    I only want to watch when they are talking to other quarterbacks, for the most part they get in the way of watching the game. Doesn’t help that their competition for the game is Troy and Buck who are actually one of the better booths in football imo

    Their guests seem to forget there’s a football game being played.

    I enjoyed Shannon Sharpe on there cause it felt like 3 guys just talking about football as it was happening

    Is it cause people are getting tired of whatever bullshit the celebrity is pushing instead of football being talked about? I know I am. I’m also pretty sure that Peyton Manning is eager for them to shut up so he can talk about blitz pickup.

    As others have said, the show has become less about the game and more about everything else which is just not football. I came to see two football greats talk about the game I’m watching while also having a few fun brother jabs at each other.

    They turned it into a talkshow.

    I don’t mind celebrity guests but they should contribute to the commentary of the game and not just plug their latest whatever.

    I wish NBC had the rights to the Manningcast so I didn’t have to listen to two known perverts (Google it) in Tirico and Collinsworth.

    I’d watch it if I wasn’t working every Monday they’re on and I’m off when they aren’t on

    I’ve only watched it a couple of times but I liked it when it was just those two watching and talking about it. Stop having guests

    I tried watching when the Seahawks played but it just seemed so over the top and stupid. Plus they both seem to be super against Seattle so IDC for em.

    Granted the only time I’ve watched Seattle played the broncos and giants so I guess I understand the bias.

    They honestly suck. I thought it was really great at first, but there’s too much dead air, the cameos are awkward, and Peyton comes across like he’s a dickhead 100% more times than I thought he would. It plays like a twitch stream but it’s on national television. They have the means to make it work but they don’t know what they’re doing. It worked when espn had dogshit announcers on the main channel but now that it’s buck and aikman I’d rather listen to them instead of dead air and a B celebrity plugging their oatmeal or some shit while they pretend to know anything about what’s happening with a 3 second delay on each response.

    I am willingly switching to Joe Buck and Troy Aikman during games because I’d like commentary on the sport I am watching and not rambling bs about nothing. Its fun if the game is a boring trash heap to have this stuff but not all the damn time.
