The ManningCast continues to entertain.
Two of the greatest and most entertaining quarterback minds, Peyton and Eli Manning, get to showcase their talent each week for us all. Monday night, it wasn’t any different, but one segment looked extra familiar.
Peyton gave us a walk-through of some examples of shifts and motions during the time of a snap. During his segment, he had some children joining him to show some of these plays …

If for some reason you’ve never seen the sketch, buckle up.

Yes, that’s Hall of Fame quarterback Peyton Manning chucking a football at a kid — sorry, multiple kids, and forcing him to sit in a porta-potty. He then offered some guidance on how to break into a car.
“Spend time with your kids, so Peyton Manning doesn’t.”
This ultimately was one of the first chances America had to see Peyton was more than a football star. The dude could, and still can, entertain.
