PETA isn't pleased with Tom Brady ... telling TMZ Sports it wishes the Fox broadcaster hadn't made his "kick the dog" comment while calling Sunday's Bears vs. Cowboys game.

The NFL legend's bizarre comments came during the fourth quarter of the Chicago Bears' big victory over the Dallas Cowboys at Soldier Field ... just after George Pickens dropped a Dak Prescott pass that ended up as an interception.
