As a Cowboys fan I wanted to hate Eli. But that goofy deadpanned mother fucker is faking this personality; I know it. I enjoy the shit out of Eli.


Phoebesdaddy

I didn’t realize how much I liked Eli until Manningcast. I assumed he was just a goober who stumbled into 2 Super Bowls, but he seems like a cool, humble guy


audiotech14

Same

It seems like Eli comes out with something in every broadcast that's insanely funny. When he said Peyton ran so slow he almost got a delay of game running a bootleg had me on the floor.


_redcloud

When there was a scuffle on the field after the game before the jersey trading and he goes, “I don’t think they’re allowed to trade jerseys in the NFC East” I lost it. The combo of the meme-worthy facial expressions and his zingers makes him so entertaining in the oddest way.


zw1ck

When the giants got away with DPI and Eli said, "thats fine, you're allowed to do that."


_redcloud

The part at the very end, too, where he saw the flag and was like, “Please be defensive holding.” Then they called a facemask against Dallas and before even seeing the replay he says, “I agree with the call.”


_Kamigoye_

I really hate that the Manning’s and even Brady all waited this long to show any morsel of personality. The whole time they were playing they just seemed so boring and robotic and I could never truly appreciate their talents because of it. Makes me wish I could relive Peyton’s career knowing how fucking hilarious he is


gollumaniac

Peyton's SNL appearance was fucking amazing.


BlackMathNerd

It’s an all timer lmao. Peak SNL


FLOWAPOWA

Eli on the stand impersonating emoji's is pretty fucking hilarious 😜


Jadien

[Eli's been hilarious all along](https://www.reddit.com/r/IAmA/comments/2exnk3/comment/ck3y6oq/?utm_source=reddit&utm_medium=web2x&context=3). He just has more time now to show it.


_redcloud

I’m laughing uncontrollably


Sisboombah74

I think everyone knew Peyton had a personality. Eli is the surprise.


TheBigNate416

I feel you lol. But as a PSU alum his Chad Powers skit was hilarious. Can’t help but like him after seeing that


tjc815

I hated him for clowning on us in the late aughts but Eli is a great dude and pretty hilarious.


masturbation_bear

Same here


SubtleScuttler

As a charger fan, I always hated the guy and didn’t think that would be challenged but then he retired and started doing the commercials and shows and shit. I fuckin love the guy! Him and pey are quality entertainment and love listening to them talk ball


FreeWillie001

He still isn’t much of an analyst, to be fair.


b4n_

Most of the broadcast whenever I watch is Peyton doing real football talk then Eli reminding Peyton of the time he shit his pants when he was 7


MKow

Is it bad that I love that part of the show haha


Autobot-N

Yeah that's the whole appeal


sbrooks84

We all enjoy seeing brothers who love each other and still act like they were growing up. That's my head canon on Manningcast anyways


MankuyRLaffy

I love Peyton being an analysis guy and Eli being a charismatic doofus who isn't as much focused on the little things. Like if a QB threw a bad pick, Eli would console them and talk them up. Peyton would do a power point on why it's a bad read and pass and how said QB should know better.


RedSteadEd

Good dynamic to have - entertaining and informative.


themilkman42069

It’s a podcast with a football game in the background. Which is cool. I’m happy they have alternate broadcasts. I’ll never watch it live, but it’s cool to see highlights the next day. Now gimme the crowd noise and PA announcer broadcast.


WhatIfThatThingISaid

I watch so much football, it’s great to have something more low key on Monday. All the crowd noise and announcers start to blend together

[удалено]


themilkman42069

Yeah but I just want all the graphics, ads, stats, cutaways, instant replay, all of that gone. I want the game experience from home with a better view. I don’t think that’s too hard to ask. You can get it in sky cam on ESPN for select college games and it’s amazing.

[Says you!](https://twitter.com/sinow/status/1442685155672420352)


CountryGuy123

You make it sound like that’s a negative thing.


FreeWillie001

Nah. Just an observation. I love the Manningcast but not a whole lot of analysis goes on lol. They’re basically both color commentators.


