Fitzmagic was an awesome guest, they had a great balance of discussing the play with expert insight but also throwing in humor

[–] Techun2@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

How do I watch if I wanted to? I have YouTube tv...

[–] atchman25@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

I tried putting it on once but it just felt like they were talking over the game instead of about it. Maybe I would be more interested if it wasn’t a team I was interested in watching

[–] Rad1314@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Is it cause people are getting tired of whatever bullshit the celebrity is pushing instead of football being talked about? I know I am. I'm also pretty sure that Peyton Manning is eager for them to shut up so he can talk about blitz pickup.

[–] saladblah22@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Loved it the first year because the main broadcast stunk. Buck and Aikman are great so I haven’t watched since

[–] moldymaybe69@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

No more guests. Literally 0

[–] BlueberrySvedka@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Completely misreading why your show is unique and fun is just classic. No one wants to hear a celebrity interview when Eli and Peyton could be talking about the game itself

If it was just the 2 of them then I'd be more inclined to watch. All the guests are what ruin it for me.

[–] Alexcox95@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

I’d watch it if I wasn’t working every Monday they’re on and I’m off when they aren’t on

I stopped watching it when they brought in Aikman and Buck. It was much more appealing when it was booger and who ever else was in the booth. Once they brought in the professionals I never turned on the manningcast again.

[–] The_Donny_Lebowski@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

I wish NBC had the rights to the Manningcast so I didn't have to listen to two known perverts (Google it) in Tirico and Collinsworth.

No surprise, because every quarter there's a guest on promoting whatever they have going on in their life. I don't even think Peyton cares for the guests either as he's more concerned on the game.

[–] Dangerous_Ice17@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

I watched them a few weeks ago and they were so lifeless and had zero energy. It sucked.

[–] LeadSledPoodle@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

The match ups have been okay-to-bad for ManningCasts so far. I'm not going to watch the Bills beat up on the Broncos next week, and I live in Denver.

Arnold was miserable lmao, just keep getting coaches or players, or former coaches or players

[–] RadWalk@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

I tuned in for a bit, they missed a play to show Eli playing middle school basketball or something. Switched back.

[–] NuggedClarp@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

The guests just have a weird chemistry. There’s always somebody talking over somebody. Some silent moments. Just have Peyton and Eli and it’d be way better. Ideally they’d be in the same room too

[–] Lvl99Cheerio@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Guests suck. CHANGE IT, ESPN

[–] Internecine-@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Also doesn’t help that you’ve had some really shitty teams/matchups on MNF

I mean the Giants were there and we only put up 3 points that Monday night, who the hell wants to watch that

[–] IPA_____Fanatic@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Not interested in the guests, any of them. I want to see the brothers just comment on the game together, get frustrated together, laugh, etc. The guests distract way too much.

[–] Charmstrongest@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Probably because it’s an unwatchable bore

I guess this is a surprise to absolutely nobody but ESPN? They fucked this project up so bad.

[–] Scruffy442@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Maybe they should have left it on ESPN+ instead of moving it to ESPN 2. If I'm going to have to put on an eye patch to watch the game, I'll just watch the main broadcast.

[–] ATLfinra@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Yeah I’ve forgotten about it and stopped watching myself and I was all in year 1 and part of last season

[–] Venator850@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

I've always just watched the main broadcast. Game feels secondary on the Manning cast.

[–] judrt@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

quit with the guests and have them at a few games or in a studio a couple times a year and it would explode

[–] jimmydean885@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

the guests are unwatchable

[–] Ok-Imagination-2308@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Peyton and Eli have the most boring personalities ever

[–] Zolo49@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

It worked great that first year because it was something fresh and new and the team they had doing the main broadcast on ESPN sucked. But when they got Buck and Aikman last year, who were FAR better, there really wasn't as much reason to switch to the Manningcast.

And I have to agree that some of their guests have really dragged it down. It's fine when they've got somebody who's knowledgeable about football and can add to the conversation about the game, but when they just have some random celebrity who's just there to plug their latest project, it's just awful.

[–] d_gorder@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

The only people that should be allowed as guests are former players. Anything else is a distraction

Stop doing guests

[–] adlopez@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Yeah, no shit. These two dudes talking at the same time is insufferable.

[–] Smackolol@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

I’m gonna say it, I dislike the manning cast.

[–] opinionofone1984@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

I love the Manning Cast,

[–] ZombieAppetizer@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

I watch, but that's because I can't stand Joe Buck or Troy Aikman.

[–] The_Human_One@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

I tried to watch this stupidity. WTF?! Seriously bruh. They're not entertaining and watching two people just cheer and sit quietly at times etc is do lame. LAME!

[–] JoeyBougie@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Maybe he because 90% of the guest suck and it was fun when they just talk manning football

[–] Swagsuke_Nakamura@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

I’ve only watched it a couple of times but I liked it when it was just those two watching and talking about it. Stop having guests

[–] RonnieLottOmnislash@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

I want to hear them talk about football. They have all these guests on not talking about football....

[–] Chessh2036@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

ManningCast should have two guest, MAX. One for each half of football.

[–] 77rozay@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

This show is intended for football fans. Football fans want to see the manning bros talk about the game, not random celebs talking random things. There’s already so many podcasts for that.

IM sure it has nothing to do with the state of the primetime games in the NFL this year. I love the manningcast, especially over aikmans weird commentary this year, but ther was basically only two good games all year...,

[–] mattyhegs826@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

I think the initial magic of it has worn off. It felt too much like a tv show instead of a game. I prefer the traditional broadcast. (Even though Troy aikman fucking sucks)

[–] JG8AB9TL11OBJ12AD13@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Imo, it should be only a guest in the third quarter, and depending on the guest (for example Russell Wilson I believe was amazing or Tom Brady) let them stay the rest of the game

[–] halfcuprockandrye@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

I like when the Mannings talk about the game. The guests can be good but other times they're distracting when I'm already with friends drinking and talking shit and trying to watch the game as much as possible. I think it is a cool way to switch it up but I don't need to watch it weekly.

[–] Splinter_Amoeba@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Bill Burr would be a good permanent addition. Dude loves sports and can make anything funny. Add him, ditch the guests, and just show 3 dudes reacting to a football game.

[–] Unimmortal47@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Guests distract and are a little annoying to try and get through at times. It’s not a talk show so stop treating it like one.

[–] OvertimeWr@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

The audio is terrible. Not just for the guests but the Manning bros too.

[–] fucuntwat@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Stop doing guests. Just Manning + Manning breaking down the game. Don't force an interview in where it isn't needed
