28-Year-Old Detroit Lions Quarterback Humiliates Kansas City Chiefs’ Rival Peyton Manning Mere Hours Before Kick-Off

Outside the gridiron, Peyton Manning and Eli Manning are comedians in their own right. Whether it’s Peyton’s hilarious SNL skit that featured him mentoring little kids or Eli’s ‘Little Brothers’ skit mocking older brothers, they have become entertaining TV personalities outside their football career. The duo also has their own show called the ManningCast, where they broadcast Monday Night Football games. They’ve brought their comedic charm to the world of sports commentary with their hit show. ManningCast is where Monday Night Football meets Monday Night Fun!

Huddle up! Peyton and Eli Manning are on the lookout for a ‘third Manning brother’ to complete the ManningCast dream team. Who will be the ideal ‘draft pick’ to complete this legendary trio? 

Zingers and taunts: Celebrities roast Peyton Manning and Eli Manning

First aired in 2021, ManningCast has featured many A-List celebrity guests. These include current and former NBA and NFL players, coaches, comedians, actors, and more. Now that they are scouting for a third co-host, the dynamic duo has been holding auditions to find the ‘Manning trifecta’ that fits just right. The auditions saw many famous faces compete for the spot.

These included the likes of Tom Brady, Mike Tyson, Kirk Cousins, and even Reese Witherspoon. But a certain QB has caught the NFL off-guard while auditioning to complete the trio.

In a video released on Tuesday, Detroit Lions’ starting quarterback Jared Goff also auditions for the part. Goff kicks things off “in front of” Peyton and Eli by saying, “Hi, I’m Jared Goff, quarterback here to audition.”

“So Jared,” says Peyton Manning, “how excited are you about the opportunity to be on the most popular show on television?”

“Isn’t this for the ManningCast?” Goff deadpans in response.

Each guest on the show had a touchdown-worthy zinger. Tyson said the Manning brothers had some of the most punchable faces in the world. The cousins screamed, “You like that!” right back at Peyton Manning in an awesome to-and-fro exchange. McDaniels, meanwhile, straight up said the Manning brothers were terrible at what they do.

The video also featured a taunt parade of sorts with the celebs referencing Peyton’s insurance advertising career, the brothers’ clothing, and even Peyton’s unwillingness to run the called play at the line of scrimmage. Witherspoon said she had actually mistaken the duo for her “insurance guys”. It ends with future Hall of Famer Tom Brady in the waiting room as the lights go out. 

Will Jared Goff lead the Lions to victory

While there has been no finality in securing the third Manning, one thing is crystal clear: the ManningCast is gearing up for an unforgettable season. With nine regular season games and a playoff contest on the horizon, Peyton Manning and Eli Manning are swinging for the fences once again. Get ready, because next Monday night can’t come soon enough to witness this dynamic duo in action.

As the Mannings are gearing up for the third installment of their show, football enthusiasts are waiting for the 2023 NFL kick-off between the Detroit Lions and Kansas City Chiefs. Meanwhile, Jared Goff has been named as the Lions’ captain for the third consecutive season along with Alex Anzalone. The star quarterback has also been in talks with the front office regarding a potential contract extension.

But here’s the kicker: Will Goff’s leadership and contract negotiations translate into a game-changing season for the Lions?
