Peyton Manning attended the Broncos game instead of doing a ‘ManningCast’

There was no ‘ManningCast’ in Week 13 because Peyton Manning attended the Broncos game in person with his son, Marshall.

There was no ManningCast for the thrilling Monday Night Football clash between the Denver Broncos and Cleveland Browns at Empower Field at Mile High last night.

It seems that Peyton Manning preferred to attend the game in person.

Peyton, who spent the final four years of his career with the Broncos, still lives in the Denver area and he attends many of the team’s home games. He was on the sideline with his son, Marshall, ahead of Monday’s game.

Marshall was rocking a throwback Pat Surtain jersey. Isaiah J. Downing of Imagn Images captured this photo of Peyton and his son before the game:

Although it would have been entertaining for viewers to watch Peyton’s reactions to all of Monday’s shenanigans, Peyton certainly picked a fun game to attend in person while taking a break from the ManningCast schedule.

Peyton and Eli Manning will return next week with a ManningCast for the Dallas Cowboys-Cincinnati Bengals game in Week 14.

Peyton Manning stars in Nationwide’s new Debatin’ Manning commercial

Peyton Manning stars as “Debatin’ Manning” in his latest commercial for Nationwide.

Following the success of his “Paintin’ Manning” commercial earlier this year, Peyton Manning has returned with a new Nationwide commercial just in time for the NFL’s Thanksgiving slate of games.

In the new ad, he’s “Debatin’ Manning,” facing off against a tough opponent on the debate stage.

“The commercials are always fun, but they’re so much more – they’re also a way to help people understand what ‘On Your Side’ really means,” Manning said in a statement. “The Nationwide team is there for their customers to help them with their financial and insurance needs. I know how important it is to have teammates that you can count on to have your back, and Nationwide sharing that mentality is important to me.”

Watch the 30-second “Debatin’ Manning” commercial below:

The new ad made its debut during NBC’s coverage of Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade. It will continue to air during the NFL games scheduled for Thursday. Nationwide has also released a 15-second “Calculatin’ Manning” commercial.

Manning, 48, retired from the NFL after winning Super Bowl 50 with the Denver Broncos in 2016. Eight years after his retirement from pro football, Manning remains one of the most marketable figures in sports.

Unfortunately, there’s no ‘ManningCast’ scheduled for Broncos-Browns game

Unfortunately, there’s no ‘ManningCast’ scheduled for the Broncos-Browns ‘Monday Night Football’ game in Week 13.

The Denver Broncos are set to host the Cleveland Browns on Monday Night Football in Week 13. Unfortunately, Peyton and Eli Manning won’t be providing commentary for that matchup.

The 2024 ManningCast schedule includes 11 weeks of action this season, but the Broncos-Browns game did not make the lineup.

Instead, Denver hosting Cleveland will be broadcast on ESPN’s main channel, which is available to stream on fuboTV (try it free).

The ManningCast slate will resume next week when the Dallas Cowboys host the Cincinnati Bengals.

Peyton and Eli will welcome new guests on the program each week there is a ManningCast, and Bill Belichick will be featured on every episode this fall.

In addition to 10 weeks of regular-season action, Peyton and Eli will also provide commentary for a Wild Card game in January.

Peyton Manning stars in funny new Nationwide commercial

Following the success of his “Paintin’ Manning” commercial, Peyton Manning is back with a new ad for Nationwide.

After debuting a funny new “Paintin’ Manning” commercial with Nationwide earlier this year, Peyton Manning has returned with another witty ad.

In his latest commercial for the insurance company, Peyton is “Calculatin’ Manning” in a classroom.

“Nationwide is so much more than a great insurance company,” Manning says in the commercial. “They’re one of America’s largest financial services companies, like how I’m more than Peyton Manning. I’m also Calculatin’ Manning. Yup, [the] math checks out.”

It’s not quite as good as the “Paintin’ Manning” version from earlier this year, but it’s still witty. Here’s the 15-second version of Manning’s latest commercial with Nationwide:

“These new ads showcase how people are frequently so much more than what they appear to be,” Manning said in a press release. “And Nationwide is so much more than an auto and home insurance company. They’re also a financial services giant who can help customers with things like planning for retirement and protecting their long-term goals.”

