Anyone watching espn2 with Peyton and Eli?

A bit over the top for me.

Who ties Eli’s shoes? Is he a Velcro guy?

I’ve watched most of the game with their broadcast. I like it actually. Eli is a bit of a bump on a log but they have some really good guests. The main thing I like is they are honest when a coach, player or official screws up.

Best line of the night came after Peyton asked Eli to “tell me about Jones”.

Eli: Well, he’s #7 and he just caught a game-winning touchdown.

I thought it was great. Ended up watching the last 3/4 of the game with them

It was very good after Peyton stopped trying to diagram every play on his white board. He was too long winded at the beginning. Got better as they watched the game and got into it.

I thought it was really entertaining.

I have a lot of respect for Payton and I still think he was one of the smartest players about the game that played the game.

He also had a similar surgery own his neck of what I had, had some issues with hands like I still do and still came back to play.

Thought it was fairly entertaining, nothing put on about it, just several guys watching and commenting on a football game with a little ribbing going on. Eli could have used a cold one to loosen up.

Liked it. Fair amount of insight. Great guests that were entertaining, both Manning’s pretty humorous and seemed like normal guys watching a game. Didn’t have to listen to opinions/PC viewpoints or socially driven topics that normal crews have to do

I liked it myself. At one point Eli asked Travis Kelce if those routes he ran sometimes were scripted. Eli said the play call looked like everyone was given a route and that he would be told just get open. Travis admitted that was the case but he and Mahomes would see the defense and look at each other presnap and he would go off script. He said, he knew where everyone was going to be and he would not mess up the other routes.

Another thing was when Russell Wilson gave the holder some major props for getting the hold down after a poor snap.

I only saw part of the 2nd half and OT but I found it fun.

I didn’t know about it until this morning. What channel/platform did it air? Is this going to be a weekly thing?

It's on ESPN2. My understanding is that it's going to be 10 games each season, but I don't know which games.

Peyton is really good. I'm not sure I saw Eli move from his spot on the couch when I switched over there.


ETA: I think it's on ESPN+ as well.
