The Manningcast is known for its antics and special guest. But the brothers weren’t prepared for what they got out of former All-Pro running back Marshawn Lynch. Lynch was the Manning brother’s first guest of the night; for their cast of the matchup between the New Orleans Saints and Seattle Seahawks. The former Seahawks running back, who is known for saying extraordinarily little, dropped this nugget for viewers tonight. 

He also revealed his pre-game ritual before the Manningcast and it was a doozy as well.

The Manningcast started of with some fun

This cast has been filled with highlights so far. The night started off with Peyton Manning making good on his bet. After his alma mater, Tennessee, fell to Ole Miss, Manning now has to wear a Rebel jersey for the first half of this Monday night broadcast. 

Eli, a product of Ole Miss, had fun with Peyton all week ahead of a matchup between their alma maters. He first said Peyton “wimped out” on airing an alternate ESPN2 Manning Cast for the game, which the brothers have done for Monday Night Football this season; then, days later, he told his Twitter-less brother — on Twitter, of course — that if Ole Miss wins, Peyton has to wear an Ole Miss jersey on the next Manning Cast.

The game between the Tennessee Volunteers and the Ole Miss Rebels was tightly contested for most of the game. After scoring 17 straight points the Rebels had the largest lead of the night going up 24-9 midway through the second quarter. The Volunteers made it close late, scoring a touchdown to start off the fourth quarter making it 31-26. But after that drive, Tennessee failed to score on its final three possessions to lose the game. 

For Marshawn Lynch, he went from saying little while playing to dropping the F-bomb on live national TV. It was an entertaining this for all watching but not so much for the Mannings. After returning from commercial break, Peyton issued an apology for Lynch’s language.
