We accept reached the terminal "Monday Night Football" matchup of the 2021 NFL season, and this ane will occur during the 2022 NFL playoffs. This marks the first Mon night game in NFL postseason history, and it is shaping up to be a good 1.

Two NFC W rivals, the Cardinals and the Rams, volition foursquare off for the third time this season. They take split the series today with the grudge match beingness the most important game in each team'south respective seasons.

NFL fans will certainly enjoy this competition and fans of the Manningcast will as well. Peyton and Eli Manning will be back on the ESPN airwaves later missing last week while there was no "Monday Dark Football game" action happening.

The Mannings volition have but three guests as a role of "Monday Night Football game with Peyton and Eli" for wild-card weekend. However, their lineup is a potent i, featuring a current thespian, a quondam thespian and a celebrity that will provide solid commentary on the game. Unfortunately, the current player is not still alive in the playoff race, and then at that place will be no run a risk at the "Manningcast expletive" striking once more until side by side season.

Viewers will be hoping that the Mannings can capture lightning in a bottle again like they did during Marshawn Lynch'due south advent in Calendar week seven. He appeared on the prove and admitted he had been drinking Hennessy (and dropped plenty of profanity  during the broadcast). That episode itself was legendary, every bit it was also the one during which Eli Manning famously showed the camera the double bird. That prompted three viewer-submitted complaints to the FCC.

Will the Mannings be able to meridian that evidence and those moments? We'll encounter shortly plenty, but viewers will enjoy the final Manningcast of the season either way.

Here's a await at the invitee list for the wild-menu weekend airing of "Mon Night Football game with Peyton and Eli" during the Rams vs. Cardinals game.

More than: Is the Manningcast cursed?

Manningcast guests for wild-card weekend

  • Larry Fitzgerald, one-time Cardinals receiver
  • Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, role player and owner of the XFL
  • Russell Wilson, Seahawks quarterback

Larry Fitzgerald

It always seemed likely that the Mannings would lure in a Cardinals fable for this broadcast. Fitzgerald and Kurt Warner were the most prominent options, and Fitzgerald concluded upwardly getting the nod this fourth dimension.

Fitzgerald is the Cardinals' all-time leading receiver and has notched 17,492 yards and 121 touchdowns during his career. He played under Kliff Kingsbury and with Kyler Murray during their first two seasons in the desert, then he probably has a unique insight into the working relationship of those 2.

Fitzgerald hasn't officially retired from the NFL yet, but he decided non to play this yr. Perhaps he'll make a retirement annunciation on this broadcast if he decides that he is finally prepare to hang up his cleats.

IYER: Manningcast expletive is undefeated, but will it continue in the playoffs?

Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson

"The Rock" is a big football game fan. Before he became an actor, he was a wrestler. Before he was a wrestler, he played football game at Miami (FL). His son, Dwayne Johnson Jr., spent fourth dimension on the Giants' exercise squad this yr, and so he is in tune with the league.

Why bring him on for this game? That much is a mystery, but Johnson is i of the owners of XFL, which volition endeavour to return to action in 2023. ESPN previously broadcast XFL games when information technology kickoff returned in 2020, and they were a success before the COVID-nineteen pandemic shut downward the fledgling league.

Volition The Rock talk about the XFL? That seems likely. What else volition he bring to the table? That'south for him to know, and Rams and Cardinals fans to find out.

Russell Wilson

Wilson is a not bad guest for this matchup. He has faced both the Rams and Cardinals twice this flavor, equally he plays in the NFC West. He will be able to offer some solid insight into what the teams do well and what Kyler Murray and Matthew Stafford bring to their teams.

Additionally, Wilson is, in one case over again, the subject of offseason rumors. He could go out the Seahawks, so will he open up about his plans to the Manning brothers? This volition be a good opportunity to see where his mind is at following his 10th flavor in Seattle.
