Grazie. Will be better than actual broadcast. Is Brees on MNF?
Can't wait!

Monday Night Football is gonna be freaking awesome with these guys!
I have high hopes for this.  
bceagle05 : 9/13/2021 8:13 pm : link
I’ve already seen Charles Barkley, Ray Lewis and Russel Wilson among the guests they have lined up - not sure if they’re all coming on tonight or in the future, but I’m sure it’ll make for some fun interviews during the season.
This pace is unsustainable

they are making it about them rather than adding value to the game.

Many years before the Raiders leave Las Vegas:)
Can they just go away

For a little bit
Glad for the reminder!

Drew Brees works for NBC. MNF is on ESPN.

Huh? They are talking about the game.
My head is spinning already  
Rick in Dallas : 9/13/2021 8:24 pm : link
And I thought Tony Romo talked to much
I sort of like this...

Peyton is a machine.

they literally didn't show the mariotta run until the play was over because they were doing a dumb bit by the white board
I think this has a ton of potential if payton

Would calm the hell down
I  
AcidTest : 9/13/2021 8:28 pm : link
like it. It's similar to college coaches analyzing the national championship game every year.
I like it too.  
section125 : 9/13/2021 8:28 pm : link
Peyton and his straight man. Interesting the comments they make now that they would never say to the public if they were playing.
Getting better  
Professor Falken : 9/13/2021 8:28 pm : link
Opening shtick was terrible. Just sit there and give us pro insight.

That’s a production issue.

Sounds like two dudes @ bar shooting the breeze.

I like it.
This is growing on me...

They compliment each other well.

Need to bring Olivia into the mix....
Aaaand

Really smart dudes...
Lamar is going to bust some massive runs if they keep rushing  
Zeke's Alibi : 9/13/2021 8:37 pm : link
the passer like that.
This will be good  
Aaroninma : 9/13/2021 8:37 pm : link
Once they get settled
Everyone complains about the regular announcers  
BillT : 9/13/2021 8:38 pm : link
Give them something different and they still complain.

Do you mean like in general or just while you’re watching this game? Because like if you only want this in small doses you can always switch back to the main telecast and then switch to this when you feel like it.
Saw that one  
Scooter185 : 9/13/2021 8:41 pm : link
Coming


Ehh it's INC, but still
Chuck makes an appearance.  
RDJR : 9/13/2021 8:44 pm : link
Prefer this to the MNF crew.
Just on this game...  
bw in dc : 9/13/2021 8:44 pm : link
Carr looks really out of sorts right now. He could easily have three picks already...
Peyton put on the prop Ravens helmet  
mikeinbloomfield : 9/13/2021 8:44 pm : link
And Eli said “Is that a size XXL helmet with that forehead?”
They seem to be having trouble with their unscripted jokes..  
bradshaw44 : 9/13/2021 8:46 pm : link
Not sure I like this. Also can’t tell if sometimes they are telling us what the design is or if they are just making it up.

I was gonna say literally just 8 minutes in? Where’s the patience these days smh
It's kind of funny how Peyton is nervous  
JoeFootball : 9/13/2021 8:53 pm : link
and Eli is relaxed. Once Peyton settles down this could be really good.
Listening Barkley talk about that "overthrow" is like listening to som  
Zeke's Alibi : 9/13/2021 8:55 pm : link
people here. That was a good throw by Carr and showed really good anticipation.
The Mannings  
crick n NC : 9/13/2021 8:56 pm : link
Are excellent, could lose Chuck though.
Ugh whoever said the Giants ruining your joy of football is right  
Zeke's Alibi : 9/13/2021 8:57 pm : link
Going to watch Casablanca instead of watching Lamar Jackson beat me in fantasy. At least we get the Thursday night game.

Peyton nervous? Don’t think that s true. He s just not laid back like Eli
Chuck is just a guest for the 1st quarter tonight  
Leg of Theismann : 9/13/2021 8:58 pm : link
He’s not here for actual analysis
I like it.  
Tim in Eternal Blue : 9/13/2021 8:59 pm : link


People complain about anything. BTW... Peyton is trending #2 of Twitter and the majority of what I'm reading is positive. Glad I'm not the only one enjoying it.
Eli is fantastic  
Breeze_94 : 9/13/2021 9:00 pm : link
In the booth. Great insight and not as forced as his brother. Peyton does a bit too much talking while Eli has a laid back demeanor that is ideal for a color analyst.

Btw, Mark Schlereth was unbearable yesterday. Nothing worse than a color guy who loves the sound of his own voice.
they've calmed down and it's got much, much better  
GiantsFan84 : 9/13/2021 9:02 pm : link
the beginning was rough though as they were trying too hard
Yep.. they have settled in quite nicely now  
Rick in Dallas : 9/13/2021 9:07 pm : link
Just talking football .. love it
Pretty good  
RUNYG : 9/13/2021 9:09 pm : link
Is this a one time thing or every week now?
Now that they're just focused  
rebel yell : 9/13/2021 9:09 pm : link
on football and not yukking it up with Sir Charles it's excellent. I prefer them to the other bozos any day. They just know what they're talking about and the in-depth analysis is fantastic.

I believe they are doing 10 Monday Night games.
I was not expecting Eli to be this good.
