Because it’s terrible. They need a moderator.

[–] Status_Serve8287@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

I prefer them over the regular Monday night announcers lol

[–] anon135797531@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

A lot of complaints about the guests in this thread. IMO the mannings just don’t have the necessary charisma

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

The show was great when it was their perspectives as QBs analyzing the game. Its now just a TV show that has football on the side.

For me personally I don’t watch it anymore, part of that is MNF now has good announcers. When the Manningcast first appeared they were better then the actual MNF announcers.

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

I rather watch them and do every Monday, ya maybe the guests can be limited. it also is only certain games. it's the best tweak to football in years

[–] 8each8oys@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

To be fair, once ESPN got their shit together and landed Buck and Aikman, I didn't need the ManningCast any longer.

[–] Random3lem3nt@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

I watch so much football that i find it refreshing to put on the Manningcast on Monday Nights.

The show is at its best when the guests are either Football players talking tactics with the Mannings or celebrity fans with knowledge and passion for their team.

[–] 50eggmafia@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

If it were always with present and past players, sign me up. Keyshawn this past Monday was fantastic. I can do without all of the celebrity plugs and bullshit.

[–] carnage3232@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

They should limit guests to current and former football players because Arnold was awful but Trevor Lawrence was a great guest

[–] TigerCat9@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Well my wife, my two kids, and I love it and always watch it.

We could all watch it on different TVs if that would help the numbers.

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

In Canada you have to pay a premium to view this.

[–] BaNoCo92@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Put them on multiple platforms.

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

Show needs more former Coaches so Peyton has somebody to rant to about timeout usage.

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

The novelty has warn off. The dream Monday night crew would be the Manning bros, Pat Mcafee, and Mike Tirico.

[–] kvaldez10@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

It was a cool SCHTICK at first. Now it’s just getting old and annoying. Somewhat like the hosts. Sorry not sorry.

[–] Jacksonrr31@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

I was watching a replay of the Monday night game between 49ers and Vikings. It started off interesting when they were breaking down the plays. But then they just started having all these different guests on and were not even talking about the game anymore. I quickly lost interest.

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

They just talk shit àbout whoever....They are royalty in their minds....

[–] speghettiday09@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

I love the manningcast but definitely don’t watch it when my team plays in mnf.

[–] sister4sale@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

When the manning cast dies. I hope both Kelce brothers have retired and we can get the Kelce cast.

Two brothers with a combined 34 years playing QB in the NFL, 6 SB appearances and 4 wins… I want to be a fly in the wall as they watch the game and talk back and forth with one another. With the guests there is so much conversation you can’t follow the game.

It was also be awesome if they had their own production - as they are just commenting over the original feed they don’t know what replays are coming, angles etc. I know it would add a big cost but if they had a good producer and it was their own feed this would be epic. I’d love to hear them break down certain plays/coverages etc.

Enough talent with those two - keep it the Manning cast, not Manning’s plus guest.

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

Well yeah, 4 out of their 5 games have featured some god awful teams. Jets x 2, Giants and pre-JCD firing Raiders.

[–] commenter_69@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

I watched probably about 3-4 Manning Casts in each of the 2021 and 2022 seasons, but haven’t watched a single one this year. Have just had no real desire to

[–] Rich-ucf23@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

They need to put it on ESPN plus. No one watches ESPN 2. Better metric is what else would be in its place

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

I bet the ratings would be higher on a non cable channel. I used to pay for YouTube TV or any other the other random TV streaming services during the football season just to watch football. It's not worth the experience ass amounts they charge now.

Get rid of guests and put it on something I can get with a shitty antenna and I'll go back to watching.

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

Who tf wants to watch a football game with Eli and Peyton’s heads on screen talking nonstop and their little family inside jokes. Has to be the most annoying way to watch a game

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

Terminator 2 is my favorite movie. I love Arnold as an actor.

But what the fuck is he doing on the show?

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

Might help if the MNF games weren’t garbo this season.

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

They need to get rid of the guests. Maybe have them come for halftime. I’d rather have them talk about the game.

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

The casual fans won’t stick around forever. Stop pandering to them.

[–] Emotional-Key-653@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

How much do they get paid to do this show?

[–] yooosports29@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Because nobody wants the guests

[–] tony8@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Let's put it back on ESPN+

[–] HermDog04@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Honestly, the reason why I watched the Manningcast was because ESPN’s commentating crew was so ass. Once they got Buck and Aikman, the commentary has been way better in my opinion, so I watch the actual broadcast more now. Still tune in to the Manningcast every now and then (especially when the game is boring like last week), but I don’t have as much of an incentive to watch it anymore.

[–] T4lsin@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

I enjoy the manning cast. Would like less guests.

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

Didn’t even know manningcast was a thing

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

The problem is that the guests are lagged so badly that they end up talking over each other constantly. It's cringy. And then half the guests' audio is so bad you can't hear them at all.

[–] tootsie404@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

The show should have a laid-back podcast vibe. It's why the mannings are literally talking to you from their couches.

[–] tootsie404@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

And ESPN,/Disney when you do bring a guest on please provide them a decent mic setup. Aaron Rodgers was talking through dial-up until he pulled out 2013 earphones from the drawer

[–] Klutzy_Turnip4564@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

ESPN is always laying off season journalists only to pay meathead jocks tens of millions of dollars. Bizarre

[–] superbear19@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

As a Canadian they moved it off TV onto a app that you have to pay for

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

I only want to watch when they are talking to other quarterbacks, for the most part they get in the way of watching the game. Doesn’t help that their competition for the game is Troy and Buck who are actually one of the better booths in football imo

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

Imo just keep it straight athletes
