Tom Brady was back in the booth on Sunday calling the Detroit Lions-Green Bay Packers game at a very rainy Lambeau Field. And while Detroit won the game, 24-14, to take control of the NFC North, a moment during the broadcast had fans cracking up.

In case you missed it, during a shot of Brady (who called out the refs after a controversial decision) and Kevin Burkhardt talking on camera about the game you could notice a man standing awkwardly behind them. That man was one of FOX's main rules analysts, Dean Blandino, who was in the booth to break down any key calls in the game.

Here's that silly moment:

I like how they try to move on and pretend he's not there but they're so clearly thinking about it every few seconds and looking his way like "what is he doing?!" https://t.co/FNWmwTxHqZ
