‘Monday Night Football’ Watch Peyton & Eli Manning On ESPN: ‘ManningCast’ Schedule Detailed

Week 8 will conclude with the return of Monday Night Football, but not the Manning brothers, Peyton and Eli. In Week 9, the dynamic team will make a return to the booth—or sofa, depending on how you want to refer to it—for their alternative broadcast.

In 2023, the former NFL players will make ten separate live appearances on ESPN2, hosting various famous guests along the road.

The “Manningcast” was unveiled in 2021 as a substitute broadcast for the customary “MNF” viewing choice. The plan was straightforward: the Manning brothers wanted to share their special, knowledgeable expertise from winning Super Bowls.

The “Manningcast” changed over time to become an undone-tie program with guests from pop culture, football, and other sports.

There could be a slight increase in the emphasis on the football and dissecting the game this year. Using a live telestrator, Peyton will be able to analyze in-game events in real time.

Here’s a detailed schedule of events along with viewing instructions:

How to watch ManningCast

TV: ESPN2 will air all 10 ManningCast episodes.

Stream: ESPN+ will broadcast three Monday Night Football games featuring Peyton and Eli.

Mobile: NFL+ will provide Monday Night Football featuring the Manning brothers for streaming.

The focus on the on-field product could be slightly higher this year since the 2022 season might have diverged somewhat from the broadcast’s 2021 format. Even if the broadcast featured fascinating celebrities and other personalities, the fun factor could have taken precedence over the actual game.

ESPN is allowing Peyton to utilize a live telestrator this year, which might raise some awareness of the game while maintaining the guest-host format they’ve used in previous years.

Either way, you have a lot more Monday night Mannings ahead of you!
