ManningCast week 5: Who will be the guests for Saints vs Chiefs?

After being with the auditorium in Week 1 (Jets @ 49ers) and Week 2 (Falcons @ Eagles), it’s again time for the duo of quarterback brothers to enlighten us with their broadcasts of the prime-time Monday Night Football Game this week between the reigning SuperBowl champions, the Kansas City Chiefs, and the New Orleans Saints.

Peyton Manning, the renowned former quarterback of the Indianapolis Colts and Denver Broncos, along with his brother Eli, who also made a name for himself as a quarterback with the New York Giants, have consistently attracted A-list guests to their popular show ManningCast.

This week’s prime-time match-up between the Kansas City Chiefs and New Orleans Saints is no exception. Fans can look forward to seeing the charismatic Paul Rudd, famous for his role as Ant-Man and one of the celebrity Chiefs superfans, appearing on the alternate telecast this Monday. The exciting announcement was chaperoned by a typically witty and clever video from Manning’s own production company, Omaha Productions.

The ManningCast will kick off a five-week consecutive run starting with Monday’s Game. This popular show, which airs for only ten weeks during the regular season, will feature actor Paul Rudd in the third quarter and former Saints quarterback and pater familiae Archie Manning in the fourth quarter. It will be interesting to see what comic relief stories they will share with their dad tonight.

By the way, Paul Rudd will be the third non-Football ManningCast guest this season, joining Adam Sandler and Miles Teller.

Additionally, the first quarter will see the usual weekly appearance of former New England Patriots head coach Bill Belichick.