Manning, 48, retired from the NFL after winning Super Bowl 50 with the Denver Broncos in 2016. Eight years after his retirement from pro football, Manning remains one of the most marketable figures in sports.

Peyton and Eli Manning release funny statements about 2025 Pro Bowl

Peyton and Eli Manning announced a return to the Pro Bowl with their signature sense of humor.

The Pro Bowl Games are returning this season and the NFL’s favorite brothers will once again serve as the head coaches.

Peyton Manning (AFC) and Eli Manning (NFC) will face off in the 2025 Pro Bowl at Camping World Stadium on Sunday, Feb. 2.

After the league announced the Mannings as returning coaches, the brothers released a pair of funny statements ahead of the Pro Bowl.

“The Pro Bowl Games are all about having fun,” Peyton said. “It’s always unpredictable, and we got to bring fans into the action and see the NFL’s biggest names compete. And the best part about this year’s games is knowing that my AFC team is going to end Eli’s two-year run of luck with the NFC.”

The NFL’s statement included a fitting retort from Eli.

“I love everything about the Pro Bowl Games,” Eli said. “And getting to hear Peyton complain about losing every year makes it even better.”

Fan voting for the 2025 Pro Bowl will open on Nov. 25. The list of Denver Broncos players worthy of consideration this season includes guard Quinn Meinerz, left tackle Garett Bolles, defensive end Zach Allen, pass rushers Nik Bonitto and Jonathon Cooper, and cornerbacks Pat Surtain, Riley Moss and Ja’Quan McMillian.

Since switching to a flag football format, Eli’s NFC is 2-0 against Peyton’s AFC in the revamped Pro Bowl Games.

Peyton Manning savagely roasted Jerry Jones and the Cowboys in his CMAs opener

Zing!

The 2024 CMAs featured country music’s best stars taking home hardware, but of course, co-host Peyton Manning couldn’t resist making a football joke like he did last year.

This time, fellow co-host Lainey Wilson talked about Kelsea Ballerini and Noah Kahan’s hit song, saying, “This year we discovered that ‘Cowboys Cry Too.'”

Manning’s response?

“But enough about Jerry Jones,” he said with a mock wince.

That’s so good. In the middle of a disastrous year for the Dallas Cowboys and their owner, you can’t do any better than that one.

Here are a few clips of the monologue with the Jones joke in there:

Broncos fans loved the way Peyton Manning signed off on the ‘ManningCast’

“Watch out for my Broncos,” Peyton Manning said at the end of the ManningCast. “The Broncos are coming.”

Following the Houston Texans’ 34-10 win over the Dallas Cowboys on Monday Night Football this week, Peyton Manning signed off on the ManningCast with a message loved by Denver Broncos fans.

“Watch out for my Broncos,” Manning said. “The Broncos are coming.”

Manning, of course, played the final four years of his career in Denver from 2012-2015. Manning helped the Broncos win the AFC West in all four of those seasons and they reached a pair of Super Bowls. Manning retired from the NFL after winning Super Bowl 50 following the 2015 season.

Manning, 48, still lives in the Denver area and he has tickets to attend the team’s home games. Even though he does not hold an official position with the Broncos, Manning has remained closely connected to the team.

Denver is scheduled to host the Cleveland Browns on Monday Night Football in Week 13. Unfortunately, there’s no ManningCast scheduled for that game, so Broncos fans won’t get to hear Manning call one of their games this year, at least not during the regular season.

Who’s hosting the 2024 CMA Awards? Here’s the answer.

Here’s who’s hosting.

The 2024 Country Music Awards — or the CMAs, as you might call them — are here, which means lots of great performances, some hardware handed out for some terrific music.

It also means some stars are going to get roasted and joked about by the hosts as is the tradition at awards shows. We saw that last year thanks to co-hosts Peyton Manning and Luke Bryan.

So if you’re here, you might be wondering: who are the hosts this year?

Luke Bryan and Peyton Manning will be back for hosting duties, and they’re joined by fellow cohost Lainey Wilson this time.

Enjoy the show!
