Guest list for Week 5 ManningCast revealed

Peyton and Eli Manning are back for another Monday Night Football ManningCast, watching the Kansas City Chiefs and New Orleans Saints. An exciting game is expected from Arrowhead Stadium but those of us watching from home can tune into ESPN2 and see the Manning brothers break down the game. As usual, guests will appear and an exciting trio is on the schedule.

As usual, Bill Belichick will kick things off. The former New England Patriots head coach has been a staple on the ManningCast all season, working well with Peyton and Eli. Past him, there are two people with deep ties to the teams playing.

Representing Kansas City will be actor Paul Rudd, whose Chiefs fandom is well documented. A specific timeline for Rudd’s appearance is not known but he will be second of the trio. The bigger surprise might be that Rudd is not at the game himself and instead potentially watching somewhere else.

Third and final will bring the whole family together, with Archie making his first-ever appearance on the ManningCast. Archie Manning famously played quarterback for the New Orleans Saints and still lives in the Big Easy. He will join his two sons later in Monday Night Football.

Especially with the final guest, there should be plenty for Peyton and Eli to discuss with their guests. After all, they are watching Patrick Mahomes and Derek Carr face off in primetime and if you are a frequent viewer of the ManningCast, good quarterback play is what the eldest Manning enjoys more than anything.

As the tweet mentions, the broadcast will begin at 8:13 p.m. ET, just a couple of minutes before the game itself will kick off. Everyone will be hoping for a quality game so the Manning brothers can produce a great show like they usually do. Having Belichick, Rudd, and their father on hand will only make matters better.