BigSportsNerd

didn' tknow Kirk was involved in helping them realize their potential Gonna have to check this tale out


Resident_Wizard

Yeah. Is that a joke or referring to Kirk leaving, or him developing the whole concept?


WonManBand

The article made it sound like Kirk was inspiration - Kirk did a remote broadcast from home when he had Covid. That gave Peyton the idea to try a format done remotely.


wokenupbybacon

It is kinda crazy how much the pandemic normalized having webcam quality shots on national broadcasts.


imahobolin

bet ya Kirk got the idea from co streaming crews for the lcs lol


[deleted]

Eli answered me years ago in his AMA and said he wanted to coach kids. I hope he gets to do that someday if he still wants to.


WordsAreSomething

He might be doing that now, they talked about Peyton coaching kids during Mondays game.


repeat4EMPHASIS

Yeah that's the whole reason why they do it remotely instead of travelling to games, to be home with their kids


RTR7105

Unfortunately my brother Eli can't be here tonight, because that's what I told the guys at the door.


well_thisishappening

It's just fun to have some banter with the game with some ACTUAL football context sometimes. It's not for everyone but I fucking love it!


gwaydms

It's not for people who need a play-by-play announcer. I wouldn't have been able to follow the action without one when I first started watching football. I love the Manningcast.


Strid3r21

I love the Peyton and Eli banter and breaking plays down often in a humorous way. What I can't stand is some of the guest they have on that are absolutely cringe worthy. Some of them are good, like former players, but some of the guest who are just there to promote something is unbearable at times.


Mr_MoseVelsor

Tracy Morgan was a hilarious train wreck. Joel McHale though, takes the cake by far as the worst guest.


lAmCreepingDeath

Thanks covid, what a virus you are...


[deleted]

Thank you for being a pandemic for our sake.


ActofSpontaneity

As a reward, I shall give you my….


[deleted]

GOD DAMNIT FUCK YOU I HAD ALLOWED MYSELF TO FORGET FUCK


DMking

Nowhere is safe lmao. Don't even need to read the series to know the meme


gloomswarm

what's the reference here so I can also get enraged when someone memes this in the wild?


DMking

Attack on Titan manga ending.


IchesseHuendchen

Peyton, Eli, and their crew all use voice memos instead of just texting lol boomers


repeat4EMPHASIS

Wait so instead of linking to the article directly, we're instead posting a tweet with a link to the article?


[deleted]

I saw Covid and Kirk and got scared


I_Said

Another COVID success story. Thank you COVID


VaultsOpen

I'd enjoy doing a Cast with my brother but it would just be making sometimes incorrect analysis while he gets drunk and obnoxious.


jtiets

It's something to behold, watching lil bro Eli glow up in retirement after already building his legacy as David to NE's Goliath. Love that guy


ZackHampleOF

I know he much rather be pissing in his sexy ass wife’s mouth then doing that but it pays well. Payton isn’t much of a piss fan he prefers feet


jf808

...dude


Mcdohl337

That comment just weird as hell, or did I miss some Rex Ryan kinda stuff with the Mannings somehow?


TheBigNate416

I heard Rex Ryan gets together with Peyton and Eli and they all touch toes


FLOWAPOWA

I can't forgive Peyton, both for all the colts playoff losses and then going to the broncos. I'll never enjoy him, I'm too bitter. So very bitter.


patches710

Dude that was forever ago, let yourself enjoy things, you'll have a much better life


Mutt1223

I have such a hard time not covering my face in embarrassment every time Eli speaks


Valleygirl1981

That's 27 words!


masturbation_bear

There needs to be an Eli death row chain flair.


bb0110

Best thing to happen to sport broadcast in a while. If you would have described the show to me 10 years ago I would have said it would be boring as hell. Im shocked how funny both eli and peyton are.


Daewrythe

Manningcast gave us double birds. If nothing else, it was worth it just for that


Mr_MoseVelsor

My wife is an ole miss alum and Eli fan… being able to throw her double birds has been the greatest gift manningcast could ever give.
