The Monday Night Football Manning MegaCast — yes, the ManningCast! — got one more curtain call with the Dallas Cowboys and San Francisco 49ers playing in a Super Wild Card Weekend playoff matchup.
This time, we got Eli and Peyton Manning to talk with guests — Deion Sanders, Dan Campbell and Tedy Bruschi — as the Cowboys took down Tom Brady and Co. There was definitely a ton to talk about for the Manning brothers and their guests!
So it’s time for us once again to round up some of the best moments we saw from the Mannings and their guests, and there was plenty of good stuff to include in this list:
1
Will Eli go see the Eagles play his Giants?
"I said when I retired that I would never go back to a football game at Philly, but I think I have to break my promise (for Giants-Eagles). I think I have to go there. I can't wait to see the amount of double birds I get. Could break a record."- Eli Manning 🏈😂 #ManningCast pic.twitter.com/HzowYLzP0S

Hey, Dan Campbell: What would you do with Maher?
Eli Manning asked Dan Campbell if he'd go for 2 after Brett Maher had gone 0-for-3 on XPs.
After laughter, Campbell said, "I do think at halftime, you do talk to your kicker and say, 'Hey, listen- we're going back to you, alright? But if you don't make this one, that's it." pic.twitter.com/XuPiZwYdae

Halftime adjustments are a myth!
So says Peyton.
"I don't know if I ever made a halftime adjustment in my entire 18-year career. I think that's the biggest myth in football- the halftime adjustments. You go in, you use the restroom, you eat a couple of oranges, and then the head coach says, 'Alright, let's go!'"- Peyton Manning pic.twitter.com/j17FWpXChq
