess in journalism. 

Despite Florio offering an apology for his bold statement and attempting to make amends by declaring Lamar Jackson as the MVP, fans are hesitant to fully embrace him again. They perceive Florio as nothing more than an attention seeker, still holding reservations about his credibility after his controversial take on the Ravens.

Fans didn’t hesitate to draw parallels between Skip Bayless and Florio, labeling them as two of the least accurate analysts who consistently make incorrect and uninspiring predictions regarding NFL games.
